Keanu Reeves is one of the most human and wholesome celebrities in Hollywood. He is known for being a simple human being, he doesn’t live a lavish lifestyle, he stays down to earth, he keeps his emotions mostly to himself, he thinks before speaking.
Even though he has played the leading role in some of the most popular movies, including The Matrix franchise, what makes him unique is his simplistic nature and his pure love for humanity.
In one of his recent pure gestures of humanity, he called up someone’s grandmother, who was a massive fan of his – just to make her feel happy!
A Redditor, afdc92, shared her story on how he called her grandma:
“My grandmother had a crush on Keanu Reeves because he reminded her of my grandfather when he was young. Saw all his stuff, from Bill and Ted to the Matrix. She had a stroke in her early 70s and was pretty much housebound for the last 10 years of her life, so watching movies was her main hobby, and became almost like friends to her because she so rarely got to see any of her own.”
“Not too long after the Matrix came out my uncle was in LA for business and was eating at a really swanky restaurant when Keanu came in with a woman.”
“When he finished his meal my uncle came up to their table and said ‘I don’t usually do this, but I just wanted you to know that my 80-year-old mother loves you and has seen all of your movies. You remind her of my dad.'”
“He said Keanu asked if he had a cell phone on him and when he confirmed that he did, he said ‘Give her a call, I want to talk to her.’ He spoke with my grandmother for several minutes and it absolutely made her year. She was so isolated and his genuine kindness to her and interest in her showed what a truly amazing man he is.”
This genuine show of kindness and humanity indeed proves how amazing Keanu Reeves is – he didn’t think twice before asking to talk to the grandmother even though he was with someone at a restaurant, a pure soul if we’ve ever seen one!

Keanu Reeves, you visited Silver City, New Mexico many years ago and made my little sister Patsys wish come true. We don’t argue too much about things in this life except you. She calls you her husband and I like to pick on her and tell her you are my boyfriend. I find your big, heart full of love, compassion, and respect. But the greatest gift you possess is the love you share. Thank you for being a man of God’s work. God bless you always.
I just plainly adore him for such a long, long time…. He is a far cry compared to all celebrities with his golden heart & deeds. Pls visit Aruba, I promise to give him all the “DO NOT DISTURB” & peace during his stay. He will love our island. Thank you.
I love his movies and the fact that he is just a normal person.
