There, a young Winston Scott (Colin Woodell) would go from a cocky charlatan into the manager of the criminal underworld most sacred locations. The Continental: From the world of John Wick is expected to explain the details of how Winston achieved that position. Throughout three nights, John Wick fans will see both new and familiar faces check into this iconic location to expand the universe like never before. To find out who will be roaming the lobby of the upcoming action series, here is our complete cast and character guide for The Continental: From the World of John Wick.
Colin Woodell as Winston Scott
One of John Wick's greatest allies has always been Winston Scott, played in the films by Deadwood star Ian McShane. For the prequel series, Scott will be played by The Flight Attendant and Ambulance star Colin Woodell.
The young version of Winston Scott in The Continental: From the World of John Wick is a suave and cocky womanizer who seemingly has little to no interest in the complex criminal underworld. That changes when his brother, Frankie Scott (Ben Robson), makes some enemies with the wrong people. One of those people is the Continental Hotel's current manager, Cormac (Mel Gibson), who becomes a significant antagonist in the upcoming series.
Later in the John Wick films, Winston repeatedly conflicts with his manager duties to the high table and his loyal friendship with Johnathan. When John is labeled "excommunicado" in John Wick: Chapter 2, Winston does everything in his power to give his friend a chance. That doesn't go unnoticed by the High Table, who order John to kill Winston in John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum. John thankfully refuses, but it costs Winston dearly in the next chapter of John's story.
