The year 2019 seems to be Keanu Reeves’ year.
He have been so successful so far for the past 12 months that fans even dubbed 2019 the ‘Keanussance’.
He has always been praised as an actor but more recently he is gaining attention as a top bloke and he is a very special man who must be protected at all costs.
The actor has also been the subject of much praise over on Twitter recently, where people have started sharing anecdotes of his altruism to prove just how great a guy he is – like the time where Reeves bought an ice cream he didn’t want, just so he could sign his autograph on the receipt for a 16-year-old kid.
He was also widely praised for not laying his hands on women whenever they ask for a picture with the John Wick star. Such a gentleman and a person who respects physical boundaries.
But where’s all this recent attention come from? Sure, there’s no denying it’s deserved, but he hardly a new kid on the block.
Keanu is a seasoned star with movie credits stretching back across three decades.
Keanu had his breakthrough in acting back in the late 80s and early 90s, when he starred in films like Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure (and its 1990 sequel, Bill & Ted’s Bogus Journey), Parenthood, Point Break and My Own Private Idaho.
