Will Chris Evans and Ana de Armas' Ghosted be released in April?
In a conversation with Deadline, Ghosted director Dexter Fletcher hinted that the upcoming film could be released sooner than expected.
He said:
"Production is well-wrapped. I’m just putting the finishing touches to it now. It’ll be ready for April. I mean, I don’t know if I’m even allowed to say that but I’ve said it."
He continued:
"People should be standing by their TVs and their Apple boxes for April. They've got a good time coming"
Apple TV+ will stream the movie. Scarlett Johansson and Chris Evans were originally going to reunite in the movie as their characters from The Avengers. Unfortunately, the actress had to withdraw from the project, and De Armas was cast in her place. Evans and De Armas previously starred in Knives Out and The Gray Man.
Both actors are not just leading the film but also serving as executive producers. Ana de Armas is also set to appear in John Wick spin-off Ballerina opposite Keanu Reeves. The movie also features Norman Reedus and is packed with fast-paced action like the John Wick movies.
She recently spoke about Ballerina on The Tonight Show. She said:
"We still have one more month to go. And I'm in pain. You know, my body, my back, everything hurts. I'm complaining, I'm sore, I'm bruised."
He then proceeded to compliment Keanu Reeves by saying:
"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. And I'm like – I can't complain anymore. Because he is doing it! He truly is the best."
