The delayed John Wick spin-off film Ballerina finally gets a trailer, along with a rather unwieldy new title.
The saga of what is now called From The World Of John Wick: Ballerina has been a rather tricky one thus far – almost as tricky as that new title, which doesn’t exactly roll off the tongue, does it? While we understand that Lionsgate is keen to make audiences aware that the new Ana De Armas action film is connected to its series of popular John Wick action films, is that the best its marketing department could come up with?
Lionsgate’s marketing folks have already found themselves in trouble recently for relying a bit too much on AI tools and we can’t help but wonder if a machine spewed out that clumsy title too.
Anyway, silly titling aside, we’re finally getting a fresh trailer for the delayed project which...

The John Wick film series is expanding with the upcoming spin-off movie “Ballerina.” Scheduled for release on June 6, 2025, the action thriller will star Ana de Armas as the new lead character Eve Macarro. Eve was formerly a ballet dancer who became an assassin seeking revenge for the murder of her family. The movie is set between the events of “John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum” and the upcoming “John Wick: Chapter 4.”
The newly released trailer introduces viewers to Eve’s backstory and shows her engaging in several intense fight scenes using ballet-inspired techniques. In one scene, Eve slices an opponent’s neck with an ice skate during a fight. Another trailer moment depicts Eve battling a flamethrower-wielding enemy with a high-powered water hose.
Fans will also get to see the return of John Wick, played by Keanu Reeves. According to screenwriter Shay Hatten, Reeves will have a substantial role and not just a cameo appearance.

The official trailer for Ballerina declares that vengeance has a new face…and that face belongs to Ana de Armas. But that doesn’t mean that this John Wick spinoff doesn’t also have an old face in it, as the trailer includes a snippet of the Baba Yaga himself, Keanu Reeves.
In addition to Ana de Armas and Keanu Reeves, the cast of the new addition to the John Wick franchise includes Anjelica Huston, Gabriel Byrne, Lance Reddick, Catalina Sandino Moreno, Norman Reedus, and Ian McShane. Len Wiseman directs from a screenplay by Shay Hatten (John Wick 3 & 4).
John Wick director Chad Stahelski serves as a producer along with Basil Iwanyk and Erica Lee.

John Wick is all set to return to the screens with its upcoming neo-noir action thriller spin-off film, From the World of John Wick: Ballerina, and the buzz around it couldn’t be louder. Not only is it bringing back Keanu Reeves’ iconic Wick with Ana de Armas’ Rooney chasing him, but it has also brought about a glimpse of a new entry into the cast: Norman Reedus.

This pleasant surprise was delivered in an exclusively released trailer, and the impeccably designed trailer is more than enough to have fans desperately anticipating the film’s release. And yet, while Reedus’ surprising appearance was one of the things that left viewers’ jaws dropped, it wasn’t the only feature that came as a satisfying update to fans, as Lance Reddick stole the show.

After sharing a tease yesterday, Lionsgate has shared the first official trailer for their upcoming John Wick spinoff Ballerina, which stars Academy Award-nominee Ana de Armas in the lead role as a young assassin named Eve Macarro, who, after a tragedy, begins training in the ways of the Ruska Roma and plots her vengeance against those that wronged her family.
The film's official synopsis reads, "Taking place during the events of John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum, the film follows Eve Macarro (Ana de Armas) who is beginning her training in the assassin traditions of the Ruska Roma."
While the trailer does give us plenty of footage of the fan-favorite Cuban actress kicking all kinds of ass across the world, it wraps up with the most epic of cameos as the one-and-only Keanu Reeves reprises his iconic role as John Wick, a.k.a. Baba Yaga, and it looks like he'll...

The trailer for "Ballerina" is finally here! Oh, sorry, my mistake. The movie isn't actually called "Ballerina." It's called "From the World of John Wick: Ballerina," and before we go any further, let me just say that title stinks. Yeesh! Okay, now that that's out of the way, we're going to be calling the movie just "Ballerina." The new film is set in the John Wick universe, and introduces Ana de Armas as yet another highly-skilled assassin in a world full of highly-skilled assassins. But that's not all — Keanu Reeves' John Wick pops up in the trailer, too! Now, Reeves' presence might lead to some confusion, since the end of the incredible "John Wick: Chapter 4" really made it seem like our boy John was dead.
So how is John Wick back in this trailer? Has he been raised from the dead? Nope! As you might've guessed for yourself by now,...

Ana de Armas is en pointe in the first trailer for Ballerina, the spinoff of the Keanu Reeves’ John Wick franchise.
De Armas stars as a ballerina turned assassin in the film, which officially is called From the World of John Wick: Ballerina. The feature has had a long road to the screen already. It initially shot in 2022, and was slated to open in June 2024. But in February, Lionsgate delayed the feature by a year to June 6, 2025, in order to allow John Wick director Chad Stahelski to assist with upping the action. He worked with Ballerina helmer Len Wiseman on new action sequences that shot this year.

