An upcoming spin-off of the popular movie franchise John Wick will feature a ballerina-turned-assassin as the main character. The theatrical release date for Ballerina has been set for June 7th, 2024.
Ana de Armas, known for her role in No Time to Die, will play the lead role in Ballerina. The movie will also feature appearances by Keanu Reeves, Ian McShane, and Anjelica Huston.
Ian McShane is set to reprise his role as Winston, the owner of The Continental, in the upcoming John Wick spinoff Ballerina. However, the major announcement is that Keanu Reeves will also make an appearance as the iconic character John Wick, alongside Ana de Armas.
The movie’s co-writer Shay Hatten told Collider that Reeves’ role will be more than a cameo. “We got him to be in it for a good chunk,” he said.
“He’s a real character, and it’s not just kind of a one-piece cameo. He’s got… well, I shouldn’t say too much, but he’s in the movie in a way that I think people are going to be really excited by.”
Anjelica Huston will also make an appearance in the movie as The Director, a character who previously appeared in John Wick: Chapter 3 as the manager of the ballet where John was trained. It’s likely that De Armas’s character will also be trained there.
Deadline reported on December 13, 2022, that Norman Reedus, best known for his role in The Walking Dead, has joined the cast of Ballerina in an undisclosed role.
“En Puntas” by artist Javier Perez – ballerina Amélie Sgarra
When I learned about the John Wick spinoff featuring a ballerina-turned-assassin, my mind immediately went to the mesmerizing video installation “En Puntas” by artist Javier Perez.
In the video, ballerina Amélie Sgarra performs an incredible dance while standing en pointe on a grand piano, wearing a pair of pointe shoes customized with sharp kitchen knives that extend beyond the toe box.
Can’t you just imagine some epic fight scenes with a pair of ballerina slippers like that!
Len Wiseman, known for directing films such as Underworld and the TV series Swamp Thing, will be directing the first spinoff movie of the John Wick franchise. The script for the new movie was written by Shay Hatten, who also wrote for John Wick: Chapter 3.
While the spinoff is in the works, John Wick: Chapter 4 is still bringing in some big bucks, with a global box office revenue of $245 million and positive critical reviews.
