Podcast appearances and mentions of Keanu Reeves

Dicaprio dans Titanic, Harrison Ford dans Star Wars, Sigourney Weaver dans Alien, Keanu Reeves dans Matrix : ce sont tous des acteurs et actrices iconiques, dans des rôles iconiques, et pour des films iconiques. Il y a mille exemples de celles et ceux qui ont accepté un rôle qui les a rendus célèbre. Et puis, il y a les autres. Ceux qui ont loupé l'opportunité de leur vie. Le cas le plus connu est sans doute celui de Daniel Auteuil. Pour cause d'emploi du temps chargé, il refuse en 2011 le rôle de Philippe dans Intouchables aux côtés d'Omar Sy. Le rôle sera finalement interprété par François Cluzet et le film deviendra l'un des plus gros cartons du cinéma français. Et ce n'est pas la première fois qu'Auteuil passe à côté d'un carton événementiel. Pourquoi ces acteurs et actrices sont-ils passés à côté de ces rôles ? Qui sont-ils en France, et aux Etats-Unis ? Écoutez la suite dans cet épisode de "Maintenant vous savez - Culture". Un podcast Bababam Originals, écrit et réalisé par Jonathan Aupart. Première diffusion : 24 octobre 2022 À écouter aussi : Quels sont les tableaux classiques les plus pornographiques ? Qu'est-ce que le tourisme de ghetto ?

ARCH co-founder Gard Hollinger doesn't want to be referred to as an “engineer” or a “designer” out of respect for those in the field who have a formal degree. But whether he likes it not, Hollinger is a bit of both. He's also actor Keanu Reeves' partner in ARCH Motorcycle, and the pair, along with their race team, recently completed their first year in the Mission Super Hooligan National Championship. They did so in style, with Corey Alexander racing the ARCH 2S-R to two fourth-place finishes in the season finale at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course. We chatted with Hollinger prior to the weekend's action at Mid-Ohio to talk all things ARCH, the difficulty of jumping in the deep end with a new bike and team, and much more on this week's episode of Off Track With Carruthers And Bice.Support the show

Kan Klovn stadig fungere efter 10 sæsoner, eller burde serien være stoppet for længst?I dette afsnit af Betacritic samler Jacob Ege Hinchely og Rikke Collin trådene i deres sidste regulære afsnit og giver en skarp anmeldelse af dokumentaren Wick is Pain og de første seks afsnit af Klovn sæson 10. Diskussionen bliver både passioneret og nostalgisk, for Klovn har altid været kimen i deres venskab, og derfor føles denne gennemgang som en bittersød cirkellukning.De to værter starter med Wick is Pain, en dokumentar om Keanu Reeves' ekstreme træningsregime og transformation til rollen som John Wick i den ikoniske actionserie. Dokumentaren viser, hvordan Reeves' dedikation, disciplin og fysiske smerte har været med til at gøre John Wick til et moderne actionfænomen, og Jacob og Rikke diskuterer, hvordan filmen både fungerer som hyldest og kritisk blik på, hvor langt en skuespiller skal gå for at tilfredsstille en franchise. De kobler også diskussionen til instruktørerne Chad Stahelski (John Wick, John Wick: Chapter 4) og David Leitch (Atomic Blonde, Bullet Train), og hvordan de har redefineret actionfilm de seneste ti år.Herefter vender de blikket mod Klovn sæson 10 (inklusiv nogle spoilere) og reflekterer over, hvorfor serien ifølge dem er kørt af sporet. Hvor Klovn engang havde småborgerlig charme og satirisk bid, oplever de nu sløje dialoger, continuity-fejl, manglende relevans og et univers, der minder mere om sci-fi end hverdagens pinligheder. Politiken har givet sæsonen 5 ud af 6 stjerner, men Jacob og Rikke er lodret uenige. Hvor mange mener, at serien stadig er selvironisk, hævder de tværtimod, at Klovn i dag mestendels sparker nedad i stedet for at ramme samfundssatiren opad. Samtidig reflekterer de over deres eget forhold til serien og hvordan Frank Hvam (Langt fra Las Vegas, Alle for to) og Casper Christensen (Langt fra Las Vegas, Danish Dynamite) har formet både dansk humor og deres egen venskabshistorie. Diskussionen bevæger sig fra nostalgi og kærlighed til de tidlige sæsoner til frustration over, at de senere år mangler både originalitet og instruktørvariation.Tusind tak fordi du lytter med.

