It was on the glittering red carpet at the Oscars in March that Keanu Reeves tossed us a most excellent bit of semi-news about a potential new "Bill and Ted" sequel. "I'm trying, I'm trying," he said.
Was he serious? Just joking in the midst of the overly serious awards season circus? We honestly weren't sure. So when we got a chance to chat with Reeves again — this time at the Toronto Film Festival, where he was promoting "Henry's Crime" — we had to probe further. Is a third "Bill and Ted" flick really in the works? Might Reeves reunite with co-star Alex Winter and writers Chris Matheson and Ed Solomon?
Perhaps. And Reeves is positively giddy about the possibility that it actually could happen.
"We're trying. Alex and I are still friends and we're talking, and we're talking to Chris and Ed," Reeves said. "They're going to try and see if they can write something. To me, I'd love to play the role. I'd love to work with Alex and Chris and Ed again."
"We'll see what they do. If it's a film that can stand up on its own ... and I'm meeting people now, they've shown the film to their kids," he added. "We just seek to entertain, and if that could be something that could be worthwhile, on its own ..."
Whether or not Matheson and Solomon hit on an idea that is worthwhile, of course, is only the first of many questions surrounding the chance that another "Bill and Ted" becomes a reality. But it's worth noting, as well, how darn enthusiastic Reeves is about the project.
During our chat, he popped off joke after joke about "Bill and Ted," mixing his humor with genuine hope ("That would be amazing!" he declared at one point). He veered from one wacky pitch to the next — everything from a 3-D black-and-white sequel to a multi-director feature involving Martin Scorsese, Francis Ford Coppola and Werner Herzog. Will a third "Bill and Ted" happen? Who knows? But it sure is fun to hear Reeves launch into an impression of Herzog describing the project.
"I was just pushed by the idea of this innocence being confronted by the nihilism of the world," he joked. "And I thought that these two clowns could push our perspective of reality and truth to the forefront of meaning and knowledge."
