Acclaimed action director, fight choreographer and stunt coordinator Kenji Tanigaki will direct The Reckoner, his follow-up to breakout hit The Furious, with Lionsgate acquiring the project and Anthony and Joe Russo's AGBO producing. John Wick creator Derek Kolstad writes and produces, and Peter Dinklage stars. It marks another step in Tanigaki's move from second-unit and fight-choreography credits to headlining studio features — a track worth noting for performers who work in his rehearsal-heavy, camera-integrated action style.
