Keanu Reeves would 'love to play Johnny Silverhand again' in Cyberpunk 2⁠—but that'd be a tough needle to thread with how the first game ends

Cyberpunk 2077 character Johnny Silverhand with arms crossed looks away from the camera and smiles.

In a recent interview with IGN, Keanu Reeves offered a spark of hope that he may return as foul-mouthed rockerboy Johnny Silverhand in Cyberpunk 2, the currently in preproduction follow-up to Cyberpunk 2077. This is far from a confirmation, though, and the original game's many ending permutations complicate the character's potential return.

Asked if he'd be willing to reprise the character in Cyberpunk 2⁠—formerly codenamed Project Orion⁠—Reeves said: "Absolutely, I'd love to play Johnny Silverhand again." And that's it, that's all he said on the matter. But it's more than we had previously, and it also raises questions as to how CDPR could continue his story.
