10 Actors You Had No Idea Produced Awesome Movies
7. Eva Longoria - John Wick
A producer will often have more than their fair share of input when it comes to the movie they're funding. Some movies aren't funded by one, two, or three people, but instead a studio that has its own investors. One such studio is Thunder Road Films, the studio behind John Wick.
Upon finishing the movie and seeing the credits roll, you might have noticed one name credited as a producer that made you raise your eyebrow: Eva Longoria. Yes, the Desperate Housewives star helped produce the gritty action movie starring Keanu Reeves as a retired hitman out for revenge.
If this makes you think she didn't know what she signed up for, you might be right. If you watch the director's commentary version of the film, they note that they never actually met her in person; they were simply given her money to spend.
Subsequently, she did not produce any future movies in the franchise, but her name will forever be etched in the credits of the first.
