SCANDAL: Keanu Reeves FINALLY confirms why he turned down this role
Over the years, Keanu Reeves has made a big name for himself. He has appeared in several different films and has played three iconic characters, ranging from DC's John Constantine to The Matrix's Neo and the beloved mass murderer John Wick. Despite all his success, his image and reputation have not been spared from criticism.
Although he has been a part of several genres throughout his career, many have been critical of his range as an actor, pointing out that all of his characters lack some depth and seem very shallow. Although he has diversified his acting portfolio quite a bit to surpass this, it seems to have followed him relentlessly.
But he continues to have some of the most devoted and passionate fans in Hollywood, and Richard Linklater seems to have the perfect theory as to why that is.
