Avi Lerner Is Pissed With Keanu Reeves

It seems that Avi Lerner had a big movie planned with Keanu Reeves.  But now he is apparently pissed that Keanu Reeves is has bailed on it at the last minute.

The Detail was a film where Simon Crane was to make his feature film directorial debut. The action/adventure film was to shoot in South Africa starting on October 14 for about two months of filming.  But then Lerner got the call from Richards that Reeves was not going to do the film. That put everything into a tailspin at Millennium.

According to Deadline.com:

Lerner said actors have grown accustomed to doing this “without a thought” about what it does to the crew who rely on the work, the other actors and and production people. “These actors do this all the time but they have no feel for the crew, and they get their lawyers and their reps to protect them. Someone needs to talk to him and tell him that you should not do these things to people. It’s not fair and it’s not nice. I don’t care what they think, I tell the truth.”

Gee, what a pity.
