Ian McShane Talks ‘Ballerina’: A Different John Wick Film with ‘The Continental’ Scenes
In an interview with Variety, McShane calls ‘Ballerina’ a very different John Wick film. They’ve added three scenes from ‘The Continental’ show.
McShane said, “‘Ballerina’ is very different.” McShane added, “We had these three scenes, and we added another couple of scenes at the Continental.” He attributes his willingness to make suggestions with Winston to the confidence that Stahelski has placed in him throughout the series. “Chad trusts me with knowing my character, so I try to bring a little twist to it each time.”
Directed by Len Wiseman and written by Shay Hatten, Michael Finch, and Emerald Fennell, the movie is the second spin-off in the John Wick series. It’s set between ‘John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum’ (2019) and ‘John Wick: Chapter 4’ (2023).
