Keanu Reeves replacing Tom Cruise in The Mummy franchise would indeed look good!
SUMMARY
Keanu Reeves is an iconic actor who has portrayed several roles in various films throughout his Hollywood career.
A fanmade trailer for Tom Cruise’s 2017 film The Mummy was released with Keanu Reeves replacing Cruise in the lead role.
The world fell in love with Keanu Reeves ever since he portrayed the role of Jack Traven in the iconic 1994 film Speed. Going on to The Matrix franchise, Reeves solidified his career in Hollywood with millions of fans to his name.
In a recent fan-made trailer, Reeves replaced Tom Cruise in The Mummy franchise. With shots from various Keanu Reeves movies and The Mummy, the trailer sure looks good.\ But more importantly, Reeves could turn out to be the actor who could replace Tom Cruise in The Mummy franchise for the Dark Universe!

Keanu Reeves Might Just Be The Perfect Man To Replace Tom Cruise!
Taking to YouTube, a fanmade trailer for a sequel to the 2017 movie The Mummy was released by KH Studio.
With shots from the 2017 film with cuts of Keanu Reeves in between, the trailer surely looks good compared to other fanmade trailers.

With Universal Studios trying to create a Dark Universe with horrors from beyond, it seems that Keanu Reeves may be able to save their film. Having some iconic shots of Reeves from films like the John Wick franchise, the trailer managed to mix The Mummy and Reeves well together.
Taking to the comment section of the video, here’s what people had to say about the Speed actor potentially replacing Tom Cruise in The Mummy!
“The right man for the the right role for me!!”
“John wick taking on super natural forces”
“You know it will be good with Reeves in it”
“Love this concept for a movie!”
Well, as much as we would love to see a mishmash of Constantine, Indiana Jones, John Wick, and, Lara Croft taking on a supernatural mummy, the trailer is just fanmade.
On the other hand, Reeves has so many movies to his name that he decided to reject roles (and with good reason too).
In an interview, Reeves talked about letting go of Speed 2: Cruise Control and the hilarious reason for which he said no!
Why Keanu Reeves Rejected Speed 2: Cruise Control?
A still from Speed (1994)
Back in 1994, Reeves and Sandra Bullock portrayed the lead roles of Jack Traven and Annie Porter in the iconic film Speed.
Since the movie was a success, a sequel was naturally developed but this time, the bomb would be on a cruise ship.
During his appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live (via Den of Geek), Reeves revealed that he had to drop out of the project for two reasons. The second reason is simply too hilarious to drop out of a movie!
“I loved working with Jan de Bont and Sandra, of course. It was just a situation in life where I got the script and I read the script and I was like ugggghhh.”
He further continued,
“It was about a cruise ship and I was thinking, a bus, a cruise ship… Speed, bus, but then a cruise ship is even slower than a bus and I was like, I love you guys but I just can’t do it.”
Well, luckily the decision worked out in favor of Reeves since he got to be a part of The Matrix while Speed 2: Cruise Control became a massive failure.
As of April 2023, Keanu Reeves, Sandra Bullock, and director Jan de Bont have expressed their interest in returning for a Speed sequel with the original cast returning.
