Of John Wick’s world: dancerThe launch was delayed a year because Lionsgate wanted to add scenes that originally cut off the script.
Talking to Techradar, Ballerina The director Len Wiseman confirmed that the additional photography was the main reason behind the delayed release of the film. John Wick’s film was due to Earth in theaters in June 2024, but his release was delayed to improve his narrative flow and based on action.
Given the negative connotations that surround the word ‘reshoots’ within the entertainment industry, BallerinaThe delay could give the impression that it was impossible to see in its original form. After all, the incorporation of new scenes, those filmed after the main photography has wrapped, suggests that a film is not up to it.

“Once we were joining the movie, the study [Lionsgate] I wanted to add more scenes that we had cut off the script, “Wiseman told me when I asked about the reverse of the action thriller.
“I have been part of movies in which that has not happened, so every time you listen to additional shootings, there is talk negatively. But, this was an emotion for me because many things we originally wanted to do, we did not have the time or programming [to include them].
“Then, the study really supported us to return to those sequences, build them and then add them again. That was really incredible to me and for all associates with this movie.”
