Ballerina: How is John Wick Alive in Ana de Armas’ Spin-off Movie?

As a die-hard fan of the John Wick franchise who has seen every movie multiple times and can recite whole scenes verbatim, I must say that the trailer for From the World of John Wick: Ballerina left me both excited and puzzled. The appearance of Keanu Reeves’ iconic character, John Wick, in the spin-off film has sparked a flurry of speculation among fans like myself, especially since we saw him meet his apparent demise in Chapter 4.

The long-anticipated trailer for the film titled “From the World of John Wick: Ballerina” has been released at last. This installment hails from the legendary John Wick series, and introduces Ana de Armas’ character Eve Macarro as she enters the assassin world as a deadly killer. The intriguing narrative of the action-packed thriller is generating buzz, but there’s another aspect that has sparked excitement among fans: the reappearance of franchise protagonist John Wick, portrayed by Keanu Reeves. Given that he perished in John Wick: Chapter 4, viewers are left wondering how John Wick is depicted as alive in Ballerina.

Here is everything you need to know about the character’s presence in the spin-off film.

How is Keanu Reeves’ John Wick alive in Ballerina?

In the movie “Ballerina,” we delve into a period within the John Wick series’ timeline, where we find out that John Wick is still alive.

In the thrill of anticipation as a devoted fan, I must admit I was taken aback by the sight of John Wick in the Ballerina trailer. After all, we saw him seemingly meet his end in John Wick: Chapter 4, right? Yet, there he was, setting off a whirlwind of speculation that maybe, just maybe, Keanu Reeves’ John Wick is somehow still among us.

Beyond the trailer, Ballerina offers several clues about its narrative timeline. In the preview, de Armas’ character Eve Macarro is depicted dancing on stage during a ballet performance. Moreover, she covertly observes John Wick and Anjelica Huston descending a staircase together. This scene appears to be a continuation of the theater visit in John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum, where Wick interacted with Huston’s character as the Director. In that movie, a ballerina performed on stage, portrayed by Unity Phelan, although her part was relatively minor. It’ll be exciting to see how this spin-off film enriches the established John Wick franchise.

From the World of John Wick: Ballerina is slated to release on June 6, 2025.
