Paul Mescal is known for appearing in emotional, heartbreaking roles, and it was one of his earliest hits that led Ridley Scott to cast him in the upcoming Gladiator II.

With the John Wick franchise, director Chad Stahelski wanted to blend realistic martial arts, driving, and firearms, with a sprinkle of Hollywood magic.
