Hoy se ha publicado un nuevo tráiler de la película Ballerina, el esperado spin off de John Wick dirigido por Len Wiseman (Underworld) y escrito por Shay Hatten, quien firmó el guion del capítulo 4 de la saga junto con Michael Finch.

Ballerina es una violenta historia de venganza (como ya lo era John Wick) que sigue a Eve Macarro (Ana de Armas), una asesina entrenada por la Ruska Roma desde su infancia, la misma organización criminal encargada del adiestramiento de John Wick (Keanu Reeves). Eve intentará por todos los medios averiguar quién está detrás del asesinato de su padre y en su lucha por conocer la verdad, tendrá que atenerse a las normas de la Alta Mesa, enfrentarse al mismísimo Baba Yaga y, por supuesto, a las reglas del Hotel Continental, donde descubrirá que hay secretos ocultos sobre su pasado.

"Rules and consequences."

Lionsgate has finally launched the brand new trailer for their upcoming action-thriller Ballerina, offering a killer new look at Academy Award-nominee Ana de Armas (Knives Out; No Time to Die; Ghosted) heading into action as Eve Macarro, and it looks like her mission just got considerably more difficult than we imagined as she'll soon find herself up against Baba Yaga himself!

Yes, as the trailer reveals, The Director (Anjelica Huston) will send John Wick (Keanu Reeves) after Eve, in a last-ditch effort to stop her vendetta. John will offer her a choice, leave or die, and the battle commences. It certainly adds an interesting wrinkle to the film, as we were all previously under the assumption that Wick and Macarro would be allies and fight together, which could obviously still happen, but it looks like things will head into a different direction before the credits roll.

The film's official synopsis reads,...

Lionsgate UK has debuted a new trailer for the ‘John Wick’ spin-off feature ‘Ballerina.’

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.

The movie debuts across the UK on 6 June 2025.

The post...

In the Ballerina trailer, a flame-torching, axe-throwing Ana de Armas embraces the death-defying stunts and stealthy choreography that made the John Wick movies a standalone, action-packed franchise.

The Len Wiseman-directed Ballerina follows Armas, a ballerina and assassin who is learning from the teachings of the Ruska Roma. Armas, who plays Eve Macarro, is seeking revenge from the men who killed her family and along the way faces John Wick‘s Keanu Reeves, featured toward the trailer’s end. The film, written by Shay Hatten, takes place during the events...

A brand new trailer for the upcoming movie Ballerina, from the world of John Wick, has been released and it features the film’s fire and ice action sequence.

The trailer was launched during an interactive live stream event in which a stunt professional melted a large ice block with a flamethrower to unveil the trailer, as iconically used in the film.

Ana de Armas stars in the new film, which also features an appearance from Keanu Reeves as the beloved character John Wick.

Taking place during the events of John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum, the film follows Eve Macarro (de Armas) who is beginning her training in the assassin traditions of the Ruska Roma.

Also starring in the film are Anjelica Huston, Gabriel Byrne, the late Lance Reddick, Catalina Sandino Moreno, Norman Reedus, and Ian McShane.

Ballerina hits theaters on June 6. Watch the new trailer below!

“Ballerina” is nearly ready to take the stage.

The film from director Len Wiseman is the first feature-length spinoff “from the world of John Wick.” It stars Ana de Armas as a lethal assassin who is in over her head. Watch the new trailer, complete with a promised Keanu Reeves cameo and a trailer-worthy remix of Charli Xcx’s “Von Dutch,” below.

If you’ll recall, the idea of the ballerina program was introduced in “John Wick: Chapter 3,” with Anjelica Huston running an organization of female killers (Huston returns for “Ballerina”). In fact, “Ballerina” takes place during the events of “John Wick: Chapter 3,” which is why Wick can return after dying at the end of 2023’s “John Wick: Chapter 4.” Also returning from the mainline series are Ian McShane and Lance Reddick, who passed away in 2023 at the age of 60. This will be his final posthumous on-screen appearance.

