Boom! Studios’ recent action comic BRZRKR falls pretty firmly under pop culture’s tacitly understood “ Dogstar Rule,” i.e., the general acknowledgement that some things are inherently more interesting because Keanu Reeves is the one doing them.

Justin Lin, the filmmaker who steered the Fast & Furious franchise to new and revived heights, has come aboard to direct BRZRKR, the Keanu Reeves-created comic being adapted by Netflix. Reeves is starring in the gritty feature project as well as producing.

Reeves co-wrote the comic book series with Matt Kindt, which is now being adapted by The Batman 2 scribe Mattson Tomlin. Naturally, given Reeves' ground and bone-breaking history in the genre, making him an immortal character can only spell trouble for those caught on the receiving end of B's story.
