Ballerina: A Deadly New Assassin Rises in the John Wick Universe This June 6, 2025!

Ballerina: A Deadly Dance of Vengeance Unfolds on June 6, 2025

The John Wick universe expands once more, and this time, the ballet of bullets and bloodshed takes center stage. On June 6, 2025, Ballerina will introduce audiences to a new assassin with a personal vendetta, proving that the world of professional killers is far from finished.

A New Assassin, A Familiar Underworld

Set between the events of John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum and John Wick: Chapter 4, Ballerina follows Rooney (played by Ana de Armas), a highly trained assassin raised under the brutal discipline of the Ruska Roma—the same deadly syndicate that once shaped John Wick himself.

Rooney’s life takes a violent turn when her family is slaughtered, setting her on a relentless mission of vengeance. Unlike Wick’s cold precision, her approach is a fusion of elegance and lethality, turning her ballet training into a devastating combat style that blends poise with pure brutality. Every move is a calculated strike, every step a piece of choreography in the deadly dance of revenge.

Expanding the John Wick Mythology

While Ballerina introduces a fresh protagonist, it remains deeply rooted in the lore of John Wick. Fans will recognize familiar faces, including Ian McShane as Winston, Lance Reddick in one of his final performances as Charon, and Anjelica Huston reprising her role as the enigmatic Director. And while Keanu Reeves himself is expected to make an appearance, this film belongs to Rooney—a warrior carving her own path in the unforgiving world of assassins.

The film also explores new corners of the underworld, diving deeper into the hidden factions and power struggles that govern this brutal society. From blood-soaked safe houses to the opulent yet merciless halls of the High Table, Ballerina promises to unravel more of the intricate web that connects these deadly operatives.

An Action-Packed Ballet of Brutality

If John Wick revolutionized action with its seamless blend of gun-fu and martial arts, Ballerina brings a fresh, unique style to the genre. With choreography that merges the grace of ballet with the intensity of close-quarters combat, the film delivers high-stakes action sequences unlike anything seen before. Under the direction of Len Wiseman (Underworld, Live Free or Die Hard), expect a film that’s both visually stunning and relentlessly thrilling.

The Stage is Set – June 6, 2025

With its June 6, 2025 release date, Ballerina is poised to be the next great chapter in the John Wick saga. The film is more than just a spin-off—it’s a statement that the world of assassins is vast, deadly, and still full of untold stories.
