John Wick director bringing Lush to theaters (well, ideally…)

Chad Stahelski, director of those shit-hot “John Wick” flicks, is producing Duane Swierczynski’s feature adaptation of “Lush”.
This one is based on a short story, also by the director, about … well, I dunno, guns and stuff!?
Lionsgate, who house the “Wick” flicks,  are producing and distributing.
“When I read Lush, I saw what a great film could be made from Duane’s short story. I’m excited to see the world-building we can come up with for this fresh new spy film,” Stahelski said in a statement via THR.

Swierczynski added, “One of my fondest memories is watching John Wick while taking a break from a mystery convention in Long Beach and being completely blown away. With that film, Chad Stahelski put action movies on notice, so I couldn’t be more thrilled to team up with him and Lionsgate.”