“Ballerina” is the new live-action ‘neo-noir’ crime thriller, directed by Len Wiseman as a spin-off and fifth film in Chad Stahelski’s “John Wick” franchise, starring Ana de Armas, Anjelica Huston, Keanu Reeves, Gabriel Byrne, Lance Reddick, Catalina Sandino Moreno, Norman Reedus, and Ian McShane, releasing June 6, 2025 in theaters:

The ‘John Wick’ universe is growing, and it’s bringing some serious action with it. A fresh trailer just dropped for ‘Ballerina’, a spinoff I can’t wait to see. This time, Ana de Armas steps into the spotlight, facing off against the legendary John Wick himself, played by Keanu Reeves. It’s a brutal, gory showdown that promises to keep us on the edge of our seats.

Ana de Armas stars as Eve Macarro, a ballerina with a deadly twist. She’s not just dancing her way across the stage—she’s training to become an assassin with the Ruska Roma, a group we first glimpsed in ‘John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum’. The story picks up between the events of that film and ‘John Wick: Chapter 4’, giving us a new angle on this world of killers. Eve’s out for revenge after her family’s murder, and she’s not holding back.

Audiences will return to the world of John Wick in this year’s spin-off, Ballerina. And an explosive new trailer for the highly anticipated action thriller has now been unleashed. From the World of John Wick: Ballerina is scheduled to be released in theaters on June 6, 2025, and will introduce No Time to Die and Knives Out star Ana De Armas as a new assassin who embarks on her own quest for revenge.

Directed by Len Wiseman, who is best known for action fare like the Underworld franchise, Total Recall, and Die Hard 4, and from a screenplay he co-wrote with Shay Hatten in collaboration with Emerald Fennell, Ballerina takes place between the events of John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum and John Wick: Chapter 4 and follows ballerina-assassin Eve (Ana de Armas) as she hunts the people who killed her family.

Academy Award nominee Ana de Armas will lead the project, with John Wick himself,...

Len Wiseman (Underworld, “Swamp Thing”) directed the upcoming Ballerina, with Shay Hatten (John Wick: Chapter 3) tasked with writing the new spinoff movie’s screenplay.

The growing John Wick Cinematic Universe also includes The Continental: From the World of John Wick, a spinoff television series that premiered on Peacock back in late 2023.

Remember when, in John Wick: Chapter 3 — Parabellum, John Wick (Keanu Reeves) dropped by a ballerina/assassin school run by Anjelica Huston? Sure you do. And we’re going deeper into that pocket of the John Wick universe with this new trailer for From the World of John Wick: Ballerina, starring Ana de Armas as a young ballerina/assassin in training to join the Ruska Roma organization. The film arrives in theaters on June 6th, 2025. Check out the new trailer below

Ballerina was originally set to premiere in 2024 before being moved forward to this year.

Plus, of course, Reeves returns as the Baba Yaga himself — Ballerina takes place during the events of Chapter 3, meaning that John...

"She sent you here to kill me?" "Or you can leave..." Lionsgate has launched the third official trailer for the Ballerina action movie, the next John Wick movie (sort of) arriving in theaters worldwide in the summer. Set for release at the start of June. We've featured two trailers for this before, this one has the most action yet - including more of that flamethrower that everyone enjoys. Ana de Armas stars as Eve, an assassin trained in the traditions of the Ruska Roma getting revenge hunting the murderers of her family. The same character was played by Unity Phelan in 2019's John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum and this takes place before Chapter 4. The main supporting cast includes Ian McShane, Anjelica Huston, Keanu Reeves, Gabriel Byrne, Catalina Sandino Moreno, and Norman Reedus. With an appearance by Lance Reddick shot before he passed away. The more the show from this, the...

After years of delays, fans will finally get to see Ana de Armas attempt to put her stamp on the “John Wick” universe this June when “Ballerina” hits theaters.

First announced in 2019, the new “John Wick” spin-off stars de Armas as a ballerina and assassin who seeks revenge on the people who killed her family. Set between the events of the third and fourth “John Wick” films, the new movie features franchise regulars including Ian McShane, Angelica Huston, and Keanu Reeves himself. It also features an appearance from the late Lance Reddick, who shot the film before his passing in 2023. Norman Reedus, Sharon Duncan-Brewster, and Gabriel Byrne also star in the film.

