‘Bill & Ted 3′ script is finished. Excellent!

Get those air guitars ready, Wyld Stallyns fans!

While promoting his new documentary "Side by Side," actor Keanu Reeves told The Independent that the long-awaited third installment of the "Bill & Ted" saga finally has a finished script. Is no 1980s property safe from the reboot/sequel mill?

"Yeah, we have a script. We're trying to put it together. It's a good script, too," said Reeves, who played the dimwitted Ted in 1989's time trip "Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure" and its sequel.

When asked about Reeves' comment on Twitter, co-star Alex Winter (who played, naturally, Bill S. Preston Esq.) tweeted a confirmation: "Script done? Check. -We love it? Check. -Green light? Working on it!"

For those who don't recall (or were born after) the duo's adventures through time and space, Bill & Ted are a pair of rad dudes from San Dimas, California whose music is destined to unite the world. Equipped with a time-travelling phone booth and some help from the mysterious Rufus (George Carlin), the friends survived the history test from hell and an actual trip to hell in the original two films. The new film will reportedly catch up with the now middle-aged pair as they struggle to write the song that will change history.

To add more fuel to the "Bill & Ted 3" fires, just this week, the film's official Facebook page teased several big announcements in the coming days, and announced the launch of an official Bill & Ted 3 Twitter account. They may not have the green light yet, but Reeves and Winter seem close to making their long-gestating film a reality. Party on, dudes.

American, British and EU officials visited the Gulf state last week as part of a wider coordinated effort to prevent sanctioned goods from reaching Russia, a British foreign secretary spokesperson said, declining further comment. The sources said the officials asked the UAE in a series of separate meetings to share detailed trade information on its exports to Russia and on the re-export of so-called dual-use goods that have both civilian and military purposes.

  • Canadian factory PMI falls in April as downturn hits one year

    Canadian manufacturing activity slowed in April, extending a lengthy period of contraction for the sector, as output and new orders fell at an accelerated pace and inflation pressures picked up, data showed on Wednesday. The S&P Global Canada Manufacturing Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) fell to a seasonally adjusted 49.4 in April from 49.8 in March, staying below the 50 threshold for the 12th straight month, the longest such stretch in data going back to October 2010. "April's survey data revealed another relatively subdued performance of Canada's manufacturing sector, with both output and new orders both falling since March – and perhaps most disappointedly at slightly faster rates," Paul Smith, economics director at S&P Global Market Intelligence, said in a statement.
