Could Keanu kill Phil Mitchell? EastEnders star Danny Walters: ‘We still don’t know what Keanu is really capable of’
We've all been thinking Keanu is the one in danger, but might it be the other way round?
EastEnders fans have been predicting that Phil Mitchell will kill Keanu Taylor when he discovers the young mechanic has been having an affair with his wife, Sharon. However, might there be a massive twist in the tale? Could Keanu be the one doing the bumping off?
Speaking to The Sun, Danny Walters reveals we could be about to see a darker side to Keanu and perhaps he might not be the push over Phil imagines. Keanu has certainly shown his passionate side - could that cause him to be violent in defence of the lady he loves?
Talking about the probably clash with Phil, Danny Walters said: “There’s a lot at stake and they both know the repercussions and they’re both very aware of what they’re doing.
“There’s still a lot to find out about Keanu with his background and we still don’t know what Keanu is really capable of.
“We do know Phil Mitchell’s reputation but we don’t know Keanu’s reputation in full yet.”
Wow, perhaps Phil better watch out! And Danny added that Keanu was so in love with Sharon “he’s not thinking straight, he’s not thinking logically”.
