‘Bill And Ted 3’ Image Makes Keanu Reeves And Alex Winter ‘Face The Music’
It’s still hard to believe this is really happening, butBill and Ted 3, akaBill and Ted Face the Music, is a real movie that we’ll actually get to see this year. After years of rumors and false starts, a thirdBill and Tedmovie is ready to bring backKeanu ReevesandAlex Winteras the Wyld Stallyns in their adulthood. A new, officialBill and Ted 3image gives us a look at Reeves and Winter in character, awaiting us with open arms.
I have to get this out of the way first: I cannot get used to clean-shaven Keanu Reeves. I know the actor has appeared clean-shaven in films before – including the first twoBill and Tedfilms. But Reeves' facial hair has become such a big part of his overall look that to see him now beard-free is just…odd. At least in still image form. Perhaps it’ll look perfectly normal in action, but in this pic – which first debuted atEmpire– it’s slightly off-putting.
InBill and Ted Face the Music, “Now enduring the monotony of middle-aged life, William ‘Bill’ S. Preston, Esq. and Theodore ‘Ted’ Logan are warned by a visitor from the future of the need for them to create a song that will save all life on Earth and the entire universe. The pair work with their families, old friends, famous musicians, and each other to complete the task.”

“They were told when they were teenagers that they were going to save reality, and they’ve been working on it the whole time,” Matheson toldEW. “Now an emissary from the future comes and says, ‘You’ve got to do it right now. We’ve got literally 80 minutes or all of reality will come to an end.'”
