It was recently confirmed that Reeves will play John Wick a fifth time in the spin-off film Ballerina, which will star Ana de Armas in the lead role of a killer ballerina who hunts down the assassins responsible for murdering her family.
So far, there’s no official word on when the spin-off will premiere in theaters.

The cast and crew ended up shooting predominantly in Berlin, Germany and Paris, France, along with some additional work in Japan and New York City.
With post-production nearly complete, the promotional push for JW4 has officially kicked into overdrive while de Armas has already started filming the spin-off in Prague.
The John Wick franchise stands as both a critical and commercial success, with a collective gross of the first three films topping $587 million worldwide.

The original John Wick (2014) earned $86 million on a budget of between $20-30 million, paving the way for a blockbuster sequel in 2017.
John Wick: Chapter 2 almost doubled the first film’s box office receipts, raking in $171.5 million against a budget of $40 million.
And audiences flocked to see John Wick: Chapter 3: Parabellum in 2019, helping it to amass $327.3 million at the worldwide box office on a budget of $75 million.
The fourth installment in the franchise has upped the budget to $90 million, but in a post-Covid world, it remains to be seen whether audiences will turn out in droves once again.