In this episode of For The Dads with Will Compton, hosts Will and Sherm dive into the importance of date nights, weekend plans (shoutout Baylor/Auburn), and swap kids’ entertainment recommendations—all while keeping it real with laughs, stories, and raw dad energy. The episode kicks off with PT6 community shoutouts that bring both heart and humor, including: The nickname Willy One Shelf catching fire amongst the PT6ers. Sherm’s battle with gravity as he shows off the new For The Dads Oxford Pennant (and teases new merch). The introduction of the podcast’s newest team member. Sherm also gets vulnerable about dad-loss as his wife heads out of town for the week, leaving him solo at home. (We’re all devastated for him, trust us). Other highlights include: A can’t-miss call-in from a general contractor who just can’t catch a break. Sherm closing the show with a gut-wrenching Keanu Reeves monologue that leaves the boys in tears.

On this episode, Jason G and I review 'Ballerina', a spinoff set in the 'John Wick' universe between chapters three and four. We praise the film's action, calling it some of the best in the series, with standout scenes, such as a flamethrower sequence. I mention struggling to fully buy Ana de Armas as an action star, while Jason suggests the director's style may emphasize looks over grit. We also note the inclusion of Lance Reddick's character, filmed before his passing, and appreciate how the action feels intense but more grounded compared to other over-the-top set pieces in this universe. We give the movie an overall rating of 7 to 7.8 out of 10. The conversation concludes with thoughts on the box office and franchise. Despite a $90 million budget, the film made about $132 million worldwide, which may not cover total costs. However, it is performing well on VOD platforms. Lionsgate has not confirmed a 'Ballerina' sequel, but 'John Wick 5' is in development with Keanu Reeves returning.  Thoughts? Comments?

I asked the BIT Crew to nominate their favorite episodes for a special August replay while we are on hiatus.  I selected one of Thea's picks because it went back to season one - when we were all baby holers. She says, "Googlie Wooglie I like a lot because of Sensei Ken, the fun game with cool words, and just love Geoff's Keanu Reeves impersonation, and Keanu Reeves as Abraham Lincoln."   Episode Five has what I consider our best ending. We all break each other—even Billy Merritt. I dare you not to laugh. We'll be back on September 13th with a brand new hole!   ~~ In rabbitHOLE's fifth episode, the BIT CREW educates listeners about some critical issues, including: Googlie Wooglie Mc Dojo Grammar Police  Konrad takes a deep dive into the origins of the term GOOGOL (a one with a hundred zeroes). He starts the BIT CREW off on an improv adventure of surf lingo, organized crime involving unsuspecting UK co-eds, "re-imagining" history, and mispronouncing words. Episode five has our favorite ending so far…we all just lost it – we hope you laugh so much your sides will ache, and your heart goes pitter-pat.

Pop quiz, hotshot… What if Speed had taken a different route? This 1994 adrenaline-fueled thrill ride cemented Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock as 90s icons, but it almost looked a lot different. On this episode, we're hitting the REWIND button and taking a second look at the film for the podcast, diving even deeper into alternate casting choices, behind-the-scenes near-misses, and the wild ‘what ifs' that could have changed the movie forever. From script rewrites that transformed a simple action flick into one of the decade's most pulse-pounding hits, to the moments that made it an instant classic, we dig into how Speed raced into film history… and what might've happened if it had taken a wrong turn.

