Keanu Reeves, Chad Stahelski, and more honor Lance Reddick at the Los Angeles premiere of John Wick: Chapter 4
“Lance is a people person, a special artist, a gentleman of grace and dignity,” Keanu Reeves said of the late actor
While the Los Angeles premiere of John Wick: Chapter 4 celebrated the fourth installment in the action franchise, much of the night was spent honoring one missing cast member: The late Lance Reddick. Just days before the premiere event, the actor died at the age of 60.
Fellow John Wick co-stars such as Keanu Reeves, as well as the film’s director Chad Stahelski offered eulogies on the red carpet for the recently deceased actor.
“Lance is a people person, a special artist, a gentleman of grace and dignity,” Reeves told Variety at last night’s event. “It’s just really something special, every time he stepped on set, to watch the passion he had for his work. It’s really easy to work with him.”
“It’s not just one memory. It’s not just one day. It’s a collective. I had Lance in my life almost 10 years,” Stahelski said of Reddick. “Although that was done over the course of four films, we’ve worked together on other things. I just got to be happy and be proud of the fact that I got to spend so much time with him. We’re going to miss him.”
