New Trailer for Ballerina Sees Ana de Armas in the Crosshairs of John Wick
In a final push to hype up audiences for the upcoming film, From the World of John Wick: Ballerina, Lionsgate has released a new trailer featuring Ana de Armas in a deadly showdown with Keanu Reeves’ iconic character, John Wick. According to a report from Ars Technica, the film is set to hit theaters on June 6, 2025.
The film, which takes place during the events of John Wick Chapter 3: Parabellum, follows the story of Eve Macarro, played by Unity Phelan in a brief appearance, and now by Ana de Armas. As reported by Ars Technica, Ballerina chronicles Eve’s journey as a young ballerina-assassin trained by the Ruska Roma crime syndicate, led by the enigmatic Director, played by Anjelica Huston.
The film boasts an impressive cast, including Ian McShane as Winston, and Lance Reddick in his final appearance as the Continental concierge, Charon. Newcomers to the franchise include Gabriel Byrne as the main villain, the Chancellor; Sharon Duncan-Brewster as Nogi, Eve’s mentor; Norman Reedus as Daniel Pine; and Catalina Sandino Moreno and David Castaneda in as-yet-undisclosed roles. As Ars Technica notes, the film promises to deliver the same high-octane action that fans of the franchise have come to expect.
The first trailer, released last September, focused heavily on Eve’s backstory, showcasing her decision to train with the Ruska Roma in hopes of avenging her father’s brutal death. While John Wick only made a brief appearance, he had more screen time in the second trailer, released in March, in which the pair face off in an atmospheric wintry landscape. This final trailer, however, sees de Armas in the crosshairs of Wick, with much of the ensuing footage showcasing her deadly skills as she takes on combatant after combatant in true John Wick style.
As Ars Technica reports, de Armas’ character is driven by a singular focus: "This isn’t done until they’re dead." With the film just three weeks away from its theatrical release, fans will have to wait and see how Ballerina fits into the larger John Wick universe.
The John Wick franchise has become synonymous with high-stakes action and intricate world-building. As Ars Technica notes, Ballerina promises to deliver more of the same, with de Armas bringing her own unique brand of intensity to the role. With its June 6 release date fast approaching, fans of the franchise will be eagerly anticipating the film’s arrival.
In conclusion, the final trailer for From the World of John Wick: Ballerina has been released, showcasing Ana de Armas in a deadly showdown with John Wick. According to Ars Technica, the film promises to deliver high-octane action and intricate world-building, making it a must-see for fans of the franchise.
