WATCH: John Wick mythos grows with cool fan film

February 17th, 2017 by Marc Comments

The legend of Jon Wick continues to grow with the release of the second film recently.

Now we have a cool fan film to add to the roster of content wither out there or likely to come in future months and years.

John Wick Origins: Kirill comes from the mind of Paul Drechsler-Martell. In it we witness the day that Kirill (the bodyguard protector of Russian crime boss Viggo Tarssov) had to prove himself while out on assignment, making an exchange with some gangsters that intended to double crossTarssov, keeping the goods and money for themselves.

Unfortunately, the gangsters don’t know who it is they’re messing with, while we get to see some (unofficial) backstory of how Kirill became a killer equal in deadly skill to John.

While the film may not have the most sophisticated special effects it definitely has the John Wick fight choreography down to a tee.

Check it out above.

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
