A great story which i can't wait for the acting from Keanu Reeves

"A scientist becomes obsessed with bringing back his family members who died in a traffic accident."
The story is just short but meaningful, i think Keanu Reeves will bring all his emotions into this film. I saw him in The Lake House, John Wick, The Devil's Advocate and i could see that he's a great actor. That is why i can't wait for all of his films which are coming up in this year.
Any information when will this movie be filmed?

Keanu Reeves has never been called nor is a GREAT actor, especially comparatively, but there are some films where he has seemed to believably channel emotion from the personal losses he's endured in his life, such as in John Wick and The Lake House. Replicas' story line is another where he could really personally bring something to the character, and I'm definitely adding it to my Watchlist to keep an eye on.

I think he is a great actor. The only reason I think that people claim that he is not is due to his voice. You can't really hold a guy's voice against him. Watch him with the sound off and with the sub titles on. Then you will see he is actually better than some claim.

This may hit a little close to home for Keanu - what with the death of his partner Jennifer Syme - and could produce a really good performance. Kinda surprised he is attached to the project. Still, should be good.

She was never his partner. He never has ever even mentioned her name in an interview. Even after she was supposedly pregnant with his child, they were never together. Wish you people would stop making a love story where none existed.

And I wish you stop pretending to know him or his relationships or anything else. Everything you write is just hearsay.

And not talk "officially" about somebody does not make him care about that person!

The twist will probably be that Keanu will be the replica while his family are normal people... Would be explain his "wooden acting" haha

This could be a good performance, depending on the director. Keanu often seems, to me, to suppress emotion. In some of his early, small roles he has proven to be a very good actor.

If you watch to the end you will understand why they chose him for the role. I think he was typecast specifically for the end of the movie and no other reason :D
