Mason Thames Joins Donnie Yen's JOHN WICK Spinoff CAINE
Mason Thames ("Black Phone", "How to Train Your Dragon" live-action remake) has signed on to star in Lionsgate's upcoming "John Wick" spinoff "Caine", directed by and starring Hong Kong actor, filmmaker, martial artist, and filmmaker Donnie Yen, who first appeared as the titular blind assassin in "John Wick: Chapter 4". The screenplay is penned by Mattson Tomlin ("The Batman Part II") and Michael McGrale. The film is currently in production.

The cast also includes Dacre Montgomery and Rina Sawayama, who will also reprise her role as Akira. In a statement it was revealed that "Caine" will be "shaped by Yen's signature approach to action filmmaking, blending precision choreography with emotional storytelling, an evolution of the style he pioneered in films such as 'Ip Man', 'Flash Point', and 'Hero'?".

Plot and character details are being kept under wraps, but it has been reported that it will continue Caine's story arc following the events of "John Wick: Chapter 4", as Caine has been freed from his obligations to The High Table.

"Caine" is creatively overseen by "John Wick" franchise producers Basil Iwanyk and Erica Lee via Thunder Road, and helmer Chad Stahelski ("John Wick" 1-4), who produces through his 87Eleven Entertainment production banner. "John Wick" star Keanu Reeves will also produce alongside John Saunders. Yen and Courtney Brock executive produce.

Thames recently finished work on "How to Train Your Dragon 2", and can next be seen starring in the coming-of-age road comedy "Nimrods", and Macon Blair's "Idiots".
