Is The Continental on Peacock a series or film?

The Continental on Peacock is a series. The crime drama will have a total of three episodes on the streaming service, starting on Friday, Sept. 22, 2023. Episode 2 will be released on Sept. 29, and the conclusion to the action-packed three-parter begins streaming on Oct. 6. It’s not a very long show, but I have no doubt we’re going to learn and enjoy it very much!

The crime drama explores the younger years of two John Wick characters we know well, Winston and Charon. We’re going to see how the hotel owner comes to take charge of the hotel-for-assassins as he gets pulled into it to “face a past he thought he’s left behind,” per the synopsis. He has to find his way through the hotel’s “mysterious underworld” to eventually make it his “future throne.”

The Continental premieres Friday, Sept. 22, 2023 on Peacock. The next two episodes of the three-part series stream Sept. 29 and Oct. 6.