“Ballerina” is written by Shay Hatten, and was originally an unrelated spec screenplay that Lionsgate acquired and reworked to fit it into the “John Wick” universe. After joining the Lionsgate fold, Hatten went on to co-write “John Wick:...

Back in 2017, Lionsgate bought an action thriller spec script called Ballerina, which was written by Shay Hatten and ranked on The Black List as one of the best unproduced screenplays of that year. The idea was to have Hatten rewrite the script to take place within the world of Lionsgate’s John Wick franchise – and Hatten was also hired to co-write John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum, which included a set-up for the Ballerina concept of ballerina assassins. Hatten did his rewrite, Len Wiseman was hired to direct the film, Ana de Armas was cast as the title character, and now, Ballerina is ready to make its way out into the world, with a theatrical release scheduled for June 6th. With that date not far off, a new trailer for the film has arrived online and can be seen in the embed above.

The film follows Eve Macarro (de Armas), who is...

Keanu Reeves' John Wick might not be among the living after "John Wick: Chapter 4," but there's no keeping a good assassin universe down. The Ana de Armas-starring "John Wick" spin-off "Ballerina" (full, awkward title: "From the World of John Wick: Ballerina") will be here on June 6, 2025, and fans of the main movie series' inventive fight scenes and visual language can expect one serious action feast. They can also expect to see many of the familiar power players in the franchise. Folks like the Director (Anjelica Huston), Winston (Ian McShane), and Charon will all feature in the movie -- and since "Ballerina" takes place before the events of "John Wick: Chapter 4," Reeves' master assassin is set to drop by, as well.

The first "Ballerina" trailer introduced us to all of this, along with de Armas' protagonist Eve Macarro and a cavalcade of new supporting characters like Norman Reedus' Daniel Pine...

A new trailer has been released for Ballerina. Taking place during the events of John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum,Ballerina is an upcoming John Wick spinoff focusing on the story of a female assassin named Eve (Ana de Armas) who seeks vengeance after her father's death. Eve has a training background from the Ruska Roma, and hones her skills with the help of Keanu Reeves' John Wick. Ballerina features a leading cast including Angelica Huston, Norman Reedus, Ian McShane, Lance Reddick, and Gabriel Byrne. Unlike the John Wick tetralogy, the film is directed by Len Wiseman.

Now, Lionsgate has released a new trailer for Ballerina. The trailer begins by explaining a piece of Slavic mythology, relating to the protagonist's role in protecting the innocent and taking down those with "darkness in their hearts." This lore is explained in voiceover, while images of Eve fighting are shown. Eve checks into the notorious Continental Hotel,...

Since Ballerina is set inbetween the events of John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum and John Wick: Chapter 4, it will also feature franchise mainstays Keanu Reeves as John Wick, Ian McShane as Winston Scott, and the late Lance Reddick, in his final on-screen appearance, as Charon.

Although the spinoff will obviously be focused on Ana de Armas’ character, it will feature appearances from several characters from across the John Wick franchise, including Ian McShane as Winston, the owner of the Continental Hotel, the late Lance Reddick as Charon, the Continental’s concierge, and Anjelica Huston as the Director,...

The upcoming John Wick prequel film, Ballerina, sees Norman Reedus transition from The Walking Dead to running with assassins. New images from the neo-noir thriller teases Reedus' mysterious character in the hard-hitting spinoff.

Via Lionsgate, visuals previewing Ballerina showcase Reedus' character, Daniel Pine, holding a gun and looking ready for battle in a scene from the action thriller. Other images tease Ana de Armas' eponymous protagonist, Eve Macarro/Rooney, including one scene with Eve and New York Continental Hotel owner Winston Scott (Ian McShane) in tense conversation.

Details surrounding Reedus' character are being withheld, other than the fact he's mysterious. Reedus expressed his admiration for the John Wick franchise after boarding Ballerina in 2022, crediting Keanu Reeves for holding his own while playing Wick amid its many physical demands. Reedus admitted Ballerina's production had its "painful" moments given the toll the film took on his body. However, Reedus credited the John Wick...

Ana de Armas is set to join the John Wick Universe with Ballerina. With Keanu Reeves set to make an appearance as John Wick in the forthcoming spinoff, de Armas recently opened up about what it was like to work with the actor again.

