From the World of John Wick: Ballerina unveils teaser featuring Lance Reddick
The film will feature the late actor in his final role.
A new behind-the-scenes look at John Wick spin-off film Ballerina has been unveiled, and it features interview footage with the late Lance Reddick.
Reddick, who played Charon, the concierge at the Continental Hotel in the action franchise, passed away in 2023, with Ballerina expected to provide us with his final role.
In the teaser, Reddick is seen saying of the film: "When I read the script, I didn't think you could find a way to expand the world in a way that felt completely different and at the same time completely connected - but it did."
The teaser also features interviews with stars Ana de Armas, Norman Reedus and Ian McShane, as well as with director Len Wiseman and producers Chad Stahelski and Erica Lee.
You can watch it right here now.
The film is expected to take place between the events of John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum and John Wick: Chapter 4, explaining Charon's appearance, given that the character was killed off in Chapter 4.
