It looks like director Chad Stahelski (John Wick 1, 2, 3 & 4) had to reshoot most of the Ballerina (John Wick 3.5) without the original director, Len Wiseman, present.
This is more than a reshoot, as filming lasted 2 to 3 months!
Ouch.
@UKFilmNerd
This might have less to do with the quality of the film so far, and more with the studio getting nervous about how much money they've lost on all of their films recently.
@UKFilmNerd hmm… should Wiseman even be credited as the director in this scenario?
I’ve enjoyed Wiseman‘s work, but if the reshoots were that extensive, it sounds like he didn’t have a compelling vision for the film. It doesn’t look like he’s done anything since 2019, but that isn’t saying a whole lot.
