The Witcher: Blood Origin director Vicky Jewson has directed the completed feature about a troupe of ballerinas who find themselves fighting for survival as they attempt to escape from a remote inn after their bus breaks down on the way to a dance competition.

Lana Condor (To All the Boys franchise), Millicent Simmonds (A Quiet Place), Iris Apatow (The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping), Maddie Ziegler (West Side Story), Avantika (Senior Year), Uma Thurman (Kill Bill franchise) and Michael Culkin (The Nest) star.

This IS unusual.

That almost sounds like the plot of a failed attempt by Aaron Spelling to do something similar back in the 80's , a Charlie's Angels-esque movie featuring undercover female government agents posing as the owners of a fitness club fighting crime.

When i saw the title, i thought this was a sequel to the John Wick spinoff Ballerina. I am guessing it probably is not?

Naming it Ballerina Overdrive sounds like something filmed over one weekend in an abandoned warehouse starring Cynthia Rothrock, Kristanna Loken and Brigitte Nielsen.
