According to today's rumors, Warner Bros' ultra expensive $230 million film adaptation of famous manga AKIRA is about to get Keanu Reeves in the lead role of Kaneda. This is quite surprising
since many young actors (Keanu is almost 50) were in the run including Justin Timberlake, Michael Fassbender, Chris Pine .... but it seems the studio wants a world wide name for the risky project. The futuristic tale, set in post-nuclear war Manhattan in 2019 where a biker gang member tries to save his best friend Tetsuo who is subjected to a government experiment which unleashes his latent powers, might have James McAvoy or Robert Pattinson in the Tetsuo role. According to rumors, Brad Pitt and Ryan Gosling had turned down the Kaneda role previously.
