Lionsgate has set a release date for John Wick: Chapter Three.

As reported by The Hollywood Reporter, the third film in the Keanu Reeves-led action series will hit theaters on May 17, 2019.

This will be the first entry to be released during the summer movie season. The first John Wick film opened in October while this year's John Wick: Chapter Two hit theaters in February.

Derek Kolstad, who wrote John Wick 1 and 2, is confirmed to return to pen the upcoming third installment. No word yet on who'll direct.

A John Wick shared universe is also reportedly being eyed by Lionsgate.
