Keanu Soto Reflects on Big Brother 27, Reveals Desire to Return This Winter for Big Brother 28 – “I’m not done yet. I still have a lot I want to accomplish — and this winter’s Big Brother 28 might be the moment I return.”
Keanu Soto’s dramatic journey on Big Brother 27 came to an end on Wednesday, September 24, but the former houseguest is already looking ahead — particularly toward the upcoming Big Brother 28 winter season, which is expected to feature several surprising twists and a strategic landscape unlike any before.
In his exit interview with Men’s Journal, Keanu reflected on his experience and the lessons he plans to carry into the next chapter. He admitted that his loyalty to Vince Panaro, despite repeated betrayals, ultimately cost him the game.
“It’s hard not to feel like maybe I shouldn’t have trusted him so much,” Keanu said. “But that’s who I am. I ride hard for my people, and if they mess up… none of us are perfect. I always try to forgive.”
Unfortunately, that loyalty did not translate into success.
“It felt like a sibling dynamic. I saw myself as his big brother, even though he’s slightly older. Maybe that was part of his gameplay — and shame on me for falling for it the 47th time,” he joked.
Keanu also acknowledged that oversharing information hurt his standing in the house.
“In there, information is currency. Rachel always said, ‘You’re hard to work with because you tell everyone everything.’ I should’ve held my cards closer instead of constantly trying to confirm rumors. I ignored my intuition — and it burned me.”
One of the most chaotic elements of his season was his turbulent partnership with former champion Rachel Reilly.
“Our Final Two was ‘frenemies’ for a reason,” he said. “One minute friends, the next minute enemies. At one point, I felt betrayed and wasn’t sure she cared about my game. But we mended things eventually — and I even found out she makes a killer lasagna. I’m getting that recipe after this.”
Despite his elimination, Keanu still keeps an eye on the remaining players. He believes Morgan Pope is currently in the strongest position, especially after her run of three consecutive veto wins. He also noted Vince has “the most to prove,” particularly in explaining his backstabbing if he wants a jury vote.
Looking Toward Big Brother 28
Keanu confirmed that he would love to return — possibly as soon as this winter. And rumors suggest that Big Brother 28 will arrive much sooner than expected, launching during the winter season later this year with a refreshed format.
