‘Ballerina’ actress Ana de Armas offered a detailed look at what makes Keanu Reeves so special as ‘John Wick.’

Fans of the popular movie series John Wick have a lot to be excited about in the near future. Along with the announcement of John Wick: Chapter 5 and a John Wick television show, the spin-off Ballerina, starring Ana de Armas, is set to be released on June 6, 2025.

Keanu Reeves has thrived in the starring role of each main film in the series, and will also be in Ballerina. After filming alongside Reeves for the upcoming spin-off, de Armas has had nothing but the highest praise for the 60-year-old actor.

This was the case again when she sat down to speak with Fandango about the upcoming film. After praising Reeves for his approach during training and rehearsal, de Armas couldn’t say enough about his relentless approach to the role of John Wick.

“On set, he’s just down for anything, and he just wants to go again and again and again,” de Armas explained of Wick. “… He’s relentless and tireless and a perfectionist.”

Director Len Wiseman also chimed in, explaining that Reeves is “hard on himself to get it perfect, which is phenomenal.”

It’s no surprise to hear the dedication Reeves puts into his craft. And considering how successful the John Wick franchise has been, making over $1 billion worldwide, it’s safe to assume fans won’t be disappointed by the upcoming fifth film and its spin-off, Ballerina.
