Jonah Hill is planning his next directorial project and he's reportedly found the ideal star to take the lead. Studios are apparently showing interest in the project because of the top-tier actor attached to it, namely, Keanu Reeves.
Unbeknownst to many fans, Jonah Hill has been dabbling in writing screenplays and directing movies. The 21 Jump Street star recently debuted as a documentary film director. Hill first debuted as a film director in 2018 with the movie Mid90s. It was about a 13-year-old boy who spent time with a group of older skateboarders in 1990s Los Angeles. Mid90s was inspired by his own childhood growing up in the mid-1990s.
The new project, Outcome, will reportedly star Keanu Reeves as its protagonist. Ezra Wood will co-write the movie alongside Hill with his production company, Strong Baby, involved as the producer.
Outcome's plot remains unclear but it's expected to generate interest due to Reeves' and Hill's involvement. Reports suggest that multiple studios and streaming companies are interested in bidding for the project, albeit Hill and Reeves have yet to publicly acknowledge the film.
