The cast also includes Anjelica Huston, Gabriel Byrne, Lance Reddick, Catalina Sandino Moreno, Norman Reedus and Ian McShane. Ballerina is directed by Len Wiseman.

"I'm very proud of it. It's really exciting. It's dangerous, it's sexy, it's very John Wick," de Armas previously told Collider of the film. "I think people are going to be surprised. I'm biased. Of course, I like the movie, but I think it's really cool. It's going to be amazing."
The new movie was originally intended to release in June 2024; Deadline previously reported that it was delayed so Chad Stahelski, who has directed every other John Wick entry, could work with Wiseman further on the movie's action sequences.
Despite John Wick: Chapter 4's ambiguous ending, Reeves himself is expected to continue playing the assassin in the franchise's main series. Lionsgate executive Joe Drake confirmed that movie was in the works during a May 2023 earnings call, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Another spin-off, the series The Continental: From the World of John Wick, starred Colin Woodell and Mel Gibson and debuted on Peacock in 2023.
From the World of John Wick: Ballerina is in theaters June 6.
