It was report a month ago thatBerry was circlingJohn Wick : Chapter 3 , but the Oscar - winner has now made it official via a position to herInstagramaccount ( see below).THRis further reporting that Berry will not be playing the film ’s villain , which aligns with the previous paper about her would - be use in the film . Not much else is known at the import about her character ( who is named Sofia ) , though it ’s been suggested that she ’s a center - aged mother with a small child of her own .
Berry is far from a alien to franchise fare , having previously played Storm in multipleX - Menfilms and appear in both theJames BondandKingsmanmovie series . While Berry was good in the middle of the action at law in those motion picture , it sound like herJohn Wickcharacter might be more of an average someone who gets pulled into the underworld of bravo and sea wolf for hire that John keeps try in vain to leave behind him . Then again , given that Berry has already prove her action mechanism star bona fides many time over , she may well be playing a professional striking - woman who teams up with John on his increasingly desperate commission to deflect a untimely destruction .
Even if John makes it out ofChapter 3still breathing , this might be the terminal of the route for him . Stahelski has said the film willcontinue to expand theJohn Wickuniverseand further explore how it and the High Table solve , but at the same time propose a"nice completion"to John ’s personal journey . It ’s potential then that , whoever she is , Berry ’s character will offer John the hope of a new beginning and a life far aside from the Hell that he thought his escaped back when he first accomplished his famously " impossible " task .
