Now, fans have something to look forward to, as the creators have created a new spinoff show based on the famous Continental Hotel introduced in the movies.
The Continental: A Spinoff
The Continental is a highly anticipated miniseries based on the chain of hotels known as The Continental, present worldwide, acting as a haven with no criminal activities within its boundaries. The series will have three episodes with a running time as long as a full-blown movie, i.e., at least ninety minutes.
Plot
The Continental series was set in the dangerous streets of New York City in 1975. The show revolves around Winston, played by Ian McShane in the movies, who will lead the show. Fans of the film may recognize his character from the third John Wick movie, where he played the evil guy. The show plans to explore his nature and rise to get control of the chain of hotels while dealing with gangsters on the streets of New York. This spinoff show promises to be as thrilling and exciting as its predecessor.
Cast and Release

The miniseries is set for release in September 2023; fans can’t wait to watch it.
The Continental: More about the Show
The show was created by Greg Coolidge, Kirk Ward, and Shawn Simmons, who have already been involved in the John Wick world. The makers have released a poster for the show, with fans at the edge of their seats in anticipation of a teaser. The sign has a green-colored lift-button panel, with the button to the ninth floor lit up, maybe hinting towards a possible release date for the show’s first episode. The poster also has the words ‘Prepare for Check-in’ written at the top, which may be a clue for the soon-to-be-released teaser for the show.
