Eva Longoria's $6 Million Investment Saved 'John Wick' Franchise

The actress stepped in at the last minute to prevent the film's shutdown, securing its billion-dollar success.

Directors Chad Stahelski and David Leitch revealed that 'John Wick' was days away from shutting down due to a $6 million funding shortfall.
Eva Longoria provided the crucial gap financing through CAA, ensuring the film's completion just 24 hours before production was set to stop.
The film grossed $86 million against its estimated $20-30 million budget, marking the start of a billion-dollar franchise.
Longoria's investment was kept secret from the directors and Keanu Reeves until after filming was complete.
The directors expressed gratitude to Longoria, who later remarked that it was the best money she ever spent due to the significant return on investment.
