Ethan Simmie joins Mark Stoeckinger, a three-time Oscar nominee and key contributor to the John Wick universe as a Supervising Sound Editor, who has crafted an electrifying soundscape for Ballerina, elevating its pulse-pounding action and gritty underworld atmosphere. Set during the events of John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum, the film follows Eve Macarro (Ana de Armas) as she trains in the Ruska Roma’s assassin traditions and seeks vengeance. He discussed the "precision violence" of the sound design—honed through work on all four John Wick films and The Continental—bringing every gunshot, fight, and tense moment to life with unparalleled intensity.
