Keanu Reeves is returning to the world of science fiction, and this time he is collaborating with Dead Pool director Tim Miller for a new original film titled Thrill.

Reeves has a long history of swashbuckling in science fiction, from The Matrix series a Johnny Mnemonic, Chain reaction, The day the Earth stoppedAND Replies. But Thrill it looks like it will lead him into a whole new kind of chaos.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Thrill will be directed by Miller from a screenplay by Ian Shorrwith Kingsman Creator Matthew Vaughn produce alongside Aaron Ryder.
