Lionsgate confirmed last month that it’s bringing their highly-anticipated sequelJohn Wick: Chapter 2toNew York Comic Con, where the first trailer will be unveiled by starKeanu Reeves. With just a few days left until the panel, the studio has unveiled the first trailer preview, which shows just a tiny taste of the intense action fans are in store for. We’ll be sure to bring you the first full trailer as soon as it arrives on Saturday afternoon.
Lionsgatedebuted the trailer preview on Twitter yesterday, which expands the scene teased in the first poster. The one-sheet showedJohn Wick(Keanu Reeves) getting measured for a new suit, and in this trailer, we see him in Rome, meeting with an Italian tailor. The tailor asks him if this suit is for a “formal event or a social affair,” with John revealing it’s a social affair. John’s idea of a social affair is certainly much different than ours, as he’s seen taking aim at his unseen enemies with a large rifle.

Bound by a blood oath to help him, John travels to Rome where he squares off against some of the world’s deadliest killers.
