It is a film that proved an unexpected hit and has already spawned three sequels - and now ‘John Wick’ fans will have the chance to experience the action movie franchise for themselves.
If you’re planning a trip to Las Vegas later this year, pencil in a stop-off at the forthcoming tourist attraction that is set to open in Sin City later in 2024.
Described as an “immersive and interactive experience” that will transport fans into the “fantastical underworld” of the Keanu Reeves films, there will be an element of immersive theatre involved in the production, which is made by the same company which has produced immersive SAW and Blair Witch Project experiences in the past.
The official blurb reads: “The John Wick Experience is an approximately 12,000-square-foot ticketed attraction located on the AREA15 campus, a curated collection of best-in-class immersive experiences, interactive attractions, events and entertainment. The new experience blends immersive theatre and highly themed cinematic environments to create an interactive journey that transcends reality. Guests step through the doors of the Las Vegas Continental and into the fantastical underworld of John Wick, where they navigate a high stakes adventure as well as visit a themed bar and retail shop open to the general public.”
It adds: “Each group of guests will be tasked with specific missions, playing out in unique ways with characters, mythology and iconography from the Wick universe. They may rub elbows with Continental staff, assassins, crime bosses, or other curious guests like themselves within the relative safety of the Continental. Guests will be drawn into the culture, trusted with secrets, and invited to private areas of the Continental, promising an authentic and compelling action-packed experience.”
Probably best to leave your emotional support dog at home for this one.
