During a chat with PEOPLE, the John Wick star said, "The films that we did together, the Bill & Ted films, the language in those films had the architecture and their rhythms.”

Winter shared that he and Reeves "wanted to work together" as they have "known each other a very long time,” which makes them fit for "a play about two people who have known each other a very long time. ... And Keanu had this crazy, inspired idea that suddenly turned into reality, for both of us."
