ComicBook.com’s Brandon Davis interviewed Kevin Feige, the president of Marvel Studios at the Spider-Man: Far From Home press junket in London. Kevin Feige revealed a lot there including the news about Avengers: Endgame getting a re release. Davis took the time to ask the producer about the potential future involvement of some big names in the MCU and this included Keanu Reeves. Kevin Feige said regarding Reeves that:

“We talk to him for almost every film we make. We talk to Keanu Reeves about, I don’t know when, if, or ever he’ll join the MCU, but we very much want to figure out the right way to do it.”

Feige then went on to compare Reeves to Jake Gyllenhaal, saying that they talked to the Spider-Man: Far From Home star “multiple times” until the perfect role (Mysterio) appeared. They are leaning for a similar situation to happen with Keanu.
