It was also recently reported that Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige has been negotiating with Reeves to star in an unspecified Marvel movie.

He also tugged at heartstrings when Late Show host Stephen Colbert asked, 'What do you think happens when we die?' to which he gave an amazing response: 'I know that the ones who love us will miss us.'

Reeves will also be starring in a fourth installment of the John Wick franchise, a new action film dubbed Rally Car and a mini-series dubbed Rain.
