Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter to star onstage in WAITING FOR GODOT

Only very tangentially genre-related, but this seems like an outstanding bit of casting. Bill & Ted co-stars Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter are reuniting, this time onstage in a new production of Samuel Beckett's classic play Waiting for Godot. Reeves will play Estragon whilst Winter will play Vladimir.

The production will be directed by Jamie Lloyd and will hit Broadway in autumn 2025.

Reeves and Winter previously starred together in the three films of the Bill & Ted franchise: Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure (1989), Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey (1991) and Bill & Ted Face the Music (2020). They reprised the roles in the animated series Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventures (1990-91).
