Keanu Reeves and Justin Lin are joining forces for the highly anticipated BRZRKR movie at Netflix.

Keanu Reeves, who co-created the BRZRKR comic series, will not only star in the film but also produce it.

Half-mortal and half-god, he is cursed with endless violence. After centuries of war, he finally finds a place working for the U.S. government, hoping to uncover the truth about his existence and how to end it.

The comic has been a huge success, selling over 3.5 million copies worldwide.
