Stahelski was a friend of Brandon Lee, at Inosanto Academy, who died from a gunshot wound on March 31, 1993, after an accidental shooting on set of The Crow. After the death, Lee's fiancée, Eliza Hutton, and his mother supported Director Alex Proyas' decision to complete the film. At the time of Lee's death, only eight days were left before completion of the movie. A majority of the film had already been completed with Lee and only a few scenes remained to be done. To complete the film, the story was rewritten and Stahelski served as a double, while special effects were used to give him Lee's face. Another stunt double, Jeff Cadiente, was also used to complete Lee's part for the movie.
The Crow was released in May 1994 and became a box office hit, grossing over $50 million in the U.S., and retaining a loyal cult following many years after its release.
In 2014, Stahelski co-directed the action thriller film John Wick along with David Leitch, based on the screenplay by Derek Kolstad. The film starred Keanu Reeves and Michael Nyqvist, and was released on October 24, 2014 by Summit Entertainment, grossing over $88 million.
In November 2016 it was revealed that he had begun work on Triple Threat with a script written by Dwayne Smith and set to star Tony Jaa, Tiger Chen and Iko Uwais. Later that November, he was signed on to the reboot of the Highlander franchise, which he committed to making a trilogy of, ending with "The Gathering" of the immortals. It would be similar in thematic development with the original Star Wars trilogy, and similar to John Wick action, but with swords replacing gun-play. The reboot trilogy would still include the iconic music by Queen.
In December 2017 it was announced that Stahelski would be directing a film adaptation of the comic book Kill or Be Killed.
In January 2018 it was announced that Stahelski will return as sole Director for the film's 2019 sequel, John Wick: Chapter 3.
