September 22 will mark the highly anticipated debut of the three-part series The Continental: From The World of John Wick on Prime Video. This enthralling series will delve into the origin of the legendary hotel-for-assassins, the focal point of the John Wick universe. Viewers will be transported back to 1970s New York City, following the journey of a young Winston Scott as he confronts a past he thought he had left behind. Winston embarks on a perilous quest through the hotel’s enigmatic underworld in his ambition to seize control of the very place where his reign will eventually unfold.
Stepping into the shoes of the iconic Ian McShane, Colin Woodell assumes the role of young Winston, while newcomer Ayomide Adegun brilliantly takes on the character of Charon, succeeding the late Lance Reddick. The star-studded cast also includes Mel Gibson, Mishel Prada, Jeremy Bobb, Ben Robson, Nhung Kate, Jessica Allain, and Hubert Point-Du Jour.
Executive producer Basil Iwankyk said, “In our show, The Continental, we finally have space to explore these characters, how they became who they are, and how The Continental became the epicentre of this world.” Iwankyk continued, “Combine that with introducing new characters that are as compelling as any in the John Wick universe. Action that’s crazy cool and inventive. Easter eggs that will excite the hardcore Wick fans. And what I love the most: a vision of ‘70s New York that embodies the sexiness, edginess, and visceral style that the franchise is known for. This show will look/sound/smell cooler than any show out there.”
