However, according to a new report fromThe Wrap, John Wick director Chad Stahelski was brought in to do more than just oversee tweaks to the action. According to the publication sources, Stahelski “had to reshoot most of the movie”. They also allege that “a significant portion of Ballerina was reshot in Prague, with Wiseman not present on set”.
“Of course Chad had to clean up someone else’s mess. Remember, this film is basically ‘John Wick 3.5,'” an insider told The Wrap. “This story happens before John Wick 4 and after that film, they can’t have a failure in anything Wick related.” They added: “Chad is going to do Highlander, but cleaning up Ballerina pushed him by five months for sure.”
GamesRadar+ has reached out to Lionsgate for comment.Ballerina has since released its first action-packed trailer, which even gives us a glimpse at Keanu Reeves back as the assassin.
