'I think it's important to keep looking for truth, answers… To keep pushing until you find your truth no matter what,' she told Deadline during the premiere. 'So, take risks and get to the bottom of it.'
In Ballerina, De Armas plays a ballerina-assassin who begins to train in the assassin traditions of the Ruska Roma to avenge her father's death. The film, directed by Len Wiseman and written by Shay Hatten, takes place in the John Wick universe, between the events of John Wick: Chapter 3 — Parabellum and Chapter 4. De Armas' co-stars include Anjelica Huston, Gabriel Byrne, Lance Reddick, Norman Reedus, Ian McShane, and Keanu Reeves.
During the Ballerina premiere, Deadline also asked De Armas about her new film, Deeper, in which she will work alongside Tom Cruise.
'Training, just training, getting ready for what's going to come,' she told us.
Deeper follows an astronaut who encounters a terrifying force while on a deep dive into a never-before-explored trench. Deadline recently reported that Doug Liman is set to direct the undersea supernatural film with Christopher McQuarrie involved with the script.
De Armas also discussed the legacy Ballerina will leave for the next generation of acting-starring women.
De Armas' co-star Gabriel Byrne praised her for her stunt work.

This Is Officially The WORST-Rated Beer In The World
Beers can be as nuanced as a bottle of wine—each crafted with its own unique blend of hops, grains, water, and yeast. Those who prefer hoppier beers might reach for an IPA, while those looking for a more decadent brew might choose an imperial stout. And while people might have different taste buds and preferences when it comes to beer, one thing drinkers can align on is what beers they don't want to drink. The popular review site Beer Advocate keeps an up-to-date list of the all-time worst-rated beers from around the world—and it might shock some to learn that one of the United State's most popular brands tops the list. Budweiser Select 55, clocking in at a low 2.4% ABV, takes the crown no one wants to win as the worst-rated beer. This ranking is determined by averaging user ratings, excluding beers with too few reviews, and continuously updating the list as new data comes in. There appears to be a trend among the list of worst-ranking beers, in that the majority of them are light beers. Following Budweiser Select 55 (which I've never even heard of, btw), comes Natural Light, Miller Extra Light, Keystone Light, and Natural Ice. Budweiser Select 55 has an average rating of 1.65 stars out of 5, while the beers that rank second through fifth worst score 1.77, 1.81, 1.85, and 1.86, respectively. One of the reviews for Budweiser Select 55 stated, "This really is the worst beer ever made." Ouch. But it's not all bad news for Budweiser. The brand's classic Budweiser did rank #63 in terms of popularity. We'll take that! You Might Also Like Insanely Easy Weeknight Dinners To Try This Week 29 Insanely Delicious Vodka Cocktails
