Five actors have been cast in the upcoming female-led action thriller Ballerina Overdrive from The Witcher: Blood Origin director Vicky Jewson who is set to helm the film based on a script by Kate Freund (Afterlife). Deadpool and John Wick director David Leitch is producing.

The new cast members include Lena Headey (Game of Thrones), Yara Shahidi (Grown-ish), Isabela Merced (Father of the Bride), Lana Condor (Moonshot), Millicent Simmonds (A Quiet Place) and Iris Apatow (The Bubble).

The story follows “a troupe of ballerinas who find themselves fighting for survival as they attempt to escape from a remote inn after their bus breaks down on the way to a dance competition.”

Sounds like it has a Yellowjackets vibe to me. Filming is set to commence in Serbia in the second quarter of 2023.
