Evanescence releases music video for 'Fight Like a Girl' directed by Chad Stahelski

In the United States, on July 7, 2025, Evanescence uploaded a new music video for their song 'Fight Like a Girl,' which is featured in the movie From the World of John Wick: Ballerina. The film is now accessible through digital video-on-demand platforms. The music video was directed by Chad Stahelski, a notable filmmaker who has had a significant impact on the John Wick franchise as both a director and producer. Stahelski's involvement in this project underscores his long-standing collaboration with the film series that has captivated audiences since its inception. The music video showcases Evanescence's lead singer, Amy Lee, and guest vocalist K.Flay, who perform as they walk down an empty street. Behind them, the rest of the band is seen performing against a backdrop of flames, adding a dramatic effect to the visual presentation. Earlier versions of the music video included a greater number of clips from the Ballerina movie, but this latest release emphasizes the band's live performance. The film Ballerina, which stars Ana de Armas as Eve Macarro, is about a budding assassin trained in the Ruska Roma school who encounters the iconic character John Wick in her journey for revenge against a cult leader, portrayed by Gabriel Byrne. It further illustrates the connections between music and cinematic storytelling, as Evanescence's music not only serves as an accompaniment to the film but also enhances the emotional depth of the narrative. De Armas noted that the stunt team designed the film's fight scenes based on the skills she honed during her training for the role, which has drawn attention and acclaim for its action sequences. UPI has commended the film, especially highlighting a unique flamethrower battle as one of its standout moments. Since its theatrical release on June 6, 2025, the film has been met with positive reviews, signaling its successful integration into the John Wick franchise. No announcements have been made regarding the release of DVD, Blu-ray, or 4K UHD versions of the film yet, leaving fans eager for news. This release of the music video adds another layer to the ongoing popularity and cultural significance of both the band and the film series, illustrating how music and cinema intersect to create compelling narratives.
