"We've been in Prague filming for four months. We still have one more month to go," the actress reveals (via ActioNewz.com). "And I’m in pain. You know, my body, my back, everything hurts. I’m complaining, I’m sore, I’m bruised. Bond was fifteen minutes. This is a whole movie, another level." "But the other day, Keanu and I were rehearsing our very difficult stunt scene, and this man is just rolling and throwing me and doing crazy stunts," de Armas continues in the video below. "And I’m like - I can’t complain anymore. Because he is doing it! He truly is the best." comicbookmovie.com/action/john_wick/ballerina-star-ana-de-armas-teases-badass-team-up-with-keanu-reeves-john-wick-in-upcoming-spin-off-a198704#gs.mlraf9

Writer Shay Hatten reveals how the spinoff had been built up from the events of Chapter 3. The writer further hinted that with the spinoff focused on Ana de Armas' character Rooney, a different perspective will help unpack Wick's origin story:
"Ballerina has just been a completely fascinating journey for me overall because it started as a spec that was not related to the John Wick movies six years ago. And then just kind of got brought in and then Chad was kind enough to let us kind of set it up in three by showing the ballet theater. And by nature of that, it kind of teed up this story really well. But it's really cool because that story [wasn't] attached to the John Wick universe; it was set in a different part of the world."
The writer goes on to reveal that shared roots for Wick and Rooney present a chance to better understand Baba Yaga, saying:
The original script was set [in the] Swiss Alps, which is territory that the John Wick movies have not touched. So, I think in a great way, it meant that we could kind of stick to the original story of that script from Ballerina without stepping on the toes of John Wick. But also it's a character who we know went to the same ballet academy as John. I think in Ballerina you'll get to see some of the hints of what John experienced during his origins in that place, but through the eyes of a different character. It still solves some of the answers of Wick, just through the eyes of a new character.

The writer discusses Keanu Reeves' role in the movie.
“We got him to be in it for a good chunk. He's a real character, and it's not just kind of a one-piece cameo. He's got... Well, I shouldn't say too much, but he's in the movie in a way that I think people are going to be really excited by. And it was cool because it really was... the only reason we set it between three and four was because it felt like there was kind of a cool window of time for John there, because at the end of the third movie, he's been shot off the roof. He's really kind of beaten up, and then he recuperates in the Bowery King's basement.”
