Keanu Reeves may have indirectly offered himself as the next Cape Crusader should the movie "Batman vs. Superman: Dawn of Justice" make good at the tills on March 25, 2016 and necessitates a sequel. And that is, if Ben Affleck would no longer agree to don The Dark Knight's uniform in the still hypothetical sequel.
In an interview with Moviefone last week, a few days before his latest film "John Wick" hit the theaters this past weekend, Reeves said he missed playing the part of a superhero in his film career.
"I always wanted to play Wolverine. But I didn't get that. And they have a great Wolverine now. I always wanted to play The Dark Knight. But I didn't get that one. They've had some great Batmans. So now I'm just enjoying them as an audience," explains the 50-year-old actor.
Reeves has had a string of box office hits under his belt in his remarkable Hollywood career. But his biggest claim to movie fame is "The Matrix" trilogy, which went on to become the most successful action franchises in Hollywood history, details the Inquisitr.
The successful superhero franchises Batman or Wolverine could have catapulted Reeves' career to even more glorious heights no doubt.
But for now, the actor is content striving to build yet another successful movie franchise that has marks all his own. Inquisitr thinks Reeves may have something with the next instalment to the upcoming "Bill and Ted" movie.
"John Wick" made good at the box office during its first weekend, the Inquisitr noted.
