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!

‘Fear Street’ Spoiler Review: Netflix’s Horror Trilogy Mines Nostalgia While Looking to the Future

Netflix’s Fear Street trilogy, a three-week spree of crimes against innocent Shadysiders, ended on Friday. It’s possibly the biggest slasher-movie event since the 2018 Halloween broke box-office records for its franchise and production company. There have been other slasher flicks since then; the bloody body-swap Freaky comes to mind as one genre torch-bearer, seen mostly on VOD late last year. However, with its staggered release pattern — instant summer sequels, now available to stream! —  Fear Street  has built up a sustained momentum this month that goes unmatched by other recent entries in the genre. We took a non-spoiler look at all three  Fear Street films as they launched:  Part One: 1994  on July 2,  Part Two: 1978  on July 9, and Part Three: 1666  on July 16. Now, as the dust settles in the town of Shadyside, we’re ready to dive into the deep end with a spoiler-filled look at the plot twists, character deaths, and buried themes of the whole decade-hopping trilogy. T

Yes, ‘Eternals’ Will Explain Why These Superheroes Didn’t Help Out During ‘Avengers: Endgame’

Eternals  may become the latest example of the many balancing acts that any shared universe will inevitably be asked to navigate. After all, constructing a timeline with a lived-in sense of history must stand up to scrutiny. While fans should generally approach movies with the benefit of the doubt (these are, after all, fictional works made up by human beings rather than an actual historical retelling), creators tend to obsess over these sorts of details. That’s why Marvel producers Nate Moore and Kevin Feige offer reassurances that there’s a very good canonical reason the Eternals didn’t bother showing up to help Captain America fight Thanos. Entertainment Weekly  has the lowdown on all aspects of Eternals , from director Chloe Zhao’s  influences to introductions for each of the main heroes. There’s also an interesting nugget included in the cover story about the movie’s place in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Described as “…largely a standalone story, focusing specifically on th