Lock, load, and prepare for a ballistic ride. This week, the Born to Watch crew take on the movie that brought Keanu Reeves roaring back into the action spotlight and set a new standard for gun-fu carnage with their John Wick (2014) Review.Whitey, G Man, Damo, and returning guest Bones gather in the "Red Circle Russian Baths" to break down this lean, mean revenge machine. The premise is simple: they killed his puppy, they stole his car, and now John Wick is going to kill absolutely everyone. What follows is 101 minutes of exquisitely choreographed violence, ruthless headshots, and underworld world-building that's as fascinating as it is stylish.The boys kick things off with an "overs and unders" rewatch count, Bones leading the charge with a double-digit tally, Damo admitting he was late to the Wick party, and G Man revealing this was only his second full viewing. Whitey takes us back to his last days running a video shop in 2014, when he first discovered the movie on DVD and immediately knew it was something special.From there, it's a high-calibre conversation covering the sequels (John Wick 2 gets big love, John Wick 3 cops a length warning, and John Wick 4 is called out for testing bladders at nearly three hours). They crunch the numbers on the original film's body count, 84 kills for Wick alone, and swap favourite takedowns, from the Red Circle massacre to the infamous knife-to-the-chest finisher.But John Wick isn't just about spraying bullets. The team dive into what makes it different: the cool, calculated underworld mythology of The Continental, the gold coin economy, and the assassin's code that adds sophistication to the chaos. They agree that the "no business on Continental grounds" rule is a masterstroke, and that Ian McShane's Winston brings the perfect mix of charm and menace.Keanu Reeves' career gets its own spotlight, with nods to Point Break, Speed, The Matrix, and even the roles he almost played (Platoon, Starship Troopers). Supporting cast members also get their flowers: Michael Nyqvist's quietly menacing Viggo, Alfie Allen's punchable rich-kid villainy, Willem Dafoe's sniper guardian angel, and a surprise cameo from wrestling giant Kevin Nash.In true Born to Watch fashion, the chat spirals into side quests: hot takes on Taken's influence on modern revenge films, debates over whether Russians are cinema's ultimate gangsters, and an oddly passionate discussion on Japanese onsens and Russian bathhouses (including the etiquette of washing before soaking with strangers).They also unpack critical reception, David Stratton's dismissive "all gun battles" take versus The New York Times' praise for its style, wit, and box office performance, noting how word of mouth turned a modest $86 million return into the launchpad for a billion-dollar franchise.Signature segments return in force:Hit, Sleeper, Dud, Swinger – with Interstellar and Edge of Tomorrow as hits, Frank as the sleeper, Dumb and Dumber To as the dud, and Pompeii roasted as a "swinger" that belongs in cinematic ash.Snobs Report Special – veering gloriously off-topic to Alexandra Daddario's career-making scene in True Detective.Question Time – covering everything from the realism of Wick's "magic pills" to whether Iosef's death was anticlimactic, and what exactly makes a headshot so satisfying.Through it all, the crew's affection for John Wick is undeniable. They celebrate its stripped-back storytelling, grounded stunt work, and unrelenting pace, while acknowledging its few stumbles. It's the perfect mix of 80s-style simplicity and modern fight choreography, proof that a revenge story, told well, never goes out of style.If you're a fan of tight, furious action films with a killer lead, a colourful rogues' gallery, and a fictional criminal underworld you want to explore (but not live in), this is the Born to Watch episode for you.JOIN THE CONVERSATIONIs John Wick the best modern action franchise or just a stylish headshot marathon?Which kill in the Red Circle nightclub is your all-time favourite?Is killing the puppy the single most effective way to make an audience cheer for revenge?Drop us a voicemail at https://www.borntowatch.com.au and be part of the show!Listen to the full episode now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your pods.#JohnWick #KeanuReeves #MoviePodcast #ActionMovies #BornToWatch #GunFu #RevengeMovies #CultAction #FilmReview #PopCulture #borntowatchpodcast

In this deeply candid and unforgettable episode of Still Here Hollywood, host Steve Kmetko welcomes Bronson Pinchot, the instantly iconic star of Beverly Hills Cop and Perfect Strangers. Bronson recounts his journey from poverty and an abusive childhood—surviving what he calls “the most enthusiastic and ingenious abuser you can imagine”—to sudden stardom after improvising the role of Serge, the flamboyant art gallery clerk in Beverly Hills Cop, opposite Eddie Murphy. Pinchot shares how that single scene, inspired by a real Israeli makeup artist, turned him into a "same-day sensation." With emotional depth and razor-sharp wit, Bronson opens up about navigating fame, finding healing through storytelling, and staying grounded through a turbulent rise in Hollywood. A must-watch interview optimized for fans of 80s film legends, raw celebrity stories, and unforgettable Hollywood transformations.Show Credits Host/Producer: Steve Kmetko All things technical: Justin Zangerle Executive Producer: Jim Lichtenstein Music by: Brian Sanyshyn Transcription:  Mushtaq Hussain   https://stillherehollywood.com http://patreon.com/stillherehollywood Suggest Guests at: stillherehollywood@gmail.com Advertise on Still Here Hollywood: jim@stillherenetwork.com Publicist: Maggie Perlich: maggie@numbertwelvemarketing.com

