The film focuses on underachieving stoner Rel (Peele) and his best friend/cousin Clarence (Key), a suburban square whose very presence riffs on racial preconceptions. (Warner Bros.' New Line made "Keanu" and will release it in theaters April 29.)
The title is a reference to, yes, that Keanu, only this time he's a cat that saves Rel by showing up at his door after the stoner underwent a bad breakup--but whose disappearance sends him and Clarence on a crime-riddled spin through some of L.A.'s gang underworld. It's that kind of movie.
