Very likely 56%
Likely 16%
50/50 12%
Unlikely 16%
Very unlikely 0%

He's already killed over 200 in just two movies taking place within a week of one another but it's been suggested that he's off his prime and he's had a long history of killing.

I don’t think it’s likely. All of the hits in the movies were because they came after him. I think in the past he gained his reputation because he was able to complete his contracts cleanly. To me that means without unnecessary deaths. A professional assassin should only kill the target he was paid to kill. Killing anyone else is sloppy and invites unwanted scrutiny by law enforcement. I would wager that Wick executed every assignment methodically, but I also doubt that his number of accepted missions is close to 800. If he was to neutralize one target per week every week it would take him 15 years to reach 800 hits.

@Penguin-Dust: Fair point, though he did destroy a large mob which paved the way for Viggo (the dad from the first film) to found his empire, that must have been a huge event because Viggo said "the bodies he buried that day laid the foundation of what we are now". I'd like to see that impossible task explored in a comic book or a game, the director wants to build his own mythology and expand the John Wick universe. Sorry for straying a little off topic.

He killed nearly 100 people in one movie. Over the course of a career which lasted likely around 20 years, I’d say it’s very likely he killed over 1000 people.

Very likely. As you said, he's already killed over a 5th of that, and he's a retired assassin. If in retirement he's killed all of those people, imagine how many he killed back when worked.

He was killing people before he joined the mob so its likely he has passed that.

Very likely.

He killed around 130 people in his first movie I think.

In a massive career with some previous missions which were apparantly legendary I'd say he has to have killed over 1000

It is likely that he already did Thanos' job, and he didn't even know it yet.

Very likely. We know very little of Wick's background but *pure speculation* I believe he has military training (Marine?) where he probably racked up kills, in addition to just his hitman kills.

Very unlikely. He would have to kill one person every 4 days or so.
