John Wick digital mini-series exploring The Continental now available

Lionsgate is pulling the curtain back on the world of The High Table with "Truth Serum," a digital mini-series that further explores the ruthless landscape of Keanu Reeves' JOHN WICK franchise. The series consists of four episodes and stars Eddie Jemison (THE PUNISHER, VERONICA MARS) as Banks Jenkins, a conspiracy-obsessed talk show host who's determined to "speak the truth" about The High Table. According to Jenkins, The High Table appears to be a "cabal with a global reach and a willingness to kill." As Jenkins continues to tumble down his rabbit hole of paranoia, he claims that The High Table will be the end of democracy as we know it, and that the shadowy organization is preparing for a hostile global takeover unlike the world has ever seen.

Presented in a "found footage" format, each episode of Truth Serum investigates a variety of conspiracy theories that all seemingly connect to The Continental, a mysterious hotel that caters to the will and whims of some of the world's most enigmatic and lethal assassins. As Jenkins continues his search for truth, he inadvertently places himself on The High Table's radar, which as you know, is a less than ideal circumstance.

It's to be thought that "Truth Serum" is part of a clever ad campaign for the home release of JOHN WICK: CHAPTER 3 – PARABELLUM, which is now available on Digital and arrives on 4K Ultra HD Combo Pack, DVD, and On Demand September 10th from Lionsgate.

Here's a synopsis for JOHN WICK: CHAPTER 3 – PARABELLUM:

After gunning down a member of the High Table — the shadowy international assassin's guild — legendary hit man John Wick finds himself stripped of the organization's protective services. Now stuck with a $14 million bounty on his head, Wick must fight his way through the streets of New York as he becomes the target of the world's most ruthless killers.

Directed by Chad Stahelski and written by Derek Kolstad, the movie also stars Halle Berry, Ian McShane, Asia Kate Dillion, Mark Dacascos, Lance Reddick, Anjelica Huston and Laurence Fishburne.

If you're hungry for more John Wick-related entertainment while you wait for news about the next chapter of the franchise, I highly recommend that you give "Truth Serum" a watch. It's entertaining, a bit silly, and serves as a great way to whet your appetite for a John Wick marathon.
