[Watch] Keanu Reeves Makes Duke Caboom Debut For ‘Toy Story 4’

Keanu Reeves will quickly tear by way of NYC streets on a motorbike in John Wick: Chapter 3 — Parabellum (releasing on May 17), however there’s one other scrumptious, bike-bound dose of “whoa!” coming to theaters this summer time. That can be Reeves’ Toy Story 4 character, Duke Caboom, who could have secretly appeared as an Incredibles 2 Easter egg that everybody missed. Duke is now making his official Toy Story franchise debut in a front-and-center method.

In the above TV spot, Duke zooms into view as a grasp Canadian stuntsman showing in a spoofed business that performs very similar to the exaggerated toy adverts of yesteryear. Behind the swagger, although, Duke Caboom is extra advanced (and susceptible) than he seems. This character description from Disney may pull at your heartstrings like this franchise likes to do:

DUKE CABOOM (voice of Keanu Reeves) is a 1970s toy primarily based on Canada’s best stuntman. Riding his highly effective Caboom stunt-cycle, Duke is all the time ready to point out off his stunt poses with confidence and swagger. However, Woody learns rapidly that Duke has an Achilles heel: he has by no means been in a position to do the superior stunts marketed in his personal toy business. For years, Duke has been sitting in an vintage retailer, continuously reliving the failures of his tragic previous.

Reeves’s voice, in fact, will seem alongside these of Tom Hanks, Tim Allen, Joan Cusack, Don Rickles, Annie Potts, Jeff Pidgeon, Michael Keaton, Tony Hale, Keegan-Michael Key, and Jordan Peele, and extra.

Toy Story 4 opens on June 21 — the identical day because the Woody-killing Child’s Play reboot. Counterprogramming at its best.
