For those who don’t know, John Wick didn’t originally have that title but was called something else entirely. Now that title has been revealed.
In an interview with Comicbook.com, the franchise’s co-creator Derek Kolstad (who is also the screenwriter) shared that lead star Keanu Reeves kept calling the movie ‘John Wick’ instead of its original title, Scorn, so the studio just decided to go with it.
Kolstad said:

The only reason it’s called John Wick is that Keanu kept referring to it as John Wick. Marketing was like, ‘Dude, that’s four to five million dollars in free advertising so far, so it’s John Wick instead of Scorn’. I can’t imagine it being Scorn now.”
John Wick 4 release date was delayed due to the COVID-19 outbreak, and the projected date for its arrival is May 27, 2022.
