Keanu Reeves has dropped out of Hulu's 'The Devil in the White City' adaptation.
Fans will have to wait a little longer for Keanu Reeves to make his first major appearance on American television. Per Variety, the star has left Hulu's adaptation of Erik Larson's bestselling novel The Devil in the White City. He was originally slated to play one of the two leads, Daniel H. Burnham, in the series. The show has been in development since 2019 until being ordered to series in 2022.
The Devil in the White City has been shaping up for a while as a major production for Hulu. The book itself is a classic historical nonfiction piece, becoming a New York Times bestseller and garnering an Edgar Award for Best Fact Crime among a slew of other honors. Moreover, the production has both Leonardo DiCaprio and Martin Scorsese attached as executive producers with Sam Shaw of Castle Rock fame writing and serving as showrunner.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY So far, neither Hulu nor Reeves's representatives have commented on the star's departure from the series. He was the only member of the cast announced for the series to this point. Despite his departure, the rest of the creative team remains intact with DiCaprio, Scorsese, and Shaw joined by fellow executive producers Rick Yorn, Jennifer Davisson of Appian Way, Stacey Sher, Lila Byock, and Mark Lafferty.
The Devil in the White City will begin production next year with an eye toward a 2024 premiere. While Reeves won't be in the series, you can check out an interview Collider conducted with him last year about his series BRZRKR below.
