Next summer will be very hot, as Tim Miller's film 'Shiver' starring Keanu Reeves will hit the screens. Warner Bros. has announced the premiere of the sci-fi thriller for August 13, 2027. The screenplay was written by Ian Shorr ('Infinity', 'Splinter'), the director is Tim Miller ('Deadpool', 'Terminator: Dark Fate'), and the producers are Matthew Vaughn ('Kingsman', 'X-Men: First Class') and Aron Ryder ('All of You' and 'Dumb Money').
At the center of the film is an unsuccessful smuggler who finds himself in a deadly adventure during a mission in the Caribbean Sea. Surrounded by criminals and hungry sharks, he gets caught in a time loop and tries to break the fatal cycle. The film will combine the dynamics of an action-packed thriller with the depth of psychological survival. So far, the plot of 'Shiver' is being kept under strict secrecy, notes The Hollywood Reporter.
According to film critics, 'Shiver' will bring immense popularity and top the box office, as the director and screenwriter promise thrilling plot twists and a test of 'humanity' in extreme conditions, since the hero will have to change to survive in an endless cycle of humiliation and death. Tim Miller is preparing a true spectacle with special effects. Thanks to the cast and Hollywood quality, the film will find audiences worldwide.
Insiders note that Warner Bros. is considering inviting Tom Hardy. His duo with Keanu could become a legendary clash of two different acting schools. Since Henry Cavill often works with Matthew Vaughn, his candidacy is also mentioned in fan lists for the role of the 'perfect pursuer.' After working together with Reeves in 'Who’s There' and 'Ballerina,' rumors suggest that the creators want to utilize their chemistry again.
Keanu Reeves has already begun special training in diving and freediving, as a significant part of the film will take place in or on the water.
