YES.
Keanu Reeves, famous for some of the most iconic roles in modern cinema, is reportedly part of the cast of Toy Story 4.
The hotly anticipated fourth film in the beloved Pixar franchise is set to hit the big screen in June 2019, and small details about the film are slowly being teased to the public.
Following two teasers trailers — which introduced Forky (Tony Hale), Bunny (Jordan Peele) and Ducky (Keegan Michael Key) — other cast members are now teasing a role to be voiced by Keanu Reeves.
Reeves, who is famous for his all-action performances in The Matrix Trilogy and The John Wick franchise, is widely regarded as one of the soundest celebs out there, and he would definitely only up the likability factor that Toy Story already has in its favour.
Speaking to Jimmy Fallon last night, Tim Allen, who plays Buzz Lightyear said:
“Keanu Reeves has got a great part,” Allen said. “Actually, a little inside story, even he said — gentle, wonderful guy that he is — ‘This sounds too much like Buzz Lightyear.’ And his character does have an edge to that. And the guy said, ‘So we calmed him down a little bit,’ and they reminded me his toy is only that big,” making it clear that Reeves’ toy is going to be very small.

Unfortunately, Allen didn’t give away any more than that, but this is enough to get us hyped up for the time being.