"I have had the pleasure of working with Keanu three times already, and Ballerina was particularly special because it was me stepping into his world. The world of John Wick, which is so loved by the fans," de Armas told IGN in an email interview. "I respect and appreciate Keanu as an artist, as a person and as a friend, he’s a leader and force on set, and always a gentleman." Reeves and de Armas first worked together in the 2015 thriller film, Knock Knock.

"Wicked," released with enough green and pink merchandising to choke a horse, has been one of the rare musical extravaganzas to cross over from an audience of theater enthusiasts into the mainstream. Based on the popular Broadway musical starring Idina Menzel and Kristin Chenoweth (which in turn was based on a Gregory Maguire novel of the same name), "Wicked" tells the origin story of the Wicked Witch of the West from "The Wizard of Oz." Elphaba ends up becoming roommates with Glinda (Ariana Grande as the future good witch) while they're both studying magic at university. An unlikely friendship blossoms between the two total opposites -- until it's suddenly tested by the lure of the Wizard and his Emerald City.

Season 1 Episode 3 Episode Summary

The upcoming episode of “Towards Zero” on BBC One promises to be a gripping installment filled with tension and intrigue. In this episode, Detective Leach finds himself facing a new challenge as a killer strikes again. The stakes are high, and the pressure is on for him to solve the case before more lives are lost.

As the investigation unfolds, Detective Leach is pulled into a complex web of deceit and dysfunction. The environment around him becomes increasingly toxic, making it harder to discern who can be trusted. With each twist and turn, he must navigate through lies and hidden motives to uncover the truth behind the murders.

In this high-stakes scenario, Detective Leach will need to rely on his instincts as a copper. The episode will explore his character deeply, showcasing his determination and resilience in the face of adversity.

Though doubts linger regarding Keanu Reeves' return as the eponymous assassin, John Wick 5 has received a promising progress update. A Lionsgate executive not only insisted that the neo-noir sequel is happening, but also hinted that Reeves' character may return.

Speaking with ComicBook, Jenefer Brown, EVP and Head of Global Products and Experiences at Lionsgate, talked about John Wick 5 and upcoming franchise spinoffs. According to Brown, things are heading in the right direction with the next sequel, teasing that she and everyone else are waiting to see if the hitman portrayed by Reeves is truly dead. "We've shared that we're developing a fifth John Wick film. [John Wick] may be [dead]... We are all on bated breath waiting to find out," she said.

Brown also expressed excitement about the other projects in the John Wick franchise, including the upcoming spinoff film, Ballerina. The movie's events occur between Chapter 3 and Chapter 4, featuring Reeves alongside lead star Ana de Armas.

The John Wick saga isn’t slowing down anytime soon. Word’s out from ComicBook that ‘John Wick 5’ is officially in development, and I’m already itching to see what’s next for this bullet-riddled world. The franchise has kept us hooked with its slick action and brooding hero, but here’s the catch—nobody knows if Keanu Reeves will step back into John Wick’s blood-stained shoes.

The fifth movie’s green light comes after ‘John Wick: Chapter 4’ smashed it at the box office, pulling in over $440 million. That ending, though—Keanu’s character took a nasty fall, and we last saw Winston and the Bowery King at his grave. It felt final, but Hollywood’s never shy about digging up a good story. Still, Keanu, now 60, might be ready to call it quits after four rounds of relentless fights. Nothing’s confirmed, and that’s what’s got me on edge.

Gene Hackman, nothing less than a titan of the screen, has left us. He was announced dead at the age of 95, along with his wife Betsy Arakawa and one of their dogs, under strange circumstances that are still being investigated. Hackman left the world with a career full of iconic performances, including two Oscar-winning turns in The French Connection and Unforgiven, as well as nominations for Bonnie and Clyde, I Never Sang For My Father, and Mississippi Burning.

This is only scratching the surface of his legacy; mainstream audiences most likely recognize him as Lex Luthor in the 1978 Superman, as the mix of comedy and menace he brought to the role defined one of the most iconic versions of that character. Hackman actually retired from acting in 2004, citing how the intensity of being on set was having effects on his heart condition. Yet one of his final roles in The Royal Tenenbaums,...

