Keanu can play mysterious and stoic well but he literally acts exactly the same in every movie. spike as a character is very expressive, he moves around alot (watch the fight scenes from the show) he is emotional and rash and reactive. keanu is none of these things. honestly i dont even know if he'll make a good klaatu.
