As if it needed to be said, Keanu Reeves is an exceptionally good person.Unless you’ve been hiding, you’ve undoubtedly already heard the stories and seen the footage.

You’ll see that Keanu Reeves, despite his fame, wealth, and incalculable reputation, is a humble, kind, and compassionate human being.

It seems like every few months, Reeves does something new to remind us that he is the model for A-list celebrities who put the needs of others above their own and whose actions demonstrate a real concern for the well-being of their fellow citizens.

The Oscar-winning screenwriter and director Reeves has just shown his mettle as a comic book writer.

He and Matt Kindt co-created and co-wrote BRZRKR, which in 2015 had the most selling single issue of a comic book since Star Wars.

A young fan of the series, all of nine years old, recently approached Keanu at a book signing to inform him that he was his “favourite actor” from the Matrix films. Keanu said what? As nutritious as you’d hope, at least…

When your fame is as brilliant as Keanu Reeves’, it’s reasonable to assume that you don’t go very many days without being approached by someone who wants you to take their photo or sign their signature.

 

Observing Keanu interact with his fans, you’d never guess that the constant attention becomes old after a while.

It seems to reason that having people always wanting what you have to offer will eventually wear you down.

The 58-year-old has often shown his huge heart and compassion throughout the years. Consider the time he patiently responded to a little boy’s barrage of inquiries at the end of a long trip.

Remember when Sandra Bullock said he surprised her with champagne and truffles after she told him she’d never had either before?

We could go on indefinitely. The point is that Keanu Reeves is a great guy, so it’s not surprising that he got back on Twitter after chatting with a young admirer.

Reeves allegedly was approached by the young fan during a book signing, when the youngster enthusiastically said, “I’m such a big fan!”

 

In a video provided by IGN, Reeves can be heard asking the kid his name. Keanu makes an unnecessary introduction by calling himself “Noah” when the nine-year-old calls for him.

“I think you’re the best actor in the world!” What Noah in the video says. Keanu’s face suddenly breaks out in a wide grin. He exclaims, “Oh my gosh, Noah, thank you!”

A short time later, the 58-year-old actor inquired of his little fan whether he had seen Duke Caboom, the doll whose voice Reeves provided in Doll Story 4. Yes, I consider him to be my favourite figure. As a result, Noah is able to respond.

Keanu is both passionate and polite in his interactions. Fans of the John Wick actor are eager to point out that he appears to like talking to people as much as they enjoy talking to him.

People often say that you shouldn’t meet your heroes, but we believe it’s acceptable to make an exception for Keanu.
