Adam Driver, who currently stars as emotional villain Kylo Ren in Star Wars: The Last Jedi, looks a little bit like a young Keanu Reeves. What’s that? You don’t think so? Well, take a look at this startling photograph that comic book writer Mark Millar put together:
Face-Swap Adam Driver and Keannu Reeves and you just feel confused and slightly lost… pic.twitter.com/u9bZLYX35c

Yes, the photo on the right is Adam Driver. The photo on the left is Keanu Reeves’ face photoshopped on Adam Driver’s head. We’re pretty sure that’s correct. The internet was confused and distraught by the image.
I just see two pictures of Adam Driver. pic.twitter.com/0kP2ja0fDW

The face swap image upset several Keanu Reeves fans who thought the actor deserved better.

Why y’all gotta do Keanu Reeves like that? https://t.co/jqilwouuoZ

But others embraced the image and used it as a springboard for jokes involving the two actors’ combined filmography.
Now we know who Hollywood would call if they ever do a John Wick Jr. spinoff.

Adam Driver is just a 4K Keannu

Adam Driver actually doesn’t look that much like Keanu Reeves (it’s mostly the hair!) but picturing Reeves as Kylo Ren is both amusing and disturbing.

Anyway, if Reeves was cast in a Star Wars film, he’d definitely be a member of the Resistance.
