“You loved her for 15 minutes in James Bond? You’ll love her for 2 hours”: Ballerina, the John Wick spin-off with Ana de Armas, gives her news


While the prequel series “The Continental” begins this Friday, September 22 on Prime Video, the “John Wick” saga will then continue with “Ballerina”, a spin-off led by Ana de Armas and of which the director gives some little news.
The article below contains some spoilers for “John Wick 4”, since it notably discusses its ending. Please move on if you haven’t seen it yet.

“We are currently on break, but I have just finished the director’s cut” : the future spin-off of John Wick is doing well, thank you for it. And it’s its director Len Wiseman ( Underworld , Die Hard 4 ) who gives us some news about Ballerina in the pages of Entertainment Weekly .
“The filming was incredible. It’s a really fun film ,” adds the director. Obviously very classic and promotional remarks around a feature film whose American release is scheduled for June 7, 2024, while no date has yet been announced for France.

But Len Wiseman then gives his shock (and tantalizing) sentence, when the journalist who interviews him expresses his impatience at the idea of ​​seeing Ana de Armas in an action role even more pronounced than the one she was in No Time to Die , the latest James Bond film.
“Right? That’s exactly what we’re going to do. Did you love it for 15 minutes [at James Bond]? You’re going to love it for two hours!” If the film lives up to this punchline, it’s an understatement to say that the result will be pleasing.

However, the director will not say more, and we will have to wait a little longer to discover the plot (and the fights). For the moment, we know that this spin-off will follow one of the dancers/killers interviewed in John Wick 3 , trained by Anjelica Huston who will be back.
IS THE FUTURE (OF THE SAGA) A LONG PAST?Given her fate in the film released in 2019, there is a good chance that the events of Ballerina will take place before then. And the observation also applies to Keanu Reeves , also announced in the casting.

Officially, the hero died at the end of episode 4 , at the request of his interpreter, exhausted from previous filming, as producer Basil Iwanyk revealed to Collider .
Since the body was not shown in his coffin, the possibility of a John Wick 5 still exists, and an alternative ending was even supposed to show it more explicitly. But Ballerina is not intended to announce this new film, and the presence of Keanu Reeves will serve as a bridge between the two branches of the action saga.
With a plot that will most certainly be inserted between two opuses. It remains to be seen which ones. And when the first images of Ballerina will be revealed. In the meantime, it is on the small screen thanks to the prequel series The Continental , visible from September 22 on Prime Video, that the saga continues.

‘I am officially off the market’: When Margot Robbie revealed she made the ‘conscious’ decision of not dating actors


Margot Robbie revealed her decision to not date actors because of the media scrutiny that came with a public relationship of two high-profile actors
Back in 2015, A-lister Margot Robbie made a declaration that she would not be dating any actors. The actress may have alluded to her fiance Tom Ackerley, who she married the following year in 2016. In an exclusive interview with Marie Claire, she revealed that being in a relationship as an actor herself came with its own set of challenges. She believed that dating someone who was popular would add on to the media scrutiny.

Margot Robbie opened up on why she made a conscious decision to not date actorsTalking to Marie Claire, she claimed, “I am officially off the market.” She then shared the reasoning behind her decision and added, “I made a conscious decision not to date actors.” She continued to explain, “But not because I hate actors. That’s a nasty generalization to make, and that’s not the case. People take such an interest in your love life when you have a profile, it puts a lot of stress on a relationship.”
The Barbie actress continued, “So two people with profiles, I figure it’s just double the amount of scrutiny, and I’d like to avoid that at all costs.” This came after reports of her locking lips with Tarzan co-star Alexander Skarsgard started making rounds. It was reported that she was caught kissing the actor during the Sundance Film Festival.

Margot Robbie revealed she opted for a minimal lifestyle even after becoming an actorIn the interview, Robbie also opened up about how she was adapting to fame. She shared, “I have a normal 24-year-old life. If I were a waitress, I’d probably have the exact same lifestyle. I’d go to the same clubs I go to already, live in the same house with the same housemates, hang out with the same people.”
However, Margot Robbie tied the knot with Tom Ackerley who is an English producer and actor. The duo met on the sets of 2013 movie Suite Francaise where Tom was working as an assistant director. Post marriage, both of them launched their production company LuckyChap Entertainment.

‘Rocky’ Was Quite Different In His Original Screenplay, Sylvester Stallone Claims


Sylvester Stallone took his friend’s advice on a rewrite of the original screenplay to Rocky. A few tweaks later, he was on his way to major success.
In the new Netflix documentary Sly, Stallone discussed how he initially conceived of the project, which had a much harder edge. In the early version, Rocky was depicted as a “thuggish” character, inspired by Martin Scorsese’s crime drama, Mean Streets.

But Stallone’s perspective changed when a friend read the script and thought the boxer was too cruel for audiences to actually care about him.
Stallone recalled her crying.

“She goes, ‘I hate Rocky. I hate him. He’s cruel. He hits people. He beats them up.’”
Stallone took it to heart, and asked what he could do to soften the character.

“I said, ‘what if you stop short of it?’ Like, maybe he almost did. He could have, that’s his job, but he doesn’t?’ ‘That’d be nice,’” he added. “I said, ‘What if he had a girlfriend or something?’ ‘Yeah, that’s nice.’ So I go back, start writing that: ‘Girlfriend. Nice.’”
$117 million in box office later, a franchise was born.

Stallone also revealed that actor Dolph Lundgren sent him to the hospital during one fight scene in Rocky IV.
“Dolph Lundgren… he pulverized me,” Stallone says in the documentary. “Later that night, my heart started to swell—which happens when the heart hits the chest—and then my blood pressure went up to 260, and they thought I was going to be talking to angels. Next thing I know, I’m in intensive care, where I’m surrounded by nuns, and I thought, ‘OK, that’s curtains.’”
Stallone was in the hospital for nine days following the incident, praying for “one more round.”
“For the first minute of the fight, it is going to be a free-for-all,” Stallone told Lundgren. The Swedish actor joked in a separate interview that all he did was “obey orders,” explaining, “[Stallone] was the boss. I did what he told me.”
Doctors allegedly told Stallone that he received a blow to the ribs that made his heart rattle around in his ribcage, a condition typically seen in head-on collisions. “I did hit a bus, of sorts,” Stallone joked.
