Keanu Reeves Announces Upcoming Broadway Project with Ben Platt & Noah Galvin: “I Truly Admire Their Love and Want to Work with Them”

In a surprising and heartwarming announcement, Hollywood icon Keanu Reeves revealed that he is preparing to take his talents to the Broadway stage — and he won’t be doing it alone. Reeves confirmed that he will be collaborating with acclaimed performers and real-life couple Ben Platt and Noah Galvin in an upcoming theater production that is already generating major buzz across both Hollywood and Broadway circles.

At a recent press conference in New York City, Reeves shared his excitement about the new project, which is still under wraps in terms of title and theme but is expected to debut in early 2026. Speaking with his signature calm and sincerity, Reeves praised Platt and Galvin not only for their artistic brilliance but also for the strength of their relationship.

“Ben and Noah are phenomenal artists — passionate, disciplined, and fearless. But what touches me most is the love they share, both on and off the stage. I truly admire their connection, and I’ve wanted to work with them for a long time,” Reeves said.

Ben Platt, known for his Tony Award-winning role in Dear Evan Hansen, and Noah Galvin, who also took on the lead role in the same production after Platt’s departure, have become one of Broadway’s most beloved power couples. Their recent engagement and open celebration of their relationship have made them symbols of LGBTQ+ pride in the entertainment industry.

Reeves, while known for his work in film, has always maintained a deep love for the theater. He previously starred in stage productions such as Hamlet and The Tempest, and has often spoken about his desire to return to live performance. According to sources close to the production, this new collaboration will be a contemporary, emotionally-driven piece that blends music, movement, and dramatic storytelling — a perfect fit for all three actors.

Platt responded to Reeves’ announcement on social media with gratitude and awe, writing:

“This is a dream come true. Keanu Reeves is a legend with a soul to match. Working with him — and doing it alongside my fiancé — is a gift we don’t take for granted.”

Galvin echoed the excitement in a playful post:

“Broadway just got a little more badass. Let’s goooo.”

Fans from both Broadway and Hollywood are already expressing overwhelming excitement at the unexpected trio. Many are calling the collaboration a “once-in-a-generation” event that blends cinematic gravitas with theatrical magic.

As rehearsals begin later this year, one thing is clear: this project is more than just another show — it’s a celebration of artistry, authenticity, and love. And with Keanu Reeves at the center of it all, the stage has never felt more electric.
