Keanu Reeves locks in on samurai pic ‘47 Ronin’
By Behind The Scenes TV on Nov 18, 2009 in Actors, Casting
Universal Pictures is near a deal with Carl Erik Rinsch to make his feature directing debut on “47 Ronin,” the epic period samurai swordsmen tale that will star Keanu Reeves.
Scott Stuber is producing through his Stuber Pictures banner, with Pam Abdy also aboard in a producing capacity.
Pic is a priority project for Universal, and it is unusual to see a first-timer entrusted to helm a film with a large budget and tentpole aspirations.
