Overview

• From the World of John Wick: Ballerina opens June 6, 2025, slotting between Chapter 3 and Chapter 4 and starring Ana de Armas as ballet-trained assassin Eve Macarro.
• Director Len Wiseman clarified that 2024 Budapest shoots were planned additions to reintegrate high-octane scenes rather than remedial reshoots.
• Keanu Reeves features prominently in posters and trailers despite limited on-set days, underscoring his marketing role in the spin-off.
• Lance Reddick’s Charon makes a bittersweet posthumous appearance in footage filmed before his 2023 passing.
• Lionsgate views Ballerina’s success as a barometer for future spin-offs and a John Wick 5 that, as Ian McShane notes, hinges on Reeves’ availability.
