Break out the nunchucks because Keanu Reeves has officially closed a deal to return as John Wick in Lionsgate’s animated prequel movie about the legendary hitman.

As previously announced, the story recounts the origins of Wick as he completes the Impossible Task — the killing of all of his rivals in one night — to free himself from his obligation to the High Table and earn the right to be with the love of his life, Helen.