On Sunday 9 March 2025, BBC One broadcasts Towards Zero!

Season 1 Episode 2 Episode Summary

The upcoming episode of “Towards Zero,” airing on BBC One, promises to be filled with suspense and intrigue. After an explosive night, the calm of Gull’s Point is shattered by a shocking murder discovered at the estate. This unexpected turn of events sets the stage for a gripping investigation.

Detective Leach finds himself in a challenging position. With the weight of the murder on his shoulders, he must dig deep to find his purpose once again. The dark secrets of Gull’s Point are waiting to be uncovered, and Leach’s determination will be put to the test. As he navigates through the complexities of the case, viewers can expect twists and turns that will keep them on the edge of their seats.

The episode explores themes of loss, redemption, and the struggle to confront the past.

Only three years before his retirement, citing health concerns, late actorGene Hackman, who passed away recently, reminded fans of his unmatchable acting potential by stealing the thunder from an ensemble cast featuring Anjelica Houston, Ben Stiller, Luke Wilson, Gwyneth Paltrow, Bill Murray, and Owen Wilson. In the role of the absentee patriarch Royal O'Reilly Tenenbaum, Hackman brought to the screen both his character's eccentricity and the sincerity that lies at the heart of all emotions evoked by the 2001 Wes Anderson film, The Royal Tenenbaums. While it may be unimaginable now to think of the film without Hackman's portrayal of the callous patriarch, he initially rejected one of his last iconic roles in a career spanning six decades that ended with 2004's Welcome to Mooseport.

"Someone, somewhere, unbeknownst to us, laying a trap..." "What have you done?!"

A brand-new trailer for Ballerina has arrived, spotlighting its stars Ana de Armas and Keanu Reeves. The eagerly anticipated John Wick spinoff movie will hit theaters on June 6.

The thirty-second teaser opens with de Armas' main protagonist, Eve Macarro, at the famed Continental Hotel for a meet-up with Ian Mcshane's Winstone Scott as she hunts her father's killer. The Ballerina trailer teases the high-octane action fans can expect and concludes with Eve and Reeves' John Wick sharing the screen as the titular veteran assassin is about to go to war. The upcoming film reportedly takes place during the events of John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum.

Ellen Pompeo recently shared an emotional moment on the set of Grey's Anatomy that had her struggling to keep her emotions in check. She said her daughter also cried at the scene.

Comic-book fans can continue to marvel at how he set the standard for villainous characters with his take on Lex Luthor in "Superman: The Movie." Fans of modern action movies are no doubt fondly remembering his work in the tense and sweaty thriller "Crimson Tide," among other examples. And the number of dramas he made, introspective or otherwise, are nearly innumerable. You can find so many examples of brilliance in Gene Hackman's list of credits, across so many genres. One of the most common threads throughout his career was his deft ability to create effectively memorable confrontations with his fellow performers, taking what's written on...

Gene Hackman’s film career is shorthand for greatness, from roles like Francis Ford Coppola’s The Conversation to Clint Eastwood’s Unforgiven. As Rolling Stone’s Rob Sheffield put it, “no film was ever worse off for having Hackman in it.” The actor, born in 1930, had his breakout role in Bonnie and Clyde before appearing in The French Connection, which won him the Best Actor award at the Oscars.

Royal O’Reilly Tenenbaum 1932-2001: Died Tragically Rescuing His Family From The Wreckage Of A Destroyed Sinking Battleship

– Royal Tenenbaum’s epitaph

Wes Anderson’s The Royal Tenenbaums (2001) is not Gene Hackman’s final film. But it feels now, in the wake of the sad news of his death at the age of 95, that Tenenbaums — a witty, warm comic family drama about a flawed patriarch who re-enters his family’s life after years of absence and estrangement — is a beautifully appropriate swansong for the beloved actor. In its own sardonic, eccentric sort of way, it is a story of a man in his twilight years, reaching the end of his life and surveying what he has, what he misses, what he values. It is sweet, it is surprising, and in a career disproportionately stacked with brilliant performances, it possesses one of the best Gene Hackman performances ever recorded on celluloid.
