BALLERINA Star Ana de Armas Teases "Amazing Footage" Shot During Reshoots and Its "Beautiful" Trailer
Ana de Armas recently opened up about her upcoming John Wick spinoff film, Ballerina, which is set to arrive in theaters next summer.
During an interview with Collider, she talked about the reshoots that were done on the film and teased the first trailer, which should be coming soon.
The movie was originally supposed to be released this past summer, but it was pushed back a year to shoot some additional action sequences with John Wick director Chad Stahelski.
De Armas talked about those reshoots saying: "All we did in those reshoots had to be there. We got amazing footage. It's really spectacular. A trailer is coming out soon, I've been told. I saw it, and it's beautiful.
“I'm very proud of it. It's really exciting. It's dangerous, it's sexy, it's very John Wick. I think people are going to be surprised. I'm biased. Of course, I like the movie, but I think it's really cool. It's going to be amazing."
When the reshoots were first announced, actor Ian McShane, who returns to play Winston for Ballerina, said that they filmed entirely new scenes for the film in order to help Ballerina be more in line with the larger John Wick franchise.
McShane explained: "It's not reshoots, it's new shoots. They're shooting for Ballerina, which is the spinoff with Ana de Armas of the John Wick franchise. You know, it's like they've got to protect the franchise.
“And obviously I did it, when was it? We did it about a year ago, we did the movie Ballerina and they've looked at it, and Chad's come in, the guy who directed all the John Wick movies, and they want to make it better.
“Because they have to protect it. Because Keanu's in it as well, and it takes place between John Wick 3 and John Wick 4."
The movie is set between John Wick 3 and John Wick 4, and the story focuses on a young female assassin who seeks revenge against the people who killed her family.
I’ve seen footage from the movie, and from what I saw, it looked pretty damn awesome!
