Keanu rules out Point Break remake
Film star Keanu Reeves has ruled out the possibility of starring in a remake of his 1991 action hit “Point Break”. Asked by BBC 5 live if he would like to be involved, Reeves said: “Absolutely not. It's not my place.”
After expressing reservations about the quality of the project, he added: “If they can find a way to do it that works out good, then God bless them.”
He went on to speculate that some films - such as “Wizard of Oz” or “Apocalypse Now” - should have a “no remake clause.”
Directed by Kathryn Bigelow - who went on to win an Oscar for The Hurt Locker - “Point Break” became a cult hit in the 1990s and a sequel had been rumoured for many years.The death of Patrick Swayze in 2009 made that plan unlikely, and two years later film company Alcon Entertainment announced it would embark on a remake instead.