The long wait to find out what director Len Wiseman and Ana de Armas are cooking up with the John Wick spinoff Ballerina is finally ending. Lionsgate pulled the curtain back on a Ballerina teaser on Wednesday, paving the way for today’s release of a full trailer. Yesterday’s Ballerina teaser included a chilling rendition of Beethoven’s “Furelise” playing from a wind-up music box. As the camera slowly pans through a study crowded with books and fancy decor, a porcelain dancer spins beneath a glass dome with the words “Trailer Tomorrow” inscribed at the bottom of the keepsake. With today’s trailer, we finally get to see Ana de Armas in action as the title character – and yes, Keanu Reeves shows up for a John Wick cameo. The film has a release date of June 6, 2025.

The trailer for the long-awaited "John Wick" spin-off film "Ballerina" is finally here. Following a teaser clip that used a music box version of Beethoven's "Für Elise," the full trailer has provided a glimpse at what looks like a promising return to the Wick-verse.
"Live Free or Die Hard" director Len Wiseman is helming this latest off-shoot, which, frankly, has a lot riding on its shoulders. For a time, it seemed as though Hollywood could learn a few lessons about how to build a cinematic universe from the "John Wick" saga. But after the lifeless, pointless spin-off seres "The Continental," it started to look as though the impressive world-building of the movies could only really work in service of Keanu Reeves' relentless hit-man. What's more, the studio behind the films, Lionsgate, is coming off a string of box office duds that have put the company in serious jeopardy.

We’ve been waiting for Ana de Armas to get a proper action movie ever since she was one of the standout Bond women in “No Time to Die.” Now she’s joining another iconic action franchise: the “John Wick” universe.
“Ballerina,” a spinoff movie within the “John Wick” franchise, has finally landed a trailer from Lionsgate. The long-awaited project originated as an original story by screenwriter Shay Hatten back in 2017; the script was re-written to bring it into the “Wick” universe of assassins. The titular ballerina killer was briefly introduced in “John Wick 3: Parabellum.”
Unlike Peacock’s “Wick” prequel series “The Continental,” “Ballerina” is set in between the events of the third and fourth “John Wick” movies and even features brief appearances from both Keanu Reeves and the late Lance Reddick. As Lionsgate film group president Adam Fogelson previously confirmed, the film avoids the fate of John Wick...

Ana de Armas is out for revenge in the first trailer for “Ballerina,” the “John Wick” spinoff set to release on June 6, 2025.
In the action thriller, de Armas plays Eve Macarro, a Ruska Roman ballerina seeking retribution against a group of hitmen who murdered her family. “Ballerina” takes place in between the events of “John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum” and “John Wick: Chapter 4,” spotlighting the female assassin who made only a brief appearance in the third “Wick” movie and was originally played by Unity Phelan.
The trailer shows the origins of de Armas’ Eve, who’s on her own quest for vengeance. She kicks plenty of ass, slices someone’s neck with an ice skate and douses a flamethrower with a high-powered hose. At the end of the trailer, she even meets Baba Yaga himself, John Wick.
“Ballerina” will also feature franchise leader Keanu Reeves as Wick. As writer Shay Hatten told Collider,...

Could Halle Berry take center stage in a John Wick spinoff? Berry played Sofia Al-Azwar in John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum. Sofia is the manager of the Casablanca Continental who assists Wick when he’s labeled excommunicado. Although Sofia said that doing so could put her daughter in danger, we never find out what happened. While speaking with THR, Berry said she thought John Wick: Chapter 4 would pick up that thread, but it didn’t. The actress added that there have been talks of a Sofia spinoff, but if it’s going to happen, it should be sooner rather than later.
“Yeah, I wish that would’ve happened, but that’s not the route they went. I thought that would’ve been a cool storyline. We talked about it, that’s for sure. We seeded it in John Wick: Chapter 3, and we’ve talked about a spinoff with Lionsgate that could potentially happen,...

There are three generally accepted rules for living a long and happy life. 1) You don’t spit into the wind. That’s really just common sense. 2) You don’t tug on Superman’s cape. 3) By God, if you really want to live a long life, you 100%, not under any circumstances, for any reason, F*ck with John Wick’s dog. We have all learned nothing good happens from making John Wick angry. While we’ve already had one spin-off of the successful franchise, the upcoming film Ballerina promises to take us even further into the crazy underworld of one of the most fascinating franchises to emerge in a long time.
Where Did Ballerina Come From?
This film began life way back in 2017 as a stand-alone film. Shay Hatten wrote an action script with a female lead called Ballerina. The lead would be a ballerina assassin who goes on a revenge killing spree.

The John Wick spin-off Ballerina will finally be unveiling footage to the world after extended reshoots, according to the film’s star, Ana De Armas. De Armas is currently promoting her upcoming Ron Howard film Eden at TIFF when she spoke with Collider. She teases the action film, which is set to feature cameos by Keanu Reeves and Lance Reddick.

All we did in those reshoots had to be there. We got amazing footage. It’s really spectacular. A trailer is coming out soon, I’ve been told. I saw it, and it’s beautiful. I’m very proud of it.

