Many fans were disappointed to find out that Keanu Reeves had turned down the role of Yon-Rogg in “Captain Marvel” to focus on another passion project – “John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum”.
All hope is not lost. It seems that Marvel Studios is very keen on casting Reeves in the upcoming superhero movie, “The Eternals”.
There is no official confirmation just yet as negotiations are currently underway. We’re guessing that it’ll only be a matter of time before we get the announcement from either Reeves or Marvel CEO Kevin Feige. Some of you may remember that the action star previously expressed interest in playing Wolverine.
There’s no doubt that Feige and his team in Marvel are aiming high by trying to bring in top A-list talent from Hollywood. Angelina Jolie is reportedly playing Sersei while Richard Madden is in talks to possibly portray Ikaris. Kumail Nanjiani is also in the mix.
“The Eternals” is shaping up to be one of the biggest films in Phase 4. Production for the Chloe Zhao-directed film is expected to take place in Atlanta this August.
Which role do you think Reeves might be up for?
