The 43-year-old Keanu Reeves has signed on to star in the remake of The Day the Earth Stood Still from FoxBoston (EON) – The 43-year-old Keanu Reeves has signed on to star in the remake of The Day the Earth Stood Still from Fox.

Fox is doing the remake of the 1951 sci-fi classic. Keanu Reeves is going to play the role of Klaatu. The Robert Wise classic is apparently going to be re-done from the ground up.

Klaatu is an alien who has many human traits. He has with him a robot named Kort who is indestructible.

Fox and Keanu Reeves want to push the message of the original 1951 classic with the remake as well, that if humans as a race continue down their aggressive path, they will demolish themselves.

The director will be Scott Derrickson. The possibility is there for this to have a major blockbuster release in winter 2008 is not definitely by summer 2009 as Fox wants to get this one out as quickly as possible.
