Nooooooooooooooo!
If Keanu is not going to be in this film I'm not going to cry ... just be pissed off.
As if losing the Chef project wasn't enough.

"every cloud has a silver lining" ... I have a feeling that Keanu gives this up for something more important (or let's hope that he does)

I'm glad the story will -hopefully- get told on the big screen. It's a beautiful, beautiful script. But it's the second time that Keanu doesn't get to be part of a project he developed from stage 1. And I'm rather angry with the universe right now.

Yes, we'll get to see the movie, just like we'll get to see Chef. But it will be different. :|

yeah. Although unlike Chef, it looks like at least Company Films will be involved in some way; so hopefully Keanu will still get to be part of bringing his story to the screen.

and... well. Maybe without his involvement, more people would be willing to see it. :/ And it's a movie that should be seen.

... which only makes me angrier, with both the universe and the industry.



You know, moments like this, I wish he'd start a project but not mention his name or his company or anything, just keep quiet about it, and when the film is done and distributed and well received and critically acclaimed, he'd just sit in the shadows and smirk that Constantine smirk of his.
But that's just my idea of 'revenge'. Perhaps he got better ones.

You read my mind @LucaM ... and actually this 'silent' strategy worked recently, with John Wick. I am referring to this article: http://whoaisnotme.net/articles/2014_1022_who.htm.

Well, looks like some 'people upstairs' have something against Keanu ... and my laziest guess is jealousy.

Yeah.
I'm not sure if the silent approach would work, though, not just with Keanu but any actor - marketing is a huge part of getting that box office.

true, Ani; but I wasn't talking about box office. I was talking about that validation and recognition that all of us need for our work, be it a 90 million dollars movie or a short story or a power point presentation or. And if he'd get that for something done under 'Alan Smithee'... that would mean something.
His ideas are good, he's got an eye for good stories and a storyteller soul, but it's the second time he had to sell a story so it can get made into a movie. There's a pattern here.
One day we'll find out why.
Or not.
