‘John Wick’ Universe Movie ‘Ballerina’ Starring Ana de Armas Will Film This Summer
Originally announced a few years back, the John Wick Cinematic Universe is getting its first spinoff movie with Ballerina, and Ana de Armas is on board to lead the movie’s cast.
Lionsgate revealed during their CinemaCon presentation last night that Ballerina is very much still on the way, with filming on the John Wick spinoff set to begin this summer!
Last we heard, Len Wiseman (Underworld, “Swamp Thing”) was directing Ballerina.
“Ballerina focuses on a young female assassin who seeks revenge against the people who killed her family.”
Revealed in Chapter 3, Anjelica Huston’s character the Director trains ballerinas in the same facility where Wick was trained to be an assassin, so the groundwork has already been laid.
With three installments and a fourth one on the way, the John Wick franchise has only been getting more and more popular as the years go on, so it’s only natural that the franchise is aiming to become a full-on cinematic universe. The best part? It’s hardly a forced idea, as the franchise is absolutely *loaded* with compelling mythology that’s ripe for expansion.
As for John Wick Chapter 4, expect that one in March 2023!

Just two months after his daughter Ishana Night Shyamalan debuts on the big screen with horror movie The Watchers, M. Night Shyamalan is back with his new thriller Trap.
M. Night Shyamalan’s new thriller for Warner Bros. – the sixteenth movie in his Oscar-nominated career thus far – is headed to movie theaters nationwide on August 9, 2024.
Watch the official trailer below to begin a twisted new mystery-box experience, which features performances by rising music star Saleka Shyamalan as fictional pop star Lady Raven.
In the upcoming thriller starring Josh Hartnett, “A father and teen daughter attend a pop concert, where they realize they’re at the center of a dark and sinister event.”
As the official trailer for Trap reveals, the pop concert is actually an elaborate trap designed to catch The Butcher, a sadistic serial killer who has been evading authorities.
Hartnett had recently described the mysterious film as “very bizarre” and “very dark.”
According to IMDb, the cast for Trap also includes Hayley Mills, Marnie McPhail, Vanessa Smythe, Saleka Shyamalan, Scott Ian MacDougall, Kristi Woods, and Cali Lorella.
Trap is the first film Shyamalan has made under his new deal with Warner Bros., which has been described as a “multi-year first-look directing and producing agreement.”
The film is produced by Ashwin Rajan, Marc Bienstock and M. Night Shyamalan.
The executive producer is Steven Schneider.
