"There's a draft of the script, but the writer did such a great job [that] in order to make the movie, you would need half a billion dollars. So the studio went, 'This movie is fantastic and it would cost half a billion dollars so he's doing a rewrite" said Reeves.
Adding: "The only challenge was to make a satisfying western narrative out of the kind of storytelling that happens. There's a great draft, so we're just trying to pull it back a little bit now" .
The original story is set during a time when "astral gates" make interstellar travel possible.
Humanity has been decimated by a lunar explosion resulting from a gate accident, spreading us out across the solar system.
A crime wave spreads , giving rise to the use of bounty hunters.
Reeves will play Spike Spiegel, a bounty hunter and former member of a crime syndicate.
