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.

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...

Ready to dance with “Ballerina?”
The “John Wick” spin-off, set concurrently with the third movie, stars Ana de Armas as a woman looking for revenge and gets involved in the ballet school/assassin training facility run by Anjelica Huston.
(This was a minor plot point in “John Wick: Chapter 3 — Parabellum,” with de Armas’ character actually being introduced in that film, played by a different actress. You are excused if you forgot.)
The cast also features Gabriel Byrne, Norman Reedus and Catalina Sandino Moreno, alongside “Wick”-verse regulars Ian McShane, Keanu Reeves and a posthumous appearance by the great Lance Reddick. Watch the trailer below:
The trailer promises loads of the series’ signature action set pieces, this time directed by Len Wiseman, with series director Chad Stahelski serving as a producer alongside fellow “John Wick” ambassadors Erica Lee and Basil Iwanyk.

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,...

The 58-year-old actress starred opposite Keanu Reeves, 60, in 2019's 'John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum' as former assassin Sofia Al-Azwar, and has now revealed she has spoken to Lionsgate Films about continuing her character's story in a future blockbuster.When The Hollywood Reporter asked Berry if she had hoped to have returned in 'John Wick: Chapter 4', she said: "Yeah, I wish that would’ve happened, but that’s not the route they went [in 'Chapter 4']. "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."While the actress insisted a possible Sofia Al-Azwar film was still in the pitching phase, the 'Catwoman' star emphasised...

To announce tomorrow's trailer launch, Lionsgate has shared the first teaser for Ballerina, their upcoming John Wick spinoff that will star Academy Award-nominee Ana de Armas in the leading role as a young assassin named Eve Macarro, who is training in the ways of the Ruska Roma, a group that was first introduced in John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum.
The film's official synopsis reveals the new film's place in the larger John Wick universe and how Keanu Reeves' Baba Yaga, who has been confirmed to appear, may factor into the film's proceedings.

The appeal of Chad Stahelski's 2014 actioner "John Wick" was how lean and simple it was. The titular character (Keanu Reeves) was quietly mourning the death of his wife, trying to recover with the puppy she had bought him. When rowdy Russian gangsters kill the dog during a home invasion, John reactivates, revealing that he was once known as the world's most dangerous assassin. He proceeds to take revenge on pretty much the entire criminal underground. The only fantastical wrinkle in "John Wick" was the Continental Hotel, a specialized high-end crash pad for all the world's well-moneyed assassins. The Continental could provide their clientele with medical attention, high-tech body armor, and however many guns they may need (usually a lot).
When a sequel was demanded, however, the filmmakers had to up the ante by heaping in more and more assassination lore, creating a bizarre, outsize world with complicated rules and an unfollowable mythos.

“Every man dies, not every man truly lives”, declared Braveheart’s William Wallace. But let’s be honest—how many of us can say we’ve truly lived unless we’ve had Mel Gibson by our side, lending a hand in the dead of night?
Gibson, a name that sends a tingle down the spine of movie buffs and historians of 80s and 90s cinema alike, isn’t just known for his legendary roles on-screen. He started with humble beginnings on the stage before gracing our TV screens in The Sullivans and Cop Shop.

And as luck would have it, even when he’s not wielding a sword or tearing through a post-apocalyptic landscape, he’s a road warrior in real life. In an old viral video, Gibson is seen lending a helping hand to a stranded citizen, showing that his off-screen heroism is just as compelling.

Midnight Sun, a Twilight novel by Stephanie Meyer, is heading to the small screen at Netflix – in animated series form.
There was a time in the early 2010s when Twilight was just about the biggest film franchise around.
It comprises five films – 2008’s Twilight, directed by Catherine Hardwicke, 2009’s New Moon, directed by Chris Weitz, 2010’s Eclipse, directed by David Slade, and the two part finale Breaking Dawn, directed by Bill Condon and released in 2011 and 2012. Their success was such that two parody films were also released in quick succession, the much maligned Vampire’s Suck and Breaking Wind.
The films followed Kristen Stewart’s Bella Swan as she becomes romantically involved with vampire Edward Cullen, played by Robert Pattinson, and werewolf Jacob Black, played by Taylor Lautner. Which all leads to a battle with vampire coven The Volturi.
Adapted by future Jessica Jones creator Melissa Rosenberg, the large ensemble cast also included Billy Burke,...

