Prolific actor Lance Reddick has a number of projects yet to be released following his death on Friday at the age of 60.
Reddick is in “John Wick: Chapter 4,” opening March 24th. His role as Charon, the concierge at the Continental Hotel, a New York hotel that’s also the center of the underworld, is a favorite among franchise buffs.
In a joint statement, director Chad Stahelski and franchise star Keanu Reeves said, “We are deeply saddened and deeply saddened by the loss of our beloved friend and colleague Lance Reddick. He was a consummate professional and a pleasure to work with.”
Riddick will also be in the upcoming Ballerina, which is directed by Len Wiseman and stars Ana de Armas in a spin-off that is part of the “John Wick” universe. A source familiar with the production said Reddick shot his scenes for the movie.
Reddick has a role in the upcoming movie “White Men Can’t Jump,” which is a remake of the 1992 movie. The new movie is set to debut on Hulu May 19.
Riddick will also be in the TV series Percy Jackson and the Olympians, where he is said to play the god Zeus. The eight-episode first season was reported to have finished earlier this year and is expected to premiere on Disney+ sometime in 2024.
“He was an actor,” said Annabel Dunn, producer on “The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial,” directed by William Friedkin and based on the play by Hermann Wouk.
Riddick finished filming his role in the movie in mid-February. Now in post-production, “The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial” is getting a potential festival plan in place and will likely air on Paramount+ and Showtime later in the year.
Riddick also has a role in John Ridley’s Shirley, which features Regina King as Shirley Chisholm. The movie is being released by Netflix, and it has no release date.
