For those of you who can’t go to sleep at night without hearing the prince of monotone himself, Keanu Reeves, might have a chance to finally see him in action once more. Keanu is expected to play the role of Spike in a movie remake of the Japanese animated series Cowboy Bebop.
Thanks to greater than usual logistical issues, an elite team of Old West-style bounty hunters, or cowboys, is needed to keep the peace.
Per the Hollywood Reporter, Reeves is attached to play Spike Siegel, a reformed criminal turned space cowboy and copilot of the Bebop, who, like a character from the actor’s past, is well-versed in kung fu and other combat skills but is toting around quite a few personal demons.
No word yet on who’s in line to play Spike’s copilot, Jet Black, a onetime Inter-Solar System cop with a mechanical arm, but so far we’re liking the whole Firefly-Battlestar Galactica-Bill & Ted vibe.
My honest opinion? Screw Keanu. I want to know who gets to play that really busty chick in the yellow short shorts.
