<b>'Ballerina': The Latest Dance in the Box Office</b>

The recent film 'Ballerina', part of the 'John Wick' franchise, has made its debut at the global box office with a somewhat muted performance. Earning $51 million globally, it has been overshadowed by other blockbuster hits like 'Lilo & Stitch' and 'Mission: Impossible 8' [1][2]. The movie, starring Ana de Armas as an assassin trained in the traditions of the Ruska Roma, opened in over 3,409 theaters across the U.S. and Canada, gathering $25 million domestically [2].

Despite the modest box office start, 'Ballerina' offers a unique blend of action and intrigue, expanding the 'John Wick' universe. The film hit theaters on June 6, 2025, and features significant involvement from Keanu Reeves, who also stars in the franchise [4]. The duo of Keanu Reeves and Ana de Armas has been highlighted in recent interviews, showcasing their dedication to their roles [4].

While 'Ballerina' may not have danced its way to the top of the box office just yet, it is an interesting addition to the thriller genre and the expansive 'John Wick' universe.