De Armas, who plays the assassin Rooney in the film, spoke recently at the Toronto International Film Festival where she promoted a separate project.
Though originally planned for summer 2024, “Ballerina” was pushed back to a June 2025 release to allow for reshoots. De Armas said these reshoots were crucial, explaining that while additional photography can be a cause for concern, the new footage for “Ballerina” is “really spectacular.” Producer Chad Stahelski, known for his impressive action scenes in the “John Wick” films, directed the reshoots.
Set between the third and fourth “John Wick” movies, “Ballerina” follows Rooney seeking vengeance. The film smoothly incorporates characters from the franchise, including Ian McShane returning as Winston and Lance Reddick as Charon. Most exciting for fans, said de Armas,...

John Stevenson and Mike Osborne's 2008 film "Kung Fu Panda," on its most basic level, serves as a spoof of a certain type of martial arts film made in Hong Kong in the 1970s. Many of the tropes of martial arts cinema infiltrated American cinemas in the 1990s and 2000s thanks to the stateside releases of Jackie Chan's Hong Kong movies, the success of the wuxia film "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon," and the constant bolstering of the genre by mega-fan Quentin Tarantino.
By 2008, so many American filmmakers had borrowed from Hong King cinema (including Tarantino himself with his "Kill Bill" movies), that even small children could recreate their tropes and clichés on the playground. Every kid could spot the characters: ancient wizened masters, a team of martial arts monks, and a feisty young comedic hotshot who seems ill-equipped for the asceticism of kung fu, but ultimately proves to be a champion.

The fifth movie in the John Wick action franchise will not begin production in 2025 as previously thought. Series director Chad Stahelski is focusing on the “Highlander” reboot starring Henry Cavill, which starts filming next year in Scotland.
Sources close to the “John Wick” films told reporters this week that rumors of an early 2025 production start for “John Wick: Chapter 5” were incorrect. Stahelski is dedicated to completing the “Highlander” project first before moving on to another John Wick film.
While some fans may be disappointed by the delay, the franchise is still moving forward in other ways. Lionsgate, the movie studio behind John Wick, still wants to make more films according to people familiar with the situation. The fourth movie, released in 2023, ended with John Wick wounded but his ultimate fate was unclear.

Henry Selick’s adapted from Neil Gaiman’s book about a young girl who finds new parents with buttons for eyes is a nifty stop-motion animation
Henry Selick’s 2009 animated supernatural fantasy Coraline is now rereleased for its 15th anniversary; it is based on a novella by Neil Gaiman, the author now the subject of sexual assault allegations. This stop-motion film looks as amiably creepy as it did when I saw it first – though, as with The Nightmare Before Christmas, another of Selick’s movies, which was produced by Tim Burton, the chills are mixed with adventure, exotic strangeness and comedy, certainly a recipe that has entranced audiences. As before, though, I wondered if this story might have been more frightening if it had been filmed in conventional live-action with regular human beings showing us their eerie smiling faces with buttons for eyes. But straight-up scariness may not be the point.

The deep lore of the John Wick movies will continue on TV with the sequel series Under The High Table, now being developed by Keanu Reeves and Chad Stahelski.
A decade after Keanu Reeves’ assassin first started shooting men in the face at point-blank range because of what happened to his dog, the John Wick movies have grown into a mini empire. Last year’s John Wick: Chapter 4 brought the series’ stylised violence to new aesthetic heights, and it’s now been announced that a series is in development that will continue on from where that movie left off.
Called John Wick: Under The High Table, the series is currently in development at Lionsgate, with Reeves its executive producer alongside regular director Chad Stahelski.
According to Deadline, which broke the story, Stahelski will direct the pilot episode, while Robert Levine – who co-created the thriller series The Old Man starring Jeff Bridges...

Keanu Reeves has had an interesting career since the 90s and has been labeled one of the bonafide action heroes in Hollywood. Instead of the macho, indestructible type of heroes presented by Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sylvester Stallone, Reeves’s heroes are vulnerable yet are determined to overcome all obstacles.

These traits are seen in films such as Point Break, Speed, Matrix, and the John Wick films. Outside of his action films, Reeves is not considered a strong dramatic performer and many have criticized his acting abilities in films such as Much Ado About Nothing, and Bram Stoker’s Dracula. Another failed attempt at an intriguing thriller was 2015’s Knock Knock where his unconvincing performance was exposed.

"Hot Rod" is one of those movies that really has come into its own since its original release. The movie served as the cinematic coming out party for The Lonely Island, aka Andy Samberg, Jorma Taccone, and Akiva Schaffer. Unfortunately, it was something of a flop when Paramount Pictures released it in the summer of 2007. But audiences have since allowed it to achieve cult status, embracing its many outlandish jokes, elaborate comedic set pieces, and hidden gags. The story of one of those hidden gags is, as it turns out, infinitely better than the gag itself.
On a recent two-part episode of "The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast," the gang broke down "Hot Rod" in great detail. It's the perfect example of why "SNL" fans should be listening to this podcast. On the episode, the gang explained how on Earth a poster for an obscure, real comedy called "The Whoopee Boys...
