In 1989, we fell in love with Bill & Ted, and we still love them! Case in point, later this year, they will be sharing the stage in Waiting for Godot on Broadway, and it is the most anticipated show of the Fall.
Well, a lightbulb went off in someone’s head when they realized that the actors are coming to the Great White Way, so they said that we should get Alex Winter and Keanu Reeves to present at this year’s Tony Awards. Therefore,, they put out the offer, and they said, “Excellent,” and did an air guitar strum.
I have a most excellent idea. They should start off the show with them dressed as Bill & Ted. Then we hear someone say that they need to do a paper on Hamilton. So, they run to their phone booth on stage left, go into it, and the lights go dark. Then, when they turn on, we see the cast of Hamilton ready to perform. Since Lin-Manuel Miranda and the OG cast are reuniting to celebrate the musical’s 10th anniversary.
Then, when they are done, the lights go dark. When they come back on, Ted says, “What year is it? 1776? 2016? Or 2025?” And Bill says, “Woah, dude!” Then, they go to commercial.
When I told my friend that idea, he told me his idea. He said that Patti LuPone and Audra McDonald should come out holding hands! Maybe they can do that too for the first award.
Here are the other presenters: Aaron Tveit, Adam Lambert, Allison Janney, Ariana DeBose, Ben Stiller, Bryan Cranston, Carrie Preston, Charli D’Amelio, Danielle Brooks, Jean Smart, Jesse Eisenberg, Katie Holmes, Kelli O’Hara, Kristin Chenoweth, LaTanya Richardson Jackson, Lea Michele, Lea Salonga, Lin-Manuel Miranda, Michelle Williams, Oprah, Rachel Bay Jones, Renée Elise Goldsberry, Samuel L. Jackson, Sara Bareilles and Sarah Paulson.
My only complaint is that they didn’t ask Little Shop of Horrors’ Milo Manheim and Elizabeth Gillies to be part of the show. They are being hailed as the best Seymour and Audrey of this run. So, it would have been nice if they were able to be part of the broadcast. Who is with me?
Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter are working together on a new project, which is most excellent news. But the bogus news is that it is not Bill & Ted’s 4.
Instead, the two actors are taking their act to Broadway next Fall in an updated version of Waiting for Godot. “We’re incredibly excited to be on stage together and work with the great Jamie Lloyd in one of our favorite plays,” they said in a joint statement.
This will be Reeves’ debut on the Great White Way, and I expect him to win his first Tony in 2026.
Even though they won’t be hitting the stage for another year, you can sign up to get ticket information today at Waiting for Godot. Party on, dudes!

Before Keanu Reeves was doing a historical history report in Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure, he was reporting on a Teddy Bear convention for CBC’s Going Great. The 19-year-old was lovable in that 1984 episode, it is no surprise he became the internet’s boyfriend.
Last week, Keanu Reeves got some puppy love on The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon. And today, which is National Puppy Day, he is getting it on The Kelly Clarkson Show.
The daytime talk show had a playpen full of puppies to celebrate the holiday, and they were just playing around and having some fun. However, when John Wick came out, they wanted to play with him. So he went over to them, they tried to break out of their cell like it was a prison break.
Since he is a puppy whisperer, he was able to get them to calm down so that Clarkson could talk to him about John Wick 4, which comes at midnight.
When it comes to the puppies’ reaction, I don’t blame them. I would do the same thing if I saw him in person. Who wouldn’t? He is the internet’s boyfriend for a reason, as well as one for puppies.
King Charles is the King of England. Leonardo DiCaprio is the King of the World. And Keanu Reeves in the Puppy King. Out of the three, I think Ted Theodore Logan’s is the best.
How did he get that title? Yesterday on The Tonight Show, he and Jimmy Fallon played Pup Quiz. It is a simple game. If you guess an answer correctly, then you get a yellow lab puppy to hold. If you get it wrong, then your opponent gets a puppy.
So, Keanu got all of his answers correct, and Fallon got all of his answers wrong. Therefore, the Matrix star got all of the lovable dogs and declared himself the Puppy King.
And with that, I have even more puppy love for the actor!
Oh, and I can’t believe Fallon tried to steal one of Reeves’ doggies. Didn’t he see what happened the last time someone took John Wick’s best friend???
