I'm not exactly sure how amidst all the chaos and interviews of the Oscar red carpet last night, only one real bit of movie news was made, and I'm still not convinced it isn’t a joke.

Dodging questions about his geometrically implausible beard, Keanu Reeves spoke to MTV about a possible upcoming project.

MTV: “Let’s greenlight the Bill and Ted sequel right now.”

Reeves: “We’re trying”

MTV: “Really!?”

Reeves: “Sure”

MTV: “I can’t tell if you're joking or not.”

Reeves: “I’m not.”

There you have it folks, Keanu Reeves is not joking about a BILL AND TED sequel. I buy it, I mean come on, with every ‘80s franchise on earth coming back to life, is it that far-fetched to imagine another BILL AND TED movie is in the works? I mean, what the hell is Alex Winter (and Keanu Reeves for that matter) doing these days anyway?

Watch Keanu say it himself below, and see if you can read his face for seriousness.

He's joking. I guarantee you if they did this it would be about their kids somehow.

well lets be clear, 'bill and ted' appeals only to a select audience, so i expect a lot of people to be dismayed by reeves comments. In my opinion there shouldn't be one, what would be the plot, 'ted goes back in time and saves bill's career'? nevertheless, i'd still watch it, the first one was hilarious.

going back to the early 90s Keanu Reeves talked about doing a sequel when himself and Winter were in their 40s,maybethis is the plan.

Honestly guys what would you want a sequel or it get rebooted. I prefer a sequel over a reboot for anything unless its comic movie or james bond.

Sounds most totally radical...
But you can't get better than BOGUS JOURNEY. I actually mean that. It has the best ending in film history : they save the world with their rock! You can't beat that. Ever.

I think he's joking, not that it's cert as his face is always like that, whether he's 'acting' or not.

Saying that though 'Bogus Journey' is the best sequel he's made,(Let's see what repsonse this gets...)

He's joking. Or at least not being too serious about it. He was in a jokey type of mood if you watch some of his other interviews from last night.

than some awful fucking remake with Justin Bieber and Jaden Smith. At least this way, there's like a 50/50 chance it'll suck, a remake will definitely suck.

Alex winter directed the ben 10 movie for cartoon network a couple of years ago. I met him there when I was interning there. He looks pretty much the same.

No way man, The Wyld Stallyns belong back in the late 80s early 90s. I'd rather not see a new bill and ted... well not with Keanu... I feel like he's beyond that now, personally. He didn't really seem serious about it in that video, so I don't buy it yet. Also, didn't he say somewhere that he would never make a sequel to another movie again?

Nah, most likely be another remake with some goofy kids from a Nickelodeon show or something.



Now if he'd said Freaked sequel, I'd be all ears.

I hope this happens, middle aged Bill And Ted sounds amazing. The second movie is so underrated and holds up way better than the first. Despite the Station nonsense.