John Wick without its lead is like separating Tom from Jerry, Bonnie from Clyde, or the mac from cheese. At least, it seems that way at first glance.
The Continental was enormously successful for Peacock, a relative newcomer to the streaming platform fold. It quickly became Peacock’s biggest original launch and still sits in the top 5 of Peacock originals.
That may be where the secret lies, however. After all, The Continental is not John Wick. As it stands, disassociating the title from its predecessor seems like the way to go.

Or, maybe there’s more to it than that.
No one ever thought a Star Trek that didn’t involve the original cast could be successful. It doesn’t happen often, but it does happen.
The problem the entertainment industry has to overcome is association while restraining themselves from overdoing it.

In the cutthroat world of action films, where every franchise is fighting tooth and nail for its moment in the sun, the John Wick series has managed to carve out its own niche like a hot knife through butter. Since its debut in 2014, the franchise has morphed into a global blockbuster phenomenon, propelled by Keanu Reeves’ magnetic performance that fans have come to cherish. But as the saying goes, “Don’t rest on your laurels”, and the franchise certainly isn’t.

The John Wick franchise became a cultural phenomenon after the release of the first film in 2014. With its intricate characters, interconnected plotlines, and elaborate action sequences, the John Wick franchise has become one of the most popular action movie series of all time. The franchise has been getting bigger since the fourth movie, and while the main film series seems to be over, spin-off movies are planned, and we have just received information that a new series is in the works.
This announcement comes off a series of similar announcements, as we already know that a spin-off series and a spin-off movie are in the works, which means that Keanu Reeves and Chad Stahelski are going to expand the universe significantly.

Fan-favorite franchise director Chad Stahelski is taking John Wick’s gripping, no-holds-barred world to the small screen. Stahelski, who has helmed all four “John Wick” films to date, will executive produce and direct the pilot of “John Wick: Under the High Table,” Lionsgate Television’s new series exploring the assassin society’s complicated power structures.
Set in the aftermath of the cliffhanger conclusion to “John Wick: Chapter 4,” the anticipated series will delve into the turbulent transition period following John Wick’s demise. As ambitious killers seek to climb the ranks and shape the new order, loyalty to old guard players like Winston will be tested. Stahelski promises the show will seamlessly blend new and recognizable characters within the meticulously crafted universe fans have grown to love over four hit films.

De acuerdo con Deadline, Lionsgate se encuentra en pleno desarrollo de una serie secuela de John Wick 4, titulada John Wick: Under The High Table.
John Wick: The High Table promete «combinar lo nuevo y lo viejo e impulsar el universo Wick a una nueva era». La serie arrancará justo después del final de John Wick 4, en el que Wick deja el mundo de la Mesa Alta en una posición tenue y una colección de nuevos personajes tratará de hacerse un nombre por sí mismos, mientras que algunos de los personajes incondicionales de la franquicia siguen comprometidos con el orden del viejo mundo.
A diferencia de la serie The Continental, que fue la primera serie en expandir el universo de John Wick a modo de precuela, el equipo creativo de las películas estará involucrado, incluido su director Chad Stahelski,...

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.

John Wick is dead, long live John Wick! Whilst Keanu Reeves' mythic hitman may have seemingly met his maker on the steps of the Sacré-Cœur in John Wick: Chapter 4 (we never actually saw him croak it!), the John Wick Universe has continued to expand in his absence with the likes of hotelier origin series The Continental, Ana De Armas' upcoming quite literal bullet ballet Ballerina, and an in-development spin-off movie centred around Donnie Yen's blind assassin Caine. Now, per Deadline's reporting, The Old Man co-creator Robert Levine is penning John Wick: Under The High Table, a new TV series set directly after the end of the last Wick film.
Franchise star Reeves and Wickiverse head honcho Chad Stahelski are aboard to executive produce the series, with Stahelski — who helmed all four of the mainline Wick movies — set to direct the pilot episode. Little is known at this stage...

