At this point, you kind of only have to say “Keanu Reeves action movie,” and many of us are on board automatically. But Shiver, the next movie he’s attached to star in, is perhaps especially intriguing for its comparison points: According to The Hollywood Reporter, it’s “described as having tonal shades of Edge of Tomorrow and The Shallows.”
So Keanu Reeves dies a lot and also there are sharks? Well … yes, that’s kind of it.
THR goes on to say, “Plot details are very hazy, but the word on the street is that the story centers on a ne’er-do-well smuggler who finds himself in the middle of a deadly double-cross while on a job in the Caribbean Sea, resulting in him surrounded by bodies, hostile mercenaries and thirsty sharks alike. He next finds himself [in] a deathly time loop and scrambling to break the cycle.”
That’s a lot of finding himself. Also, are the sharks vampires? Why are they thirsty? Bloodthirsty, perhaps? I have questions.
(Side note: This Shiver has nothing to do with the Maggie Stiefvater YA novel Shiver, which is also being made into a movie. It’s important to keep your sharks and your werewolves in separate films. Or is it?)
Reeves recently took a break from all the murders of the John Wick films and starred as an angel in Good Fortune (pictured above). He is still talking about Constantine 2, and therefore still giving us hope on that front.
Shiver is written by Ian Shorr, whose previous credits include the Paramount Plus movie Infinite (which starred the unlikely pair of Mark Wahlberg and Chiwetel Ejiofor) and an episode of the Training Day TV series. Director Tim Miller is best known for Deadpool and Terminator: Dark Fate, but he’s also the creator of Netflix’s animated anthology series Love, Death and Robots.
No word yet on when the thirsty sharks will start circling.[end-mark]
