Keanu Reeves is really back on big screen after his directorial debut movie "Man of Tai Chi" and the Japanese-American fantasy action film "47 Ronin". We will see him again in another action movie "John Wick" when the movie hits the theaters this coming October 24, as announced by Lionsgate just recently.
"John Wick" focuses on a retired hitman, played by Keanu Reeves, who is pursued by an old friend. The conflict starts when John Wick's 1979 Ford Mustang was stolen and the dog given to him by his wife got killed. This makes his deadly instinct stirs up once again.
Reeves stars with American Award-nominated actor Willem Dafoe, "Coyote Ugly" actress Bridget Moynahan, and "Harry Potter" star Jason Isaacs. Dafoe has joined the cast last September 12 to play the antagonist role in the film. Michael Nygvist, Dean Winters, Alfie Allen, and Adrianne Palicki also join "The Matrix" star in the action-thriller film helmed by "Jupiter Ascending" director David Leitch and "The Hunger Games: Catching Fire" director Chad Stahelski.
The film shooting began on October 14, 2013, which is just 5 months later Keanu Reeves joined the production. Most of the scenes were set in New York City.
The "Constantine" star is also busy in a courtroom drama "The Whole Truth" and psycho-thriller film "Knock Knock".
Reeves will play as a lawyer in "The Whole Truth" to defend a teenager who allegedly murdered his wealthy father. Last June, he attended a real-life courtroom trial in Jefferson Parish Courthouse to prepare himself for the film. He is serious with his role, isn't he?
In Eli Roth's "Knock Knock", Reeves portrays a role of a happily married man who is left alone in a weekend but things get messed up when two girls suddenly show up in their house.
So, his fans have three movies to watch out for to support Keanu Reeves in his several films. The sci-fi film "Passengers" that he will also star is still in writing as Jon Spaihts said in an interview, with transcripts published at soapboxscience, a community guest blog from nature.com. However, we still don't know who will fill in the female lead slot.
