9 John Wick Crossovers You Didn’t Know You Needed

John Wick: No, There Won’t Be Another Pixels

Crossover: Pixels (2015)

Hey, did you know that we could still get a Pixels sequel? It’s not likely – even Paper Towns beat that junker’s opening weekend – but I don’t know, stranger things have happened. It’s totally possible that Adam Sandler and company show up to beat some more 8-bit butt – but what if Wick stopped them first?!

I have no intentions of making a crossover work, but would just love if the next John Wick movie opened with him killing each main Pixels character with ease. Just to ensure another Pixels will never happen. A quick double-tap, silent and deadly. Maybe the government had second thoughts and wants to erase the whole event from history? Who cares. Let’s just make sure Pixels 2 isn’t given an extra life.

Better safe than sorry, right?

John Wick: A Professional Accomplice

Crossover: Léon: The Professional (1994)

Let’s get real again. Why not take one of the better hitman films over the last few decades, and mash it with an up-and-coming classic? The world of Léon colliding with John Wick, by using not-so-little Mathilda (Natalie Portman) as the connective tissue. That’s my bid here.

Fans have long been calling for a Mathilda-led sequel, with Portman taking up the mantle of sharp-shooting hitgirl. Why not introduce Wick into the mix as her unlikely mentor? Maybe she wasn’t always serious about a life of death-dealing, until hearing about some expansive assassin collective. A switch flips, and she wants in. Mathilda still remembers some of Léon’s teachings, and it’s revealed that she’s been training a steady trigger-finger in secret. Wick sees something in the girl that sparks his interest (not romantic, but friendship), and the two form a team of sorts.

Maybe then you can go the route of having them thrust into some kind of dramatic scheme, where they’re framed or hunted. You’ve got Wick the assassin and Mathilda the protege – until she proves herself an equal talent. Any way you play it, I want the Wick/Mathilda duo put into action. This one ranks pretty high on my dream crossover list.
