With his striking good looks and mesmerizing on-screen presence, Keanu Reeves portrays an impressive array of characters during his decades-long career that has left an indelible mark on cinema. The actor shot to stardom with his role as Ted “Theodore” Logan in the beloved ‘Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure’ franchise. His infectious charisma and comedic timing in the film series made him a global sensation. He then stepped into the iconic role of the cyberpunk hero Neo in ‘The Matrix’ film series, once again proving his acting prowess.
Reeves continued to captivate the audience with his portrayal of the titular character in the ‘John Wick’ films. With his intense dedication to martial arts training to prepare for the role, the star redefined the action genre. Yet, Reeves’ talent isn’t limited to action and comedy as he also showcases his dramatic depth in films like ‘The Devil’s Advocate,’ ‘A Scanner Darkly,’ and ‘Replicas.’ With such an impressive filmography, the actor’s new projects are bound to generate immense curiosity among audiences.
1. Good Fortune (October 17, 2025)
Reeves stars alongside Seth Rogen (‘The Interview’ and ‘This Is the End’) in ‘Good Fortune,’ a Lionsgate comedy written and directed by Aziz Ansari. The cast also includes Ansari, Keke Palmer, Seth Rogen, Sandra Oh, and Stephen McKinley Henderson. The plot centers on a down-on-his-luck guy (Ansari) working various jobs. He’s called by his friend (Rogen), who lives in the Hollywood Hills, to do some chores for him, like putting on a disco floor and fixing the pool heater. Keanu Reeves’ “valley” angel swaps Rogen’s rich guy situation with Ansari, so the latter has the former’s life. The film has completed post-production and is slated for release on October 17, 2025. You can watch the trailer here.
2. The Entertainment System Is Down (2026)

The cast also includes Tobias Menzies, Connor Swindells, Daniel Webber, and Lindsay Duncan. The social satire revolves around a group of people on a 17-hour flight and their boredom and subsequent interactions after the entertainment system in the plane goes down. Talking to Variety about the film, Östlund stated that the film is “a study of how human beings interact in this little laboratory that is a plane” and “will look at how modern human beings are wrecked under these circumstances.” The project is currently in its post-production phase. FYI- The makers bought a real Boeing 747 (retired) for the film. It will be released in France on December 20, 2025. A US release date is awaited although we can expect to arrive in early 2026.

‘Outcome,’ an Apple Studios production, is a dark comedy film that follows Reef, a failing Hollywood star who is forced to confront his inner demons and seek redemption when he is blackmailed with a mysterious video clip from his past. The film is helmed by Jonah Hill, who previously directed the coming-of-age film ‘Mid90s’ and the Netflix documentary ‘Stutz.’ Hill also stars in the film along with Matt Bomer, Cameron Diaz, Kaia Gerber, Laverne Cox, and David Spade. The movie, written by Hill and Ezra Woods, has completed the post-production stage. Details about the release are awaited.
4. Untitled Romantic Thriller Keanu Reeves/Sandra Bullock Amazon MGM Studios Project (TBA)
Amazon is working on a romantic thriller movie, with Reeves and Sandra Bullock set to star. Noah Oppenheim wrote the script, though the plot is undisclosed. The movie reunites Reeves, Bullock, and producer Mark Gordon after their 1994 hit film, ‘Speed.’ The project has reached its pre-production phase, and more details are expected to be announced in the upcoming months. The chemistry between Reeves and Bullock is legendary, and we cannot wait to experience it again on the big screen.
5. John Wick – The Impossible Task (TBA)
A prequel anime film to the ‘John Wick’ movies is in the pipeline. It will finally tell the story of Wick’s legendary “Impossible Task,” one that has been referenced in the movies, which established his dread as the one “you send to kill the boogeyman.” The task involved the killing of all of his rivals in one night, which set Wick free from his obligation to the High Table and earned him the right to be with the love of his life, Helen. The anime film will feature stylized action sequences as expected by the mature fans of the franchise. Shannon Tindle will direct, with the story penned by Vanessa Taylor. Thunder Road Pictures and 87Eleven Entertainment are producing, while Lionsgate is in charge of distribution. Reeves will voice Wick. The rest of the voice cast remains under wraps for now. More details about this interesting project are awaited.
6. John Wick: Chapter 5 (TBA)
‘John Wick: Chapter 5’ marks the next installment of the blockbuster action thriller franchise. The neo-noir film was confirmed to be in development by Joe Drake, the President of the Lionsgate Motion Picture, in May 2023. “What is official is that, as you know, Ballerina is the first spin-off that comes out next year. We’re in development on three others, including [‘John Wick: Chapter 5’] and including the television series, ‘The Continental,’ which will be airing soon,” the producer said at the time.
“We’re building out the world and when that ‘5’ movie comes, it will be organic — will be organically grown out of how we’re starting to tell those stories. But you can rely on a regular cadence of John Wick,” Drake added. However, in August 2023, Chad Stahelski, the director of the first four films, revealed that he still had to work out the script of the fifth one. The director stated in a podcast that while he and Reeves are eager to return to the franchise, they need to figure out a story first. So, the film is in the scripting stage, and its release date remains unconfirmed. However, we can expect Ian McShane and Laurence Fishburne to reprise their roles.
7. BRZRKR (TBA)
Netflix is developing a live-action film and an anime series based on the ‘BRZRKR’ comic book series by Reeves and Matt Kindt. The comics revolve around an immortal warrior named Berzerker, who fights his way through the ages. Reeves is set to produce and feature in both projects, with Mattson Tomlin serving as the writer of the film adaptation. The anime series will be a spin-off in which Reeves will lend his voice to his film character. The actor previously also expressed his interest in directing the live-action film. Both the film and the anime series are currently in production, and their release dates have not been announced yet.
8. Constantine 2 (TBA)
‘Constantine 2,’ a sequel to the 2005 superhero film ‘Constantine,’ is currently in the works with Reeves and director Francis Lawrence reuniting for the project. The actor reprises his role as the supernatural exorcist and demonologist John Constantine, based on the eponymous DC Comics character. Peter Stormare is expected to return as Lucifer. The plot of the horror film has not been disclosed yet but the writer Akiva Goldsman (‘A Beautiful Mind’ and ‘The Crowded Room’) confirmed in July 2023 that he hadn’t started “typing” the script yet even though he had a story in mind.
Goldsman also drew a parallel between Reeves and his character in an interview with Deadline: “The character is very much Keanu and the way he and Francis saw the world of good and evil, and the wonderful and authentic noir where there is a world behind the world of good and evil coexisting with our world right up close. Beyond that, we are still discovering it as I am writing the script.” Reeves recently pitched the project to DC and it waits to be seen how things turn out for the highly-anticipated sequel.
