In the highly anticipated BRZRKR movie, set for release in 2026, Keanu Reeves is taking on more than just the lead role—he’s diving deep into the project as a creator, director, and visionary. Known for his iconic roles in franchises like John Wick and Constantine, Reeves is now focused on bringing his passion project, the BRZRKR comic series, to life in a live-action adaptation. Announced as a Netflix exclusive, this film is shaping up to be one of the most exciting releases in years.

BRZRKR, co-created by Reeves, tells the story of an immortal warrior named B who has been locked in a relentless battle for over 80,000 years. As a demigod cursed with an insatiable thirst for violence, B struggles with the madness that comes with his endless existence. After centuries of wandering, he finds a new purpose working for the U.S. government, taking on the most dangerous missions. However, B’s ultimate goal isn’t patriotism—he’s on a quest to uncover the truth behind his existence and find a way to end his eternal torment.

Keanu Reeves has expressed a strong desire to direct the film and choreograph the intense fight scenes himself, even going so far as to fund the stunt team out of his own pocket. With the first draft of the script already in hand, the project is in pre-production, awaiting the final green light from Netflix. Reeves’ close friend, Chad Stahelski, the creator of John Wick, has offered advice on translating the comic’s intense action to the screen, ensuring that the film will deliver the same kind of gripping, high-octane excitement that fans expect.

The BRZRKR comic series, which debuted in 2021, has been a massive success, selling over 615,000 copies and earning critical acclaim. With Reeves at the helm, both as star and potential director, BRZRKR has all the makings of a blockbuster hit. Alongside the live-action movie, an anime series is also in development, with Reeves voicing the lead character, B, expanding the universe even further.

As BRZRKR gears up for its 2026 release, fans can expect an epic, action-packed saga that could easily become the next big franchise for Netflix. Stay tuned for more updates as the project continues to unfold.
