Why Keanu Reeves is Ultimately Making Sci-Fi Movies Again?

The return of Keanu Reeves to the genre of sci-fi movies has delighted the fandom in every possible way who have welcomed his inevitable success in the specialized field. On the other hand, if we look back at the actor’s journey, it cant be credited to the particular genre who has experienced multiple categories. To begin with, his role as Theodore “Ted” Logan in the Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure has earned him a different milestone long back in 1989. Then, his character of Neo in The Matrix after 10 years marked the advent of a new beginning.

Welcoming the return

Following his portrayal of Klaatu in the remake of The Day the Earth Stood Still(2008), Reeves took a major break of ten years in the sci-fi genre. Warner Bros. studios decided to cast the star in his signature role at a time when his action movie career was soaring high above benchmarks and the outcome flourished the production of John Wick series.

Cut to that time, he abstained from big-budget films and rather focused on smaller ones like The Private Lives of Pippa Lee and The Neon Demon. With the due course, Reeves carved his directing debut in the martial arts movie, Man of Tai Chi(2013).
