The topic New Apple TV movie starring Keanu Reeves now available to stream is currently the subject of lively discussion — readers and analysts are keeping a close eye on developments.
This is taking place in a dynamic environment: companies’ decisions and competitors’ reactions can quickly change the picture.
Last February, Apple TV held a full-day media event during which it announced multiple films and series that would premiere throughout the year.
One of those was Outcome, starring Keanu Reeves, Cameron Diaz (Vanilla Sky), and Matt Bomer (The Nice Guys), and directed by Jonah Hill.
Here’s what to expect from Outcome, based on Apple’s plot summary:
Outcome is a dark comedy that centers on Reef Hawk (Reeves), a beloved Hollywood star who must dive into the depths of his hidden demons after he is extorted with a mysterious video that’s sure to shatter his image and end his career. With the support of his lifelong besties, Kyle (Diaz) and Xander (Bomer), along with his crisis lawyer, Ira (Hill), Reef embarks on a soul-searching journey to make amends with anyone he could have possibly wronged in hopes of identifying the blackmailer.
The movie lands just hours after its first reviews came in, with a rather tepid response: it scored just 22% on Rotten Tomatoes’ Tomatometer. IndieWire referred to it as a “desperate and unfunny comedy about the pain of public opinion.”
While most negative reviews seemed to concentrate on Jonah Hill’s performance as co-writer and director, Reeves drew more pleasant comments from critics. Aaron Neuwirth from We Live Entertainment said Reeves was “clearly game to lean into what the story is calling for.”
Apple TV is available for $12.99 per month and features hit TV shows and movies like Severance, The Studio, The Morning Show, Shrinking and Silo.