A Cleveland woman is charged with murder after her missing boyfriend’s body was found bound in rope and wrapped in a sheet in the Huron River. A stolen Rolex engraved for Keanu Reeves has turned up in Chile, where police recovered it along with other luxury watches months after a 2023 break-in at the actor’s Los Angeles home.

Okay, we wouldn't necessarily call this movie "great," because it makes a ton of unforced errors. But there's still a lot to like here, including one of the most incredible climactic scenes ever put on film. Keanu Reeves was probably right to pass on this one (and Sandra Bullock basically had to do this), but 'Speed 2' is a fascinating film - and occasionally pretty solid. Let's look back at one of the most maligned sequels of all time, and when you're done, be sure to follow us on social @revengeof90spod and Substack at https://revengeofthe90s.substack.com/.

Diane is still mourning the death of her boyfriend when a game of Words With Friends leads to a connection. The man claims to be actor Keanu Reeves. While initially skeptical, the video chat and voice messages he sends eventually convince her of his identity. As the relationship deepens over three years, “Keanu” will borrow thousands of dollars from Diane for an ongoing legal battle with a former manager. He also asks for her help receiving funds for his charity, which unwittingly makes her a money mule. When a police detective comes knocking at her door, she realizes the man is an impostor who stole over $160,000 from her.

We need to make “Much Ado About Keanu” Reeves. That's according to pop culture writer Sezín Devi Koehler's new book about the wildly popular – if sometimes underestimated – Hollywood star. Besides acting in eighty films over his 40-year career, from “Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure” to “The Matrix,” Reeves' roles have challenged stereotypes of masculinity, provided representation of Asian American and native Hawaiian communities— and he's known for stepping aside to let his costars shine. We'll talk about what makes Reeves' career “most excellent.” What's your favorite Keanu role? Guests: Carly Severn, senior editor of audience news, KQED Sezín Devi Koehler, pop culture writer; author, "Much Ado About Keanu: A Critical Reeves Theory" Angelica Jade Bastién, critic covering film and pop culture, New York Magazine's Vulture Learn more about your ad choices.

This week, our hosts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠Dave Bittner⁠⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Joe Carrigan⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Maria Varmazis⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ (also host of the ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠T-Minus⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Space Daily show) are back sharing the latest in social engineering scams, phishing schemes, and criminal exploits that are making headlines. Our hosts share some follow-up, including a Rick Roll after the last episode. They also highlight a listener note from Evaldas in Lithuania, who explains that companies often use alternate domains for marketing emails to protect their main domain's reputation—so marking them as spam is actually expected. Joe's got a story of a billion-dollar AI-fueled scam where criminals impersonate celebrities like Keanu Reeves and Kevin Costner to exploit lonely fans—convincing them to send money, fall in love, and keep the relationship secret, all while Hollywood scrambles to fight back. Maria has the story of how a federal court blocked the FTC's new “click-to-cancel” rule—meant to make canceling subscriptions easier—due to a procedural misstep, just days before it was set to take effect. Dave shares a story from Reddit about a disturbing extortion scam where a victim received a fake photo of their car outside a strip club—with their real license plate—demanding $1,000 to keep it quiet, raising questions about data scraping and AI manipulation. Our catch of the day comes from the scams subreddit, where a user shares a tale of a scammer promising big returns for investing in gold and diamonds—spoiler alert: it's all glitter, no gold. Complete our annual ⁠⁠audience survey⁠⁠ before August 31.

On this week's episode, Sonny Bunch (The Bulwark), Alyssa Rosenberg (The Washington Post), and Peter Suderman (Reason) ask why Keanu Reeves, of all people, is the most-impersonated celebrity by scammers and how AI is being used to take money from lonely elderly people. (For more, read Rebecca Keegan's great piece in the Hollywood Reporter on this terrifying, saddening subject.) Then they review Superman, an oddly Dubya-coded superhero movie.
