Every single person in the world right now who is a fan of action movies has a movie or TV show that ignited the passion for the genre in them. For the most part, the love for action movies in the newer generation came from watching a guy going berserk on an ungodly number of people to avenge his dog. Released in 2014, John Wick defined an entire generation of fans, and now a brand new character is set to emerge from the world of John Wick in Ballerina with Ana De Armas. So, now that the movie is closing in on us, here is everything about Ballerina’s release date, cast, plot, trailer, and everything else you might want to know.

What Is Ballerina’s Release Date?

Ballerina is set to release on June 6, 2025, in theatres worldwide. Initially, the John Wick spinoff movie was announced in 2017 and was scheduled to release in 2024, however, it faced delays due to SAG-AFTRA strikes and other reasons. Moreover, there were reshoots involving action sequences when Chad Stahelski, the director of the John Wick franchise, got more involved in the movie. This led to the postponement of the release date.

Is There a Trailer For Ballerina?

The trailer for Ballerina was released a while ago, and by the looks of the trailer, Ana De Armas as Eve is going to be another name to go hand in hand with that of John Wick. Other than that, recently, an official clip for Ballernia was released by Lionsgate featuring Keanu Reeves. After watching the said clips we have for Ballerina, I am inclined to say that I am indeed pretty excited to watch this movie in the theatre.

Since Ballerina takes place in the world of John Wick, it is bound to feature some familiar faces we have already seen in the previous movies. First off, the lead is being taken by Ana De Armas as Eve, an assassin who is on a mission to find and kill the people who had killed her family, especially her father.

Other than that, Keanu Reeves appears in Ballerina as John Wick in a cameo. While these two are the highlight of Ballerina, we will also see the return of Lance Reddick as Charon and Ian McShane as Winston Scott. The cherry on top is the first appearance of Norman Reedus as Pine in the John Wick franchise, and there is a good chance that he might appear in future projects as well.

Ballerina Cast List

What Could Be the Plot of Ballerina?

Not a lot of details regarding Ballerina are available to us as of now, but what we do know is that Ballerina’s plot is also going to feature a revenge arc. Eve (Ana De Armas) is an assassin who trained with the Ruska Roma since she was a child and now has embarked on a mission to find and kill the people who killed her family.

Other than that, we also know that Ballerina is taking place during the events of John Wick 3, so that puts things into further perspective. Initially, Ballerina was set to be placed between the events of John Wick 3 and 4, but later it was set parallel to John Wick 3. With that being said, it explains the scars on Wick’s face as he meets Eve in the trailer and the clips we have for the movie.
