Doing his thing: Keanu Reeves, 56, was rocking a unique style on the set of John Wicks 4 in Berlin, Germany on Monday as he wore clips in his hair at the Claerchen’s Ballhaus beer garden

The star was wearing a black T-shirt as he chatted to production staff and crew, some of whom were wearing facemasks – as strongly advised by city authorities to stop the spread of coronavirus.

Keanu could be seen sporting some designer stubble which had been carefully shaped.

He looked pleased to be at work as he smiled while going about his business.

Keanu is in Berlin to film John Wick 4, in which he plays the character of the same name.

Work on the next installment of the action thriller franchise began shortly after the release of its third film, John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum, in May of 2019.

In April of last year, series director Chad Stahelski spoke to Collider and noted that the project’s creative team had set their bar much higher for the upcoming film from its inception.

‘We submitted an idea or thematic [plan] and it was really big. So, we’re talking about doing a little bit more than a [John Wick 4], or something like that, and trying to develop that,’ he said.

The filmmaker also expressed that the development team had a relatively fleshed-out story in mind for the forthcoming feature and that they were glad to have a roadmap of sorts.

Stahelski said, ‘I’m in a happy place where we are in development…we’re in a place where we know what we want do and where we want to do it.’

The fourth entry in the action franchise was originally scheduled to make its debut sometime this year, although the global pandemic forced the release date back to May 27 2022

Production for the fourth entry in the franchise will take place in Berlin and Paris.

New York City and Japan will serve as additional filming locations.

The crew behind the film originally intended to shoot back-to-back for another John Wick feature, although this idea was later shot down, leaving the possibility of a fifth movie in limbo.
