Keanu Reeves has done a lot of action movies in his day, but it was Speed that proved he could break out of his typecast and play a calm, intelligent action hero.
Of course, the film did quite well critically and at the box office, and the studio wanted a sequel. Reeves, upon seeing the script, turned down Speed 2: Cruise Control, and instead took on roles that interested him, but this made his career take a major hit at 20th Century Fox. Let’s take a look at why Keanu Reeves’ career was never the same after turning down a role in Speed 2.
