KEANU FOCUSES ON SCOTS FILM PROJECT Dec 29 2003
How to avoid Bridget Jones party horrors
KEANU Reeves has revealed he wants to come to Scotland to star in a screen version of Macbeth.
The 39-year-old Matrix actor is looking to begin filming Shakespeare's tragedy in the Highlands.
He explained: ''I've done Hamlet on stage, now I would like to do Macbeth on screen.
''It would be cool to do it in Scotland.''
The Canadian star said he has been learning aboutthe Scots accent from Tilda Swinton. Though Londonborn, the 42-year-old actress is married to Slab Boys author John Byrne and lives in Moray.
She is tipped to play opposite Keanu as Lady Macbeth.
Yesterday, a spokeswoman for Scottish Screen, which promotes Scotland as a film-making venue, welcomed the news.
She said: ''I'm very glad he might be thinking about setting Macbeth in Scotland. It would be a welcome boost.''

UNROMANTIC REEVES
Keanu's not romantic?
Keanu Reeves, 39, plays a romantic emergency room doctor in Something's Gotta Give, but in real life the mysterious actor insists he's very different. Star thinks he was kidding during a recent press event for the film when he declared, "I'm not romantic. I'm just like, 'How are you doing, do you want to get in the sack?' There's no romance. No sweet nothings. No playing in bed, no gifts, no flowers, nothing. Take it or leave it. This role was really a stretch."Published on: December 26, 2003

National Enquirer ( United Kingdom) - December 29, 2003
Picture Caption:
"Mr. Matrix is worth millions of dollars, so you'd think he could afford a new pair of shoes. Keanu Reeves doesn't seem to care that his taped-up footwear is falling apart as he leaves an L.A. gym after a workout. So what does Keanu spend his money on? Answer on page 8."
Page 8:
"Whoa, Dude! I've got the goods on Keanu Reeves - insiders whisper that he spends a whopping $2,000 a month on that screen-idol kisser! Your secret's out, Pretty Boy! Word is you shell out $500 a week on facials and high-end skin cleansers, moisturisers, wrinkle and eye creams, etc.. Dude, what's next...Botox? Whoa! And next year you're 40."

NEWS - IN THIS SECTION NEXT ITEM
Anger at sex change for angel Gabriel
BRIAN PENDREIGH December 31 2003
SHE has made a reputation for herself by making unusual career choices, but Tilda Swinton is getting ready for what could be her biggest challenge yet – playing the Archangel Gabriel, in a blockbuster comic-book adaptation with Matrix star Keanu Reeves.
Gabriel, who foretold the birth of Christ and revealed the Koran to Muhammad, is traditionally represented as male. But while Swinton's casting could offend Christians, Jews and Muslims alike, it is the fans of the cult Hellblazer comics who seem most outraged by the planned sex change.
The comic-book stories, about a modern sorcerer who has literally been to hell and back, are regarded by their fans as the holy grail of adult comic-book fiction. Gabriel, who is depicted as male in the stories, becomes the arch-enemy of protagonist John Constantine, after Constantine engineers his expulsion from Heaven.
But fans have been outraged by the casting of the Fettes-educated daughter of the Lord Lieutenant of Berwickshire in the film version, which is entitled Constantine.
Hellblazer was created in 1985 by the comic-book writer Alan Moore, whose work is in huge demand with film-makers. In the comics, Constantine is a blond, working-class Liverpudlian and ex-punk-rocker.
The film-makers infuriated fans by making the character American to accommodate Reeves. He teams up with a policewoman, played by Rachel Weisz, to investigate the apparent suicide of her twin, and introduces her to a hinterland of demons and angels in modern Los Angeles.
"I can't understand why they are not casting a man for the role," said one fan on an internet movie database forum. "It seems to me that none of the Warner Bros execs have even bothered to read the comic."
Publicist Paulette Osorio said: "In the script the Archangel Gabriel was not specified as a man or woman but more of an androgynous character."
