Fans have reacted unhappily online to news that Mel Gibson has been cast in the upcoming John Wick prequel series.
As confirmed by Deadline, Gibson will appear in The Continental, a John Wick prequel series to air via Starz.
The series was originally ordered in 2018 and will explore the inner-workings of the titular hotel from the John Wick series, which is a refuge for assasins.
He had previously appeared in Australian television series The Sullivans in the Seventies and occasional appearances on shows since, but never regularly.
