10 Fascinating Facts You Didn't Know About John Wick

When looking for intimidating frames and men of monstrous proportions, there is no better place to turn than to the worlds of basketball and sports entertainment; and that is exactly what the producers of John Wick did when casting the movies.

For the original, former WWE superstar Kevin Nash has a small role as a Russian bouncer for the nightclub that John is entering, thanking John for giving him the night off rather than killing him on the spot. Having such a massive man like Nash give John the utmost respect really created a sense of just how dangerous Wick is in this world.

And keeping this reputation building intact for John Wick 3, the producers reached out to Philadelphia 76ers' 7-foot-and3-inches tall Boban Marjanovic. He appears at the beginning of the film, trying to get a jump on Wick's excommunication from the assassin world by killing him in a library.

Unfortunately for Marjanovic, even an unprepared John Wick is a formidable foe.
