The inspiration behind this video:

John Wick: Chapter 4 needs to end the franchise's relatively compressed time frame. Keanu Reeves's portrayal of John Wick, a.k.a. the Baba Yaga, has taken the former assassin out of retirement into his ongoing conflict with numerous enemies in the assassin underworld. Following the cliffhanger ending of John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum, John's story will take a major twist going into John Wick 4.

Going into John Wick 4, John and the Bowery King (Laurence Fishburne) have teamed up with their shared vendettas against the High Table, while may set up a sizable time gap from the ending of John Wick 3, due to the intensive nature of their undertaking. The trailer for John Wick 4 indicates such a time jump with John recovering from his fall from the top of New York City's Continental, as well as John Wick's martial arts training to fight the High Table's assassins, making the move from the third to fourth film make more canonical sense. Having a longer-than-usual gap from John Wick 3 to John Wick 4 could also be a great benefit by allowing the series to integrate a new story structure - moving away from the current shorter timeline in order to set up for grander moments.
