Keanu Reeves has been planning to make a "Bill and Ted's" sequel, which would focus on the guys as middle-aged men. Reeves was reported interested until his manager advised him against it. Now during the Oscars, MTV News caught up with Reeves and jokingly asked if he is still working on bringing Bill and Ted back to the big screen. "I'm trying, I'm trying," he replied. When asked if he is joking, Reeves said: "I'm not, we'll see." Back in 2007, MGM was developing a straight to DVD sequel (without Reeves and Alex Winter) and even had a script by Gabe Grifoni and Suzanne Francis. Apparently that has now been scrapped, since Reeves is still considering a big screen version.

Mark Steilen is hitting the road for Screen Gems. The scribe has signed on to direct the road-trip comedy Weiners. Gregory Smith, Kenan Thompson, Zachary Levi and Fran Kranz have boarded the project, which revolves around best friends who travel across the country in a homemade weinermobile to face their inner demons and battle a nefarious talk show host. Gabe Grifoni and Suzanne Francis penned the screenplay. Susan Johnson and Smith will produce, while Anonymous Content's Scott Bankston and Beverly Strong will executive produce. The film also marks the debut effort from Braveart Films, an indie production company recently formed by Smith and Johnson. The two met last year when Smith was filming Nearing Grace, which Johnson produced.
