How Ana de Armas & Keanu Reeves Joined ‘Ballerina’
One of the producers ofBallerina, Erica Lee of Thunder Road, previously told MovieWeb how Ana de Armas got involved in the film — and how she helped get Keanu Reeves to take part, as well. “We reached out to her through her agents. She’s a huge fan of the franchise. At that point, frankly, we didn’t even know if Keanu would be in the movie,” said Lee, who added:
“So we went to Ana and, and she loved Len [Wiseman’s] take, and she wanted to be an action star. And then when we talked about getting Keanu into the movie, she’d known Keanu for years and kind of helped to reach out and go, ‘Let’s do this, come on, it’s gonna be fun.’ And so she was definitely helpful in getting Keanu excited about the movie. And Keanu’s a gigantic fan of Ana, so I think he got really excited about Ballerina once Ana came on board.”
