- From the World of John Wick: Ballerina would not arrange occasions to return in John Wick Chapter 5
- Ballerina‘s place on the John Wick timeline made that not possible, its director admits
- John Wick icon Ian McShane says discussions are ongoing concerning the titular hitman’s subsequent story
There have been by no means any discussions about how From the World of John Wick: Ballerina might arrange John Wick Chapter 5.
That’s in keeping with Ballerina director Len Wiseman, who advised TechRadar such a situation was on account of Ballerina‘s place on the John Wick timeline.
For those that may not remember: Ballerina is ready between John Wick Chapter 3: Parabellum and John Wick Chapter 4. Chronologically, meaning it is the fourth movie that followers ought to watch as a part of any Wick-Verse film marathon. For extra info on that entrance, take a look at my information on methods to watch the John Wick motion pictures so as.
But I digress. With Ballerina‘s story wrapping up earlier than John Wick Chapter 4 begins, it would not make sense for the Ana de Armas-led installment to pave the best way for Keanu Reeves’ subsequent outing because the titular murderer.
When I requested if there have been ever any plans to arrange John Wick Chapter 5‘s plot inside Ballerina’s story or through a post-credits scene, Wiseman replied: “With this, we have been solely centered on what Ballerina‘s story was.
“Because it straddles the third and fourth John Wick movies, there weren’t any conversations about what this essentially does for John Wick Chapter 5. So, no, we simply centered on this story and methods to convey the character of Eve into this world.”
That is not to say that inside talks have taken place about what John Wick 5‘s story may very well be. In a separate interview, I requested Ian McShane, who’s performed The Continental New York supervisor Winston Scott within the franchise’s 5 motion pictures to date, if he’d heard something concerning the subsequent Reeves-fronted installment, which continues to be within the very early levels of growth.
“There are a number of choices,” McShane teased. “But no one appears to know what is going on on with it in the meanwhile.
“Of course, they [John Wick’s chief creative team] need it to go on for so long as potential. There’s an anime film that’ll be nice, and there is a potential TV collection referred to as Under the High Table, which I consider they’re delivering the scripts for proper about now.
“I do not suppose anyone thought the John Wick universe would grow to be as massive as it’s,” McShane added, “And now it is about protecting the monster underneath management whereas increasing it in new instructions. That’s why we have got this movie Ballerina, which I feel Len [Wiseman] did an excellent job with, and Ana [de Armas] is incredible in. You should have contemporary blood coming into franchises like this to assist it develop.”
In brief, we’ll simply have to attend for extra particulars from the ‘gun-fu’ collection’ creators about what John Wick Chapter 5 will entail. In the meantime, prepare to look at From the World of John Wick: Ballerina, aka considered one of 2025’s most enjoyable new motion pictures, which can make its worldwide theatrical debut on Friday, June 6.
