00:00This movie is action-packed. How did it test your limits as a performer?
00:04Every day tested my limits. It's just, you know, just endurance and the level of discipline and
00:11commitment and focus that you have to have to take on a movie like this is something I had
00:16never done before and especially for a long period of time. It was not just like training
00:21for a few weeks and just like getting it done. It was just like months and months of preparation.
00:28What was it like training and filming with Keanu? Did he give you any advice
00:33stepping into this world? You see? He's hilarious. I love him. His energy was amazing and this is our
00:41third movie together so it was really special to get back on set and especially with this character
00:47John Wick and it was very iconic to just be on set the day he arrived and the whole crew went quiet.
00:53It was, you know, really, really beautiful. Full circle.
00:58And do you see this as the start of a ballerina franchise? Are you ready for Ballerina 2?
01:02I am ready. I am ready. I really hope so. I love the character and I think, you know,
01:07we can go anywhere from where we left it. You know, it's really cool. I really like this character
01:14and the story and the universe and everything that Keanu and Chad created with the John Wick films
01:20and now to be a part of it is just really, it's really special. Yeah.
