Jumping from one manga-based character to a comic book-based one, Reeves portrayed the brooding antihero, John Constantine, in this 2005 action thriller. The cast includes Rachel Weisz, Shia LaBeouf, Tilda Swinton, and Peter Stormare.
The 54-year-old plays the titular role in the "John Wick" franchise. Wick, "the man, the myth, the legend," is a former assassin who's forced to come out of retirement after someone kills his dog.
