Information has been sparse concerning the John Wick movies but news came a while ago about a new film that will expand the John Wick universe. That movie is “Ballerina”, or more properly, “From the World of John Wick: Ballerina”. It’s a film that was immediately met with a lot of hesitation. But the long-awaited first trailer alleviates many of the concerns. It very much looks like a John Wick movie. And seeing the beloved faces of Ian McShane, Lance Reddick (in his final screen role), Anjelica Huston, and Keanu Reeves himself only strengthens that sentiment.
Franchise director Chad Stahelski hands the reins to Len Wiseman (the Underworld films). The story is set between John Wick Chapter 3 and Chapter 4 with Ana de Armas playing Eve Macarro, a ballerina turned assassin who sets out to pay back the people who killed her father. Her thirst for vengeance leads her down an action-fueled path that looks to follow the John Wick formula. And that’s a good thing!
“From the World of John Wick: Ballerina” is currently set to release June 6, 2025. Check out the trailer below and let me know if you’ll be seeing it or taking a pass.

HECK YES. I wonder why the franchise director handed over the reigns when so many of the franchise faces remain? Ana de Armas is a big draw for me. She’s shrewd in which films she chooses to be in. It’s always good to see females who can protect themselves and aren’t afraid to do it.
I’m not sure. I do feel he will be back if John Wick 5 happens. As for this one…sign me up!
Sign me up. And then I’d like to duplicate myself so I can sign myself up again. I’m honestly not sure this needs to be done, but holy shit this franchise has been fun.
I saw this trailer yesterday and…. sign me the fuck up. I want to see this. Ana de Armas really needs a comeback as she’s been in some flops (though not her fault) while also got an unfair rap for Blonde (which I liked a lot).
It looks so freaking good. I just hate that we have to wait sooo long!
I’m in!
I will probably see this because it’s from the makers of John Wick which have excellent choreography. but am not the biggest fan of gory stuff. I recently saw KATE and thought it was already a good film without the gory bits
I just want this movie to feel at home in the John Wick world. As long as it does that I think it’s going to be pretty good.
