JohnWick 5

Fans are eagerly awaiting the next installment in the John Wick franchise after John Wick: Chapter 4, which is coming in March 2023. Despite everything that happens at the end of that film, Joe Drake, president of Lionsgate Motion Picture Group, says ideas for the next installment are being worked on. In an interview with Total Film, Keanu said: “The only reason we got the chance to make these movies is because people liked what we did. So I think we’ll have to wait and see how audiences react to it. Hopefully they’ll like it.”

Meanwhile, a spin-off film titled Ballerina is in the works set in the John Wick universe. Ana de Armas will play the lead role.

Sonic the Hedgehog 3

Keanu is part of the third installment in the Sonic the Hedgehog series, which will be his next release. The film, directed by Jeff Fowler and starring Ben Schwartz, Colleen O’Shaughnessey and Idris Elba, is scheduled to hit theaters in December.

The entertainment system has failed

Keanu will star in writer-director Ruben Östlund’s next film for A24, titled The Entertainment System is Down. The director is best known for his recent satirical comedies The Square (2017) and Triangle of Sadness (2022), both of which won top prizes at the Cannes Film Festival. Billed as a black comedy, the film also stars Joel Edgerton, Kirsten Dunst, Woody Harrelson and Nicholas Braun.

BRZRKR Live action

Keanu is involved in the live-action adaptation of BRZRKR, a comic book series originally co-written by Reeves and Matt Kindt. “We’re working with Netflix, who are very cool. They’re letting us do an R-rated story, which is cool. My goal or my hope is not to do a movie version of the comic so that they have things in common, definitely the main character and their kind of rule set, but that we can take it to other places as well. We’re talking to a few different animation companies and trying to figure that out. And I hope to be inspired and influenced,” he told Collider back in 2021.

Rally car

Rally Car has been in production limbo for several years. The film was first mentioned in 2017, but there has been no news on cast or crew since then. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the film “tells the story of a NASCAR driver who revives his career by taking part in an international race through China.”

More about Keanu’s book

In addition to being involved in so many projects, Keanu has also written a book called The Book of Elsewhere, which was released earlier this year in July. Co-written with science fiction author China Miéville, it is the first novel set in the BRZRKR universe developed by the actor.

In an interview with The New York Times, Keanu spoke about the experience of creating the book and shared his thoughts on mortality. “Maybe I don’t understand the violence of the world. I don’t understand that we all know we’re going to die, and that we kill each other over things that, looking back, maybe aren’t that important. Maybe I wonder about the world, you know, how we got here, who we are.”

Keanu also owns a motorcycle company called Arch. In addition, the actor owns a publishing company, X Artists’ Books, with his partner Alexandra Grant. Together they published the adult picture book “Ode to Happiness” in 2011 and “Shadows” in 2016.
