How much time has passed between John Wick 1 and 4?

John Wick: Chapter 4 Ending Explainer
We see the fourth installment end with a duel between John and Caine, two former friends pitted against each other at the behest of the High Table. John seeks his freedom from the High Table, while Caine is hoping to earn the freedom of his daughter. They use ceremonial dueling pistols, shooting each other from 30 paces, 20 paces and 10 paces away. Only one man survives.
Who is Mr. Nobody in John Wick: Chapter 4?
Mr. Nobody is introduced to us early in the film, checking into the lobby of the Osaka Continental. He jokes with the concierge that he’s the emotional support human for his highly-trained German Shepherd. Later in the movie, we hear Mr. Nobody is referenced as an elite tracker, and we see him receiving the same bounty information as other assassins. While his true motivations aren’t exactly clear, he ends up becoming more of an ally than a foe to John.
John Wick’s Family Mysteries
Was Winston John Wick’s Dad?
Perhaps to be decided! We see the fourth movie end with Winston saying “farewell, my son,” though we are unsure if he means it literally, or even how much time has passed since the climactic scenes of the fourth movie. Throughout the film series, John never references Winston as a father, nor refers to Winston any other way other than “Winston” – though, the two do share a unique friendship, one that is called into question by the High Table. Winston is the only character in the series to call John, Johnathan, which could signal a different relationship.
Is Marcus John Wick’s Dad?
Marcus, who we see in the first movie, appears to be only an old friend of John’s. It’s easy to wonder if there’s a family connection between the two with Marcus’ desire to keep John alive and aid him against Viggo Tarasov. It seems unlikely that Marcus is John Wick’s father, though.
Iconic Elements
What car does John Wick drive?
The car that jumpstarts John Wick’s ire in the first film is a 1969 Ford Mustang Boss 429, though the actual car shown in the movie is a classic Mustang Mach 1. However, throughout the series, Wick drives several muscle cars, including a 2011 Dodge Charger SXT, a 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS and a 1971 Plymouth Barracuda, among others that he uses in a pinch.
What gun does John Wick use?
The better question might be, what weapon doesn’t John Wick use. Wick kills in a variety of ways, including with a pencil, but some of the iconic moments from the films show Wick using the following handguns: Colt 1903, Glock 26, Glock 34, Kimber Warrior 1911 Remington 1875, Pit Viper, among many, many more.
How many people die in John Wick 4?
Multiple sources indicate that at least 140 people die in the fourth movie.

In the post-credit scene, we see Akira looking to extract her own vengeance against Caine, which could be the setup for a spinoff movie.
