Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter 'Bill & Ted' Reunion Photos Give Us Life

EWWe didn't realize how much we needed these most excellent photos of Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter as older (but still totally rad) Bill & Ted.

The two actors, who played the lovable stoner time travelers in "Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure" and the 1991 sequel, reunited for an awesome photo shoot for EW's Reunion Issue. (Love those Napoleon and Joan of Arc T-shirts.)

They also talked about the long-in-the-works third film, "Bill & Ted Face the Music," which, is thisclose to finally finding a financier after 11 years of development hell. The film would find now 50-something Bill and Ted married with kids (no, not to each other!) and revisiting their past.

At the end of the first film, Rufus (George Carlin) told them they would write music that would turn the world into a utopia. And that never happened.

"You're told you're gonna save the world," original "Bill & Ted" writer Chris Matheson tells EW. "And now you're 50 and you haven't done it."

According to Reeves, Bill and Ted are given a mandate to step up and fulfill that promise: "Someone comes from the future and says: 'Not only do you have to save the world, you have to save everything...""

"I think it's kind of like 'A Christmas Carol' with Bill and Ted," teases co-creater Ed Solomon. "Looking at their lives, and really kind of rediscovering what they're about."

Solomon recently revealed the most heinous truth that many execs would rather fund a reboot than a sequel. To which we cry, "Bogus!"

There's already a director (Dean Parisot of "Galaxy Quest" fame) and a producer (Steven Soderbergh, no less) ready to go. And William Sadler is game to return as Death. Now they just need the money! C'mon, someone with cash please make this movie happen!

Contemporary Chinese Cinema: Shunji Iwai’s Letters from Shanghai

Contemporary Chinese Cinema  is a column devoted to exploring contemporary Chinese-language cinema primarily as it is revealed to us at North American multiplexes. The sneakiest major release of the year is surely the latest from Japanese director Shunji Iwai, whose new movie opens this Friday at a dozen multiplexes around North America courtesy of the distributor China Lion Film. Last Letter is Iwai’s first film made in China, and stars Zhou Xun, who starred in one of last year’s best films, Ann Hui’s Our Time Will Come , which was also distributed here by China Lion. That he would be working in a new country is no surprise: Iwai is one of the more eclectic filmmakers of his generation: having started in TV and video in the early 90s before moving into film, he’s since made documentaries and music videos, science fiction films and anime, epics of modern alienation and ravishingly romantic odes to the wonders of youth and love. His last film, Chang-ok’s Letter , was an hour-long...

Incandescent indie, reflective hip-hop, jangly post-punk and more genre-bending tunes from the week Juletta + Ishan: Gut Feeling Juletta + Ishan’s “Gut Feeling” is best described through its beautiful contradictions: haunting and luminescent, smooth and uneasy, buoyant and weighty. Written and produced by both artists, the track appears on the NYC-based duo’s debut album, If I Never Hit Land (out this Friday), which is based … COOL HUNTING® https://ift.tt/35p5Vqj October 18, 2020 at 01:03PM

House music for those missing the sweaty dance floor, psych-tinged lounge, industrial electro-pop and more new music Solomun: Home From Hamburg-based DJ and producer Solomun (aka Mladen Solomun), sweeping house track “Home” exists as an ode to the “sacred rooms” that were built for music. For those yearning for a sweaty, dark dance floor, this nostalgic and atmospheric banger offers some satisfaction—albeit in your own … COOL HUNTING® https://ift.tt/3dWfZe1 October 25, 2020 at 01:03PM
