Ballerina marks Choi Soo-young’s Hollywood debut, where she takes on the role of Katla Park. The excitement for Ballerina among fans is at an all-time high, and the makers have just dropped fresh character posters featuring Ana de Armas as Eve Macarro and Keanu Reeves reprising his role as John Wick, among others. However, it’s South Korean actress and Girls’ Generation member Choi Soo-young, also known as Sooyoung, who is stealing the spotlight.
Ballerina marks her Hollywood debut, where she plays Katla Park. One of Eve’s first missions in the film is to protect Katla from dangerous enemies. Set during the events of John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum, Ballerina follows Eve, a young woman trained as an assassin at the Ruska Roma Ballet School after her father’s death.
As per IGN, “Katla Park is the daughter of the Ruska Roma’s colleague Il Seong. Eve’s first field mission is to protect Katla Park at the lavish Minus Eleven club." Seeing Sooyoung among the key cast members has left her fans excited.
Along with the makers, the idol also shared her official character poster on her social media and wrote, “Protect her at all costs." While Ballerina will mainly follow Ana de Armas’ character Eve, it will also bring back several familiar faces from the John Wick world. Fans can expect to see Ian McShane as Winston, the owner of the Continental Hotel, late Lance Reddick as Charon, and Anjelica Huston as the Director of the Ruska Roma.
The cast also includes Catalina Sandino Moreno, Gabriel Byrne, Choi Soo-young, David Castaneda, Robert Maaser, Sharon Duncan-Brewster and Norman Reedus. Keanu Reeves will also return as John Wick. Choi Soo-young has been a familiar face in the South Korean entertainment industry for years.
She has impressed viewers with her roles in popular projects like Not Others, If You Wish Upon Me, Run On, and movies such as New Year Blues and Girl Cops. Now, she’s ready to reach a global audience with her Hollywood debut in Ballerina. Her fans can also look forward to seeing her in a new drama titled Second Shot at Love, scheduled to premiere on May 12.
