A rumor that Keanu Reeves was being looked at for a role in The Eternals did the rounds recently, and it looks like there may have been some truth to it - although from the sounds of things, that's not the only MCU project he's being considered for!

While speaking to ComicBook.com at the Spider-Man: Far From Home press junket, Kevin Feige was asked about the rumor, and revealed that they've been trying to get the John Wick actor on board for a while now.

“We talk to him for almost every film we make,” Feige laughed. “I don’t know when, if, or ever he’ll join the MCU, but we very much want to figure out the right way to do it.”

Apparently, Reeves finds himself in a similar position to Far From Home's Jake Gyllenhaal, who was approached by the studio "multiple times" before the right role came his way. Could that be a character in The Eternals for Reeves? Feige wouldn't confirm or deny, but let's hope some upcoming MCU role pique his interest.
