When I look at Johnny’s concept art. All I see is Brandon lee and the possibilities.

    What possibilities were you thinking OP, because I may have some bad news for you 🙁

    The game is already sad enough, fucking quit man.

    i love keanu, one of my fav actors period, but kinda wish we had this johnny

    or keanus gorgeous face and an actual professional voice actor…

    Thank you for making think about something I hadn’t thought about in decades. Yet another reminder that we’re in the darkness timeline. You’re a bastard.

  6. Jonny originally was a drug addict and completely insane as well

  7. Since I found out Silverhand’s original design/character was [loosely] based on David Bowie I can’t stop thinking about how fucking sick it would’ve been if he played Silverhand in the game. I’m sure he would’ve loved it as well.

    I’ll be honest, I prefer this design as opposed to Keanu Reeves but with sunglasses. Looks like a guy who has seen some shit.

    I really dislike how cyberpunk uses celebrities for publicity. Keanu was generally good but most of them are shit

    Reminds me of Andrew Eldritch from the Sisters Of Mercy in the 80s

    I kind of wonder who they would have cast as Johnny if they kept the OG blonde look from the TTRPG. Alexander Skarsgard might have been interesting.

    I get having them use Keanu as him in the game, but I kind of wish they didn’t use his likeness because I bet everyone would have a much different opinion of him if he was that first pic and not Keanu

  13. Mordkillius

    You mean Scott Weiland from Stone Temple Pilots?

  14. As a friend of mine once said, the reason Keanu Reeves had the career he did is because Brandon Lee died first. (Absolutely no disrespect to Keanu, but you can see that Lee had that same star power but with more charisma, even in some awful early movies like Laser Mission)

    This makes me think their first choice for Johnny Silverhand was actually Nick Cage..

  16. Socially_Aware321

    I don’t see Brandon Lee even a little bit.

  17. Tommy Wiseau Johnny would have been hilarious.

    You’re tearing me apart Smasher!

  18. Ligeia_E

    Did they decide to not go with blonde Johnny in the first place?

  19. TheCupcakeScrub

    Tbh i dont like it.

    Idk something about his face feels…. offffff….

    Maybe im too use to reeves version but i think a beards in order.

  20. Vox_Mortem

    Looks more like Nick Cave to me, but then he’d need to have a red right hand, not a silver one.

  21. I generally dislike Keanu performance. Johnny is too Keanu to me. Like in Matrix he’s a fucking Neo not Keanu. But here. Damn I see only the guy that said breathtaking once. It’s immersion breaking.

  22. Lurid-Jester

    Kind of reminds me of a young Glen Danzig.

  23. RebornDuke

    The scarred up Johnny looks fuckin DOPE!

  24. TheMightyJohnFu

    Man it would of been great to have someone other than Keanu. Great guy, but his delivery of his lines is so poor and cringey a lot of the time. Really takes you out of the moment. It really shows in John Wick 4 too.

  25. GulianoBanano

    Now that I think about, it’s kinda weird we mever saw a shirtless Johnny in the game. The guy is the lead singer in an anti-establishment metal band for fuck’s sake. Those guys take off their shirts on stage so much.

  26. Lea Leonowicz did a terrific job creating Evelyn and Johnny. Both concepts emanate perfect Cyberpunk like looks. Too bad someone decided the characters have to be like in hollywood movies and created these too beautiful/spotless to be a cyberpunk character kinda visage to them.

    I just see Maynard James Keenan circa Aenima in that concept art.
