Hey there, everyone! If you're a fan of John Wick, we highly recommend checking out this interview. 

Recently, we had our reactions to The Continental, and after watching all three episodes, the showrunner Kirk Ward reached out to us via email. He extended an invitation to have a chat with himself and director Albert Hughes, and we're excited to share our fantastic conversation with you! Although we had a lot of questions, we couldn't cover them all because the conversation was so engaging. 

We're looking forward to discussing their future projects in another interview, but for now, we hope you enjoy this one. Don't forget that we have included time stamps on the YouTube video for your convenience. Thanks for tuning in!

Time stamps are on the video.

This was cool af guys!!! I'm confident y'all could get other showrunners/directors from some of our other favorite movie/show series. The final few pages of most Invincible comic issues would feature neat responses to mail-in letters from fans, so I bet Robert Kirkman would be open to discussion! He's good about fan interaction in general. Maybe even someone from ATLA, Cobra Kai, Peacemaker, who knows. Loved all the music talk about 1:15 in lol, and those two were just super down-to-earth in general.

These 2 were great. And we barely asked any of our questions lol. This easily could've been a 4 to 5-hour conversation. We hope to have them back.
