“Ballerina” is the upcoming film that will join the John Wick universe to continue the story of one of the franchise’s most beloved characters: a ballerina assassin named Eve Macarro (played by the talented Ana de Armas).
Details about the plot have not been fully revealed yet, but sources like Parade report that it follows Eve on a mission to hunt down the people who killed her family, and that she is “trained in the traditions of the Ruska Roma”.
Keanu Reeves and other original stars from the franchise will join the Cuban-Spanish actress in two main roles, alongside Norman Reedus (The Walking Dead), who is one of the key additions to the new cast.
When is Ballerina coming to theaters?
Now that Lionsgate has released the first teaser for “Ballerina”, we not only have an idea of what to expect, but we also know when it will hit the big screen. It is scheduled to debut on June 6, 2025.
The action drama will arrive just in time to be part of the summer blockbuster season. Its delay from 2024 has worked in its favor, and it will undoubtedly be one of the most anticipated titles of next year.
When will Ballerina be released on streaming?
As expected, “Ballerina” will not have a unique streaming debut, but will first go through theaters. It is still unknown when it might arrive, but it is confirmed that it will join the Peacock catalog at some point in 2025.
It is estimated that it could arrive about six months after its theatrical release, meaning it would be available by December. This pattern is based on Lionsgate‘s recent history, as seen with its John Wick films.
