By Adam Bankhurst

Note: With the announcement that Keanu Reeves is playing a character in Cyberpunk 2077 this week, we thought it was the right time to revisit these stories of him as the best person of all time …

Keanu Reeves, who is known around the world for his performances in such films as John Wick and The Matrix, also seems to be a pretty amazing human being, because another story describing him as a good Samaritan has been revealed.

In March, Yahoo! Entertainment reported that Keanu Reeves was on a United flight that had landed in Bakersfield, California. He had previously taken the initiative to help with logistics and help himself and other passengers to get to their final destination, Los Angeles.

Reeves and other passengers, including game developer Amir Blum, Reeves ended up taking a pickup truck in Los Angeles and read the facts about Bakersfield, played some music and seemed to make the most of a bad situation.

Brian Rea, on his Instagram story kept by a Twitter user @keanusgf, Chronicle of his trip and others with Keanu Reeves, which you can see below.

In honor of this story, which was not the first of Reeves, we decided to look at four more stories of kindness perpetrated by the one and only Keanu Reeves.

Keanu Reeves helps an Octavia Spencer failed

Shortly after Oscar-winning actress Octavia Spencer left Alabama to settle in Los Angeles, her car broke down while she was traveling to the city. One of his first auditions.

S addressing Meredith Vieira during her talk show, she explained how a motorcycle man had stopped to help, who happened to be Keanu Reeves.

"Nobody helped me because my car was dirty. I had parked my car under a tree so the birds had a day on the ground and I never washed, "recalls Spencer. "This is not before Keanu. Reeves came. He was on a motorcycle, wearing his helmet and his sunglasses and I did not know it was him when he stopped. And he was like, "Hey, do you need help?"

Reeves pushed Spencer's car on the side of the road, and she remembers very well of being "mortified" that Keanu had to touch his dirty car.

"I was so mortified. I thought, "Oh no, he's going to touch my car!" And I looked horrible, I had a shirt with holes, I did not wear underwear. So, to this day, I go to his movie every opening weekends, because it was a beautiful thing to do. But I will never remind him of that moment because when I say that I look disgusting, I do not want this memory to come back to him. "

Keanu Reeves the silent philanthropist

Another example of Keanu Reeves' good deeds is linked to her generous donations to multiple causes, including the purchase of a home for her mother and the management of a private foundation that benefits cancer research and hospitals for children.

He would also have dropped the "points" that pay an actor after the release of a movie to ensure that Matrix's special effects and costume departments have everything they need to make the best movie possible.

That's not all, because Reeves is known for his pay cuts so he can play with other actors, such as Al Pacino in The Devil's Advocate and Gene Hackman in The Replacements.

Keanu Reeves and homeless man

In 1997, paparazzi captured a photo of Keanu Reeves coming out with a homeless man in Hollywood. They shared drinks and snacks and he apparently stayed a little while to listen to this man's stories and simply enjoy the day.

We do not know much about this story, but it's another example of Keanu Reeves taking the time to help others.

Keanu in the rain

With glory comes power, but Keanu has proven that he does not always abuse that power, even for his own party.

The night of the wraparound evening mentioned above for Daughter of God, there was confusion and instead of letting Keanu fight his way to the front line, he waited in the rain for 20 minutes in a row because "he did not want to make a scene."

The club owner had no idea what was going on and said, "I did not know he was waiting for a long time, and he did not tell me anything." a very relaxed person. "

That's not all, because later that same evening, he spoke to the microphone to announce that he had found someone's credit card and that it came from see it to get it back.

These are just a few stories from the legend of Keanu Reeves, and although each of us may not know when Keanu Reeves will show up when we need him the most, we know we can all see him in John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum to the poster on May 17, 2019.
