Will John Wick appear in The Continental TV series?

It is very unlikely that John Wick will appear in The Continental, as the TV series is set in the 1970s as a prequel to the films. Younger versions of characters that later interact with John Wick are set to appear (such as Winston and Charon), but as of now it is unknown if the series will advance in time enough to introduce or reference a young John Wick.
