Severance creator Dan Erickson reveals how that A-list actor was cast as the Lumon building in Season 2 of the twisty Apple TV+ drama series.

Will Smith's initially rejected of the role of Neo in 1999's The Matrix, but recently hinted at a possible Matrix-related project without Keanu Reeves.

Keanu Reeves has become something of a cult phenomenon, establishing himself as a permanent fixture in the larger world of pop culture. A talented leading man throughout the late ‘80s into the ‘90s, Reeves became one of the most talked-about young actors of his generation.

"In 1997," the post reads, "the Wachowskis offered Will Smith the role of Neo in The Matrix. Smith turned it down. He chose Wild Wild West, believing it was a better fit for him at the time. But the question remains: what would The Matrix have been like with Will Smith as Neo?"

Keanu Reeves surprised everyone by naming his favourite role of all time and it is neither from 'The Matrix' nor other popular projects like 'John Wick'.

Discover how Keanu Reeves, starring as Neo in The Matrix series, earned an unprecedented $156 million, outpacing Hollywood giants like Tom Cruise and Will Smith in single-franchise earnings.

Will Smith teased a new project as he referenced his decision to turn down the role of Neo in “The Matrix,” leading fans to speculate that the venture might be related to the sci-fi franchise.

As Shadow the Hedgehog, malice; as Neo and John Wick, dread; as Johnny Utah, woe; as Ted Logan, frolic — and now, as an anthropomorphic representation of Lumon, Keanu Reeves veers into the buoyantly propagandistic.

You might remember the 1999 Sci-Fi action film The Matrix. Keanu Reeves plays a computer programmer and hacker that goes by the name of "Neo". He's always wondered about the reality of the world around him.
