Keanu Reeves’ Scrapped Role in Star Wars: The Acolyte: A “What Could Have Been” Story
You read that right—Keanu Reeves was almost in Star Wars: The Acolyte. Imagine John Wick with a lightsaber! Sadly, this dream scenario never made it to production. However, early concept art and plot ideas paint a fascinating picture of what might have been. Let’s break down what we know about this scrapped storyline and how Reeves almost joined the Star Wars universe. The Gladiator Jedi? What Early Concepts Showed So, here’s the wild part: early concepts featured Reeves’ character, Sol, living on Klatooine. And what was Sol doing there? Fighting in gladiator matches!
