While the role was being described as a significant one, it was also suggested that Reeves might only appear in a post-credits sequence that would set up a Hobbs and Shaw sequel.
The rumor landed about a month ago and it claimed that the new film would reveal that Idris Elba’s character, who is presented as the film’s villain in the trailers, is actually working for an even bigger bad guy, who would be played by Keanu Reeves.
