After killing countless goons and more recently being an angel, what’s next for Keanu Reeves? Getting stuck in a time loop.
Per the Hollywood Reporter, the John Wick star will lead the sci-fi film Shiver. Directed by Deadpool’s Tim Miller, the film reportedly sees Reeves as a smuggler who’s double-crossed by mercenaries in shark-filled Caribbean waters. If that wasn’t bad enough, he’s also caught in a time loop. So it’s up to him to break the cycle and probably die a few times trying to figure out the right way to make that happen.
Sounds cool, if not familiar? That’s by design—THR describes the film as a mix of Edge of Tomorrow and the 2017 film The Shallows, which stranded surfer Blake Lively on an offshore rock with a hostile shark circling nearby. In addition to Reeves and Miller, who previously worked on the Prime Video series Secret Level, the other big name talent is Kingsman director Matthew Vaughn as producer.
Shiver is the latest action movie Keanu Reeves is supposed to headline: he’s spent years trying to make a Constantine sequel happen, and he’s also supposed to be in a movie based on the BRZRKR comic he co-created with Ron Garney and Matt Kindt. He’ll also eventually be back for a fifth John Wick sooner or later, and who knows what else he’s got on his plate.
