Keanu Reeves to Blast into Space
Disaster remake The Day the Earth Stood Still will have a new audience to capture this weekend—an otherworldy one. Twentieth Century Fox is broadcasting the film to Alpha Centauri—the nearest star system to Earth—in addition to 3,560 theaters domestically. Variety reports a celestial communications network is using equipment at Cape Canaveral, Florida, to beam the film. Alpha Centauri will not receive the film for four years, giving the filmmakers plenty of time to produce a few sequels on the ground. Keanu Reeves, playing a judgmental alien, comes to Earth to observe humans and their reactions to global warming. Jennifer Connelly and Will Smith’s son, Jaden, also star. Time will tell if Keanu's acting is as wooden in space as it is on screen.
