Fresh off slaying zombies and delivering blockbuster performances in The Walking Dead, Norman Reedus, known for portraying Daryl Dixon, is leveling up yet again. His gritty, emotional speech in Season 5 won hearts, but ironically, Hollywood seems to think otherwise. Why? Because he just landed a role in an upcoming 2025 film alongside the incredibly talented Ana de Armas. Looks like being too good at pretending to be bad has its perks—just ask Reedus.

Excitement is soaring as Norman Reedus and Ana de Armas gear up to deliver an adrenaline-fueled 2025 thriller, promising intense action, gripping suspense, and unforgettable performances on the big screen.

Originally slated for June 7, 2024, Ballerina, set in the John Wick universe, will now hit US theaters on June 6, 2025. Although principal filming wrapped in 2023, additional scenes required extra photography, pushing the release back by a full year.

Fans eagerly await the action-packed thriller’s long-anticipated arrival on the big screen.

While a film’s plot is its backbone, it can make or break audience interest. A compelling storyline fuels anticipation, setting expectations sky-high for an unforgettable cinematic experience.

The John Wick films prioritize action over intricate storytelling, and Ballerina will likely follow that formula. The story follows Eve, a skilled dancer-turned-assassin, who sets out on a relentless mission to avenge her slain family. Ana de Armas steps into the role, bringing both star power and emotional depth.

The spinoff ties into the larger John Wick universe, offering a fresh perspective on its lore. With its 2025 release locked in, the September 2024 trailer teased explosive action, returning characters, and Keanu Reeves’ much-anticipated comeback.

The cast is the heart of a movie; fans love seeing their favorite stars bring characters to life on screen, adding excitement and anticipation.

In early 2022, it was officially confirmed that Ana de Armas would take over the role of Eve, replacing Unity Phelan, who briefly appeared in John Wick: Chapter 3. A number of familiar faces from the John Wick universe will be back, such as Keanu Reeves as the relentless assassin and Ian McShane as Winston.

Anjelica Huston returns as the Director of the Ruska Roma syndicate, while Lance Reddick reprises his role as Charon. The Walking Dead: The Ones Who Live hits a historic milestone on Netflix after its 2024 debut, and Norman Reedus from The Walking Dead is portraying a character named Pine.
