Chad Stahelski Movies: Every Feature Directed, 2014–2023
6 features directed, 2014–2023.
INT. CUTTING ROOM. DAY
Chad Stahelski has 6 directing credits on record, from 2014 to 2023. A directing filmography reads differently from an acting one: the gaps are the story, because a film takes years and a gap usually means a project that did not happen rather than a year off. 4 of the titles carry a recorded gross, and they are nominal figures, useful for scale, not for ranking.

Where the credits fall
One frame per year from 2014 to 2023, filled where a credit lands, empty where none does. The empty frames are the informative part: a filmography is usually described by its total, and the total is the one thing that hides the gaps.

The shape of the directing career
The first credit on record is 2014 and the most recent is 2023, with work in 4 separate years. No single year carries more than one credit, so the work is spread rather than clustered.
The longest gap runs 4 years, between 2019 and 2023. A gap that size in a directing filmography is worth noticing rather than smoothing over: it is where the record stops describing a run of work and starts describing whatever happened instead, a project that collapsed, a move into other media, or simply nothing being offered. For a director it is almost always development that did not survive, since a film that gets made leaves a credit and a film that dies does not.
Reading the list
6 credits across 4 working years averages out at roughly 1.5 per year in the years with any work at all, a figure worth treating carefully, because release dates bunch and a filmography is a record of when films came OUT rather than when they were made. The highest recorded gross here is John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum at $327m, which on a list this size tells you where the resources went rather than which film is best.
What this page is built from
Structured film records, pulled by the same process that produces the cast pages here, not written from memory, which for credit data is how errors get in. A directing credit in that source can cover a feature, a short or one segment of an anthology, so the count is a count of credits rather than of features carried alone.
Questions about Chad Stahelski
How many films has Chad Stahelski directed?
6 on record, from 2014 to 2023. The list below is what the record credits as director, which can include shorts and segments as well as features.
Are the box-office figures comparable?
Only loosely. 4 of the 6 titles carry a recorded worldwide gross, they are in US dollars, and they are nominal, not adjusted for inflation, so an older release is being compared in older money.
Where do these details come from?
Structured film records pulled from Wikidata by the same process that builds the cast pages here, cross-checked against each film's own listed cast rather than written from memory. Where the record is thin — a missing character name, an unconfirmed billing order — the page says so, which is more useful than a confident sentence with nothing behind it.
