This is the John Wick spinoff, originally slated for 2023 and pushed back to 2024. Same writer as John Wick 3 and 4, we'll see if the Underworld director can show off Ana de Armas' assets as well as he did Kate Beckinsale's.

Ah yes another 100 pound woman easily tossing around and besting men twice her size in hand to hand combat.

I swear that when she said " They killed my father...." I immediately heard in my head " and my cat"......
Or maybe they could have kidnapped her cat? Dialogue would have been lulz, -"Don't you dare hurt my pussy!"

I'm not saying you're wrong, but they at least pay lip service to it, saying she'll always be weaker, always smaller, etc. She'll have to cheat if she wants to win. At least in the trailer it sort of looked like she was doing that. When she was hanging on the guys arm she didn't do shit until she snapped it, or maybe it cut on the glass? Not sure and didn't rewatch. Yeah, she "Black Widow" threw the guy, but that was after kicking him in the balls I believe. So who knows, but at least they mentioned that she shouldn't be kicking every dude's ass, which is far more than we get in any other girl boss movie.

3 months of reshoots is a new movie. i'll just wait for streaming on this one I think, nothing worse than going to theaters for a franchise you like and being pretty disappointed (furiosa, thor 4)

this also has delayed filming for the HIghlander reboot starring Henry Cavill, who took on the lead role in Voltron to be busy in the downtime

This is the same thought I had. "At least they addressed it". Pretty much no movie does. So I'm willing to give it a watch when it comes out on Prime or whatnot.

An unasked for spinoff originally involving nearly no one from the original films, half+ of which had to be remade?

Can't pay for worse advertising than that.

The weirdest part is that John Wick 4 introduced multiple characters who would have been great in spinoff movies. Caine, Mr. Nobody, the Samurai's daughter, hell maybe even the chick he visits in Germany who leads her own assassin sect. No idea why they had to introduce an entirely new character when they had so many interesting options already.
