It seems that Keanu Reeves is making his debut in the Marvel Cinematics Universe earlier than expected. After trying many years the perfect role for John Wick Star is matched. A source revealed that Marvel president Kevin wants Reeves to play Johnny Blaze, a.k.a. Ghost Rider.
It is also said that Marvel wants to introduce Reeves’s character alongside Benedict Cumberbatch in Doctor Strange & the multiverse of Madness, which will hit in theaters in 2021.
The Keanu role has now become an apple of discord for Marvel and DC. DC is trying to persuade Reeves to reprise his role in a new Constantine film and eventually have him star in Justice League Dark.
While on the other hand, Marvel is taking all possible efforts to find a role for Reeves. In interviews, Feige had admitted that he will talk to Reeves when a new project surfaces but has yet to find an ideal match.
Will Reeves cameo in ‘Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness’?
Rumors say Marvel is in talks with Reeves to play Johnny Blaze’s version of Ghost Rider. The studio wants to give Reeves his own standalone movie, but not before introducing him to another project.
An insider claim that Reeves will portray Johnny Balze In Doctor in the Multiverse of Madness. There is no assurance how he will fit into Strange’s storyline. But it is believed that his role will be minimal. Though Marvel is not saying anything about Keanu Reeves in Doctor Stange 2.
Without any official confirmation, we can’t say if the rumor about Reeves is true or not. He has worked on several huge projects in the past. And it would not be the first time that studios would try to grab him.
