Vin Diesel came under some heavy fire when he decided to compare himself to J.R.R. Tolkien and embrace comparisons between Fast & Furious and The Lord of the Rings, but it doesn’t seem quite so far-fetched when John Wick director Chad Stahelski draws the exact same parallels.
While The Fast Saga has been teetering on the brink of being a full-blown superhero series for years now, it isn’t quite a sweeping fantasy fable in the same way as Peter Jackson’s legendary trilogy. On the other hand, Keanu Reeves’ sharp-suited assassin is embedded in an underworld ripe with mythological inspirations and its own inbuilt lore, which makes it a lot easier to join the dots between the Continental and Middle-earth.
