Keanu Reeves joins the surprising project of this two-time Palme d’Or winning director

A superstar in the casting of Ruben Östlund’s new film

Swedish director Ruben Östlund, 50, is part of the exclusive club of nine award-winning filmmakers two Palme d’Or at the Cannes Film Festival. The first obtained in 2017 for The squareand the second in 2022 for Without filter. So loved by the Croisette, where his cynical and provocative cinema works miracles, and where he will probably return to present his new feature film The entertainment system is inactive.

If this is indeed the plan, it probably won’t be until 2026, when filming began The entertainment system is inactive is currently scheduled for early 2025.

While waiting for the cameras to start rolling, the cast begins to reunite and, according to information from Varietyan American superstar would be in advanced negotiations to join this new satire: Keanu Reeves.

Panic on a long-haul flight

Without knowing the details of this new film, we already know that it will be a new social satire, set during a long-haul flight on which the entertainment system does not work. A situation that will push the flight passengers to the limit, triggering chaos.

The potential presence in the casting of Keanu Reeves is perplexing to the extent that, apart from Woody Harrelson in Without filter – and who will be there too The entertainment system is Down – Ruben Östlund has so far worked with less popular actors and actresses. Giving a place to the action superstar and the “coolest guy in Hollywood” is therefore a very tempting surprise and, given the Swedish director’s taste for provocation and second rate, it is not impossible to consider it Keanu Reeves plays himself…The opportunity for the actor to stand out in the most prestigious auteur cinema, something he had no longer done since then The neon demon in 2016.
