Take this one with a grain of salt folks, but it seems that Keanu Reeves may be reteaming with the Wachowski brothers to bring an unlikely DC Comic's hero to the screen - none other than the incredibly oddball
Plastic Man. A scooper told
CHUD that Joel Silver was on a German radio broadcast promoting
Ninja Assassin when he said that the Wachowski's will direct
Plastic Man next.
According to the report, the Wachowskis wrote a proposed
Plastic Man script before they created
The Matrix. Furthermore, the report claims that they are aiming for a release date of the end of 2009, and that Keanu Reeves will be playing the role of Eel O'Brien/Plastic Man in the film.
Like we said, take this one with a grain of salt. It all could be true, but at the same time the idea of the Wachowski brothers following up their less-than-well-received
Speed Racer with one of the stranger characters out of the DC Comics line-up may or may not be exactly what DC Comics and Warner Brothers had in mind for how to re-approach adapting their superheroes to the screen.

Can't wait to see what they can do with this. i also at first thought Jim Carrey, but Kean is a good actor, so he can do it.
As Kevin Smith once said, "In Hollywood you fail upwards."
Oh and by the way Civil Cowboy. Speed Racer was fun it's not going to change the world, but I still enjoyed it.
If you like you can leave your usual juvenile comments above my comment. What ever makes you feel good.
