According to The Hollywood Reporter<\/ins><\/em><\/a>, Netflix has tapped Fast & Furious director Justin Lin to direct its upcoming movie adaptation of BRZRKR<\/em>, the popular comic by Keanu Reeves and Matt Kindt about an immortal warrior. Netflix first announced<\/ins><\/a> plans to create both a live-action movie and an anime based on BRZRKR<\/ins><\/a> back in 2021, with Reeves starring in the former and returning to voice his character in the animated show. But, we\u2019ve heard little about the projects since. In the meantime, Reeves and author China Mi\u00e9ville dove back into the BRZRKR lore<\/ins><\/a> with The Book of Elsewhere<\/em>, which was released last year.<\/p>\n

There are still no details on when the Netflix adaptations will air, but we can safely expect both to bring violence and plenty of action. BRZRKR<\/em> follows a half-mortal, half-god man known as \u201cB\u201d who has fought his way through 80,000 years of life. By the time he accepts a job killing for the US government, he\u2019s very much over his immortality and looking for a way out. According to The Hollywood Reporter<\/em>, Terminator Zero<\/em> showrunner Mattson Tomlin is writing the script for the movie and the anime.<\/p>\n
