Time of India13-06-2025

Ballerina on OTT: Ballerina, starring Ana de Armas, is out in theatres in India. The film hit the screens on June 13 much to the delight of her fans. The film is set in the same universe as Keanu Reeves' John Wick and promises to be a treat for those fond of action thrillers. The film is currently playing exclusively in theatres, which means it is not available on any OTT platform. It will, however, eventually be available for streaming on either Netflix or Prime Video.
Ballerina may premiere on OTT later this year
Ballerina, a sidequel to John Wick 3 and the latest release from Lionsgate, will land on an OTT platform after its theatrical run. Den of Thieves 2, another Lionsgate film, started streaming on Netflix two and a half months after arriving in theatres. Given this, one can expect Ballerina to be available in late August.
However, there is no guarantee that it will be available on Netflix. According to Variety, Prime Video got the streaming rights to a 'package' of 2025 films. Ballerina might premiere on the platform sometime this year if it is part of the deal.
What's Ballerina about?
Ballerina is an action thriller helmed by Len Wiseman. It traces the rise and life of an assassin and is a sidequel to John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum. It features Ana de Armas in the lead with Gabriel Byrne, Norman Reedus, Keanu Reeves, and the late Lance Reddick in key roles.
