Nothing is ever as it seems other than that you can burn the Wick at both ends in Vegas.
OK Keanu Reeves didn’t share his plans with the audience at the LA corporate lunch where he performed with his band Dogstar.
That he would be coming back from the dead to play hitman John Wick.
Probably put off, to be fair, by the screaming Italian contingent who wanted to kidnap him and bring him back to Il Bel Paese with him.
Now the details of how he pulls off that trick are still to be revealed by our American friends.
But while we wait for the movie’s release we can binge again on the four films to date.
And a new John Wick Experience like no other in the City of Tricks, Las Vegas.
In the Area 25, an immersive art and entertainment district just moments from the Las Vegas Strip.
Your inner John Wick
This being Vegas they, of course, build up the tension, telling us…
‘As you cross the threshold of the John Wick Las Vegas Continental, you’ll embark on an action-packed mission.
‘Where every choice matters and every encounter adds to the experience.
‘The Manager and John Wick Las Vegas Continental staff await your arrival – are they friend or foe?
‘You’ll have to roll the dice and decide quickly – or face the consequences.’
JWE is described as a dynamic landscape that combines immersive cinematic environments with interactive missions.
And our hosts challenge us to either ‘obey the rules or defy the High Table? Only time will tell.’
Best Wick bar none
Of course all that adrenaline is thirsty work and JWE reward their guests with some reviving drinks at the end of it all.
At the John Wick Las Vegas Continental Bar where every drink is an artful blend of precision and indulgence
Tickets are $59.99 which we reckon is good value to channel your inner John Wick.
But we’d recommend you leave him at the door when you leave.
As you progress out onto the Strip to burn the Wick at both ends in Vegas.
