Ballerina – A Deadly Dance in the John Wick Universe

              

💃 “She Dances With Grace… And Kills Without Mercy”

The John Wick Universe is expanding — and Ballerina is leading the charge with a fierce, female-led assassin story. Starring Ana de Armas, this upcoming action-thriller blends elegance, revenge, and the brutal style we’ve come to love from Wick’s world.

If you thought John was intense, wait until you meet her.


🎬 What is Ballerina About?

Set between the events of John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum and Chapter 4, Ballerina follows a young assassin named Rooney, who was trained in the same underground ballet academy that raised John Wick.

After her family is murdered, she sets out on a bloody mission of vengeance — using everything she learned from her days as a performer… and killer.

🎙️ Ana de Armas: “It’s the most physically demanding role I’ve ever done.”
