Downey has also completed work on A Scanner Darkly a film starring Keanu Reeves and directed by Richard
Linklater.
Synopsis: A Scanner Darkly is set in suburban Orange County, California in the future. It imagines a paranoid world in which it seems two of every 10 Americans has been hired by the government to spy on the other 8 -- in the name of national security and drug enforcement. When one reluctant government recruit (Reeves) is ordered to start spying on his friends, he is launched on a journey into the absurd, where outsourced government contractors largely define the social construct, where identities and loyalties are impossible to decode, and where not even his girlfriend can be trusted. The film highlights the inconsistencies and ironic consequences of the war on drugs.
Downey says its going to be nuts, off the hook and so fun and that Richard Linklater is an insanely great director.