Lionsgate is looking to expand the universe of John Wick with a new action series titled John Wick: Under The High Table, according to Deadline. The upcoming series will be set after the events of John Wick: Chapter 4 and it will apparently explore the fallout of the actions taken by Wick and Marquis Vincent Bisset de Gramont in the fourth film.
John Wick: Under The High Table is supposed to be our look into the mysterious world of the High Table and while it seems like a risky project the mystery of the High Table is far more effective than a guy sitting alone in a tent in the desert. But the risk gets a little lower when Robert Levine, the guy behind Black Sails and The Old Man is writing it.

Warrior is a martial arts action crime drama series created by Jonathan Tropper. Based on the writings of the legendary Bruce Lee, the Max series is set during the Tong Wars in late 1870s San Francisco, and it follows the story of Ah Sahm (Andrew Koji), a Chinese immigrant who comes to America to find her sister. Warrior was canceled after its much-beloved third season, and while the creators and producers of the series are trying to find a new home for the series, their efforts haven’t panned out yet. So, if you are also disappointed because of the cancellation of Warrior, here are some similar shows you could watch next.

Talk about an itchy trigger finger. Lionsgate is teaming up with Chad Stahelski and his 87Eleven production banner to produce an English-language remake of the Hindi action movie “Kill,” which hasn’t even opened domestically yet. It hits theaters on July 4.
Nikhil Nagesh Bhat wrote and directed the upcoming “Kill,” and as we wrote just this month, it’s basically “Bullet Train” with more knives — and we’re all here for that. It’s one of the first times a mainstream Hindi-language film directly partnered with a Hollywood studio for its North-American theatrical release.
No director or cast has been set for the remake. The good news is Stahelski is clearly a fan of the original.
“’Kill’ is one of the most vivid, wild, and creative action movies I’ve seen recently,” he said in a statement. “Nikhil delivers relentless action sequences that need to be seen by as wide an audience as possible.

Breaking out in the late ’90s and early 2000s as one of the biggest comedians in the world, Cook remains among the top-selling, as highlighted by his sold-out performance at Netflix Is a Joke and his upcoming nationwide Live Nation tour, “Fresh New Flavor.

The John Wick Universe grows ever wider. Following the release of explosive quadrilogy closer John Wick: Chapter 4, last September fans were invited to check in to The Continental on Prime Video. And, in just a few short weeks, we’ll be seeing Ana de Armas bring a whole new meaning to bullet ballet in spin-off movie Ballerina. But Lionsgate aren’t done there. Per The Hollywood Reporter, Donnie Yen is set to reprise his role as blind assassin Caine in an upcoming standalone spin-off all of his own.
When last we saw Caine, the assassin — fresh from his (seemingly fatal) duel with Keanu Reeves' Wick — was being approached by a blade-wielding Akira (Rina Sawayama) on the streets of Paris. Presumably he makes it out alive though, as the studio has revealed this film “will continue Yen’s story arc following the events of John Wick: Chapter 4, as Caine has...

The John Wick universe continues to grow, with Donnie Yen to get his own spin-off. The film will continue the adventures of his character, Caine.
Keanu Reeves and Chad Stahelski, star and director of the popular John Wick series, may be taking a well-earned break from the franchise, but that isn’t stopping Lionsgate from finding ways to keep the good ship Wick on its journey to box office dollars.
There’s the TV prequel spin-off, The Continental, which has already released, not to mention Ballerina, the recently-delayed spin-off movie that will feature Ana de Armas as an assassin who looks to have graduated from the same killing school that taught John Wick himself.
Gird yourself for more stories from the John Wick universe, though, as it’s been announced by Lionsgate (thanks Dark Horizons) that Donnie Yen’s Caine character will also be getting a spin-off film. It will...

Donnie Yen isn’t done with his role as the blind assassin Caine from John Wick: Chapter 4 quite yet.
Per The Hollywood Reporter, the veteran Hong Kong action star will return in a spinoff picking up with his character being freed of his obligations to the High Table after the final events of John Wick 4.
“Working on John Wick: Chapter 4 was an extraordinary experience. The reason these films resonate so deeply is because, like myself, Chad, Basil, and Erica push themselves to create action, fights, and stunts that are not only thrilling, inventive, and artistic, but also expressive of character, story, and emotion,” Yen said in a statement. “Caine is an incredible character with a haunted past, and I am excited to return to the role.”
