If the rumour is true, Keanu could be bringing his John Wick skills into the upcoming movie directed by Chloe Zhao.
The actor will be joining Angelina Jolie, Richard Madden and Kumail Nanjiani in The Eternals that will explore the cosmic side of the MCU. No word has been released yet on what Keanu’s role will be exactly in the upcoming movie.

While negotiations may be underway, Keanu has not yet officially signed on to star in The Eternals but is said to be in the early stages of discussion.
The Eternals is one of Marvel Studios’ more mysterious projects as not much is known about the movie as of yet.
“You’re reaction about not being familiar with the Eternals is perfect,” said producer, Kevin Feige excitedly. “Because most people weren’t familiar with Guardians [of the Galaxy] and believe it or not, there were people that were not familiar with Avengers or with Iron Man. So for us, its finding great stories whether people have heard of them or not and bring them to the big screen in as amazing a ways as we can.”

“Eternals are one group, but we like the idea of introducing an ensemble, doing an ensemble movie from the start, as opposed to building up as we did with the first Avengers,” Kevin said to Collider. “More like Guardians, not tonally, but in terms of introducing a new group of people. Jack Kirby did an immense, amazing epic with Eternals that spans tens of thousands of years, and that’s also something we haven’t really done, which is why that among many other things post-Endgame, we find appealing.”
We think Keanu would be the perfect addition to the MCU! What do you think?
