The first trailer for John Wick spin-off Ballerina is here and, it's a neon-drenched, stylish revenge tale packed with action – very John Wick, in other words.
In the brief clip, which can be viewed below, we get our first look at Ana de Armas as Eve Macarro, a young female assassin who seeks revenge against the people who killed her family. The film takes place between the events of John Wick Chapter 3 and Chapter 4. Lance Riddick, Ian McShane, and Angelica Huston return from the movies – as does Keanu Reeves's Wick. We see Rooney ask him how to start doing what he does, with the assassin dryly replying: "Looks like you already have."
Len Wiseman (Total Recall) directs from a screenplay by John Wick screenwriter Shay Hatten. The cast includes Reeves, Gabriel Byrne as the film's main antagonist, Catalina Sandino Moreno, Sharon Duncan-Brewster, and David Castaneda. The late Reddick is making his final on-screen appearance as Charon in the movie. A potential sequel to Ballerina is already being discussed.

This isn't the first John Wick spin-off: TV show The Continental, the origin story of Winston, debuted to mixed but mostly positive reviews last year.
