Keanu Reeves

Strange things are afoot behind-the-scenes of ‘Bill & Ted Face the Music’, the much-anticipated third chapter of the ‘Bill & Ted’ saga which began way back in 1989.  Keanu Reeves has undergone a drastic metamorphosis to play the modern-day Ted “Theodore” Logan, now a father of a teenage girl.  And what suits a mature poppa more than a Dad Bod?

Yep, it looks as though after he completed ‘John Wick: Chapter 3’, Reeves quit working out, grew his hair and beard out, and ate whatever he wanted.  Well, Reeves often has long hair, but not like this.  Check out this picture, posted by ET Canada:

 

ET Canada also offered a morsel that might give you a clue about one development in the film:

“In the scene, Reeves and co-star Alex Winter film at a prison alongside other prisoners and a prison robot.”

Following 1989’s ‘Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure’ and 1991’s ‘Bill & Ted’s Bogus Journey’, the stakes are higher than ever for William “Bill” S. Preston Esq. (Winter) and Ted “Theodore” Logan (Reeves).  Yet to fulfill their rock and roll destiny, the now middle-aged best friends set out on a new adventure, when a visitor from the future warns them that only their song can save life as we know it and bring harmony to the universe.  Along the way, they will be helped by their families, old friends, and a few music legends.

Dean Parisot is directing this sequel from a script by Chris Matheson and Ed Solomon, who worked on the original flicks.  Hal Landon Jr. returns as Ted’s father, Chet Logan, while William Sadler, who played Death in ‘Bill & Ted’s Bogus Journey’, is also back.

Erinn Hayes will portray Ted’s wife, Princess Elizabeth, while Brigette Lundy-Paine plays their daughter Billie.  Bill’s wife, Princess Joanna, will be portrayed by Jayma Mays, with Samara Weaving, as their daughter Thea.  Beck Bennett portrays Ted’s brother, Deacon, with Anthony Carrigan as the film’s villain, and Kid Cudi a.k.a. Scott Mescudi in a mystery role.  Jillian Bell will portray the couple’s therapist for both Bill and Ted.  Holland Taylor plays the Great Leader, “the most powerful person in the universe — the center of which is San Dimas, Calif., 700 years in the future,” and Kristen Schaal plays Kelly, a messenger from the future.
