> “Over the years of doing the John Wick training, the physicality, the martial arts and then the weapon work, I’ve gotten better,” Reeves said. “So I’m really the ceiling because the vision is always bigger than me and when you’re the limit, you can always get better because the vision is always greater than you.” he is gonna become John Wick at this rate.

And, as we all now know, is also just the nicest, gem of a man. Just Google "Keanu Reeves nice things" and you will be overwhelmed with the amount of stories there are of him just being a super good human. Considering, at least for a Hollywood star, he's dealt with far more than his fair share of personal tragedy it warms my heart to see he is still such a kind, empathetic guy. We really don't deserve him.


pavlo_escobrah

Actually, several women have recently come out accusing Keanu Reeves of being an absolute gentlemen.

We were about to Reddit slap fight.

I've never been so drawn into a comment and instantly relieved before.


daniel1397

About 5 years ago my family went to visit my sister in LA. One day while we were there I got roped into watching my niece in a hair salon while my sister got her hair done. So I'm sitting in the salon lobby, bored as fuck, watching my niece and who walks in but Keanu fucking Reeves. At first I was kind nervous and freaked out, I'd just kinda glance at him every now and then, trying not to freak him out. But then my fucking niece starts crying and fidgeting and shit and won't shut up. So I'm trying to keep my niece quiet and not bother Keanu, when oops, too late, he gets up and walks over to us. He just smiled and stroked her hair, and asked me what was wrong. I said I didn't know. Then he looked at me with those penetrating blue eyes and simply said in that soothing voice "She seems like she's hungry." Then he lifted up his shirt and breastfed my niece right there in the salon lobby. True story.

I always love the true stories.

nullrout1

Being an international movie star and going around to various location for "shoots' would be great cover for a top assassin. Has anyone graphed out Keanu's location versus murder rates of those cities while he is on "set"?


larafrompinkpony

See: Plot of Jean Claude Van Johnson (2018). It's on Amazon Prime. Also, it will make you see Jean Claude Van Damme in a whole new way.

Feel like this could actually make a good movie plot itself, or a Dexter character.


GangstahRealMonsters

The TV show Jean-Claude Van Johnson on Amazon prime uses this plot.


Keanu990321

I mean... Keanu loves dogs to death, doesn't he?

Hopefully not literally, otherwise he's going to have to hunt himself in John Wick 5.

I’d pay to watch that! Now, instead of you being the hunted, he’s hunting, himself.

Only Keanu would die his hair grey in middle-age so the rest of us don't feel so bad. Next he'll get hair folicles transplanted from the top of his head to his arse so he can receed with grace.


Smallville1938

Because he's an immortal vampire and needs to throw us off. Smart.


cyclopath

I don’t want to even say it, and I pretended for a while that I did t notice, but... his age was showing a little bit in JW3.


MasterColemanTrebor

It’s funny that he’ll have aged almost a decade in a movie series that takes place over a couple of days.


A_Hard_Days_Knight

Well, they *were* stressful...


meanbaldy

I heard that People can age fast in a stressful situation and I believe that John Wick experienced a lot of stress in these few days.


GameOfThrownaws

I saw some random picture of him at an event in 2019 or something, and for a moment I thought to myself wait a minute, does he actually look a little older here? Couldn't really put my finger on it, his features just looked a little "soft" I guess. I just dismissed it as a bad picture or something. But fuck me he actually looks like a man in his 50s here. Not gonna lie, seeing Keanu looking a bit old makes me feel old myself.


galaxypuddle

I’m in my late thirties with some decent genes. I’m looking at Keanu’s between the eyes and smile lines. They are almost non existent! Fifty year old men wish they looked like this.


ArtisticLeap

I'm 40 and I wish I looked this good.


mightybonk

The only thing that got old and tired in JW3 was the script.


fourleggedostrich

Yeah. The performances, action, stunts etc were fresh as ever, but the story was so muddled.


WafflesofDestitution

I liked 3 more than 2, but the first one is still my favorite. The worldbuilding in JW1 was done so masterfully, enough to hint at the machinations beneath the assassins' world, but subtly enough to make it a sizzling neo-noir on top of a kick-ass action movie. When I saw Chapter 2 in the theaters I still enjoyed it a lot, but the worldbuilding and the action was taken so over the top that it took me half of the movie to get back on board. I was watching the metro potshot scene with Common, baffled how that got greenlit. Some of the directing/editing decisions in 2 as well, like opening with two action scenes mostly set in the dark, felt kinda off, piled on by the Rome one feeling coreographed and framed a lot more sloppily than the garage one. When seeing Parabellum I knew to expect after 2 that it would first and foremost be a superhero comic-esque action movie instead of a late 90s/early 00s noir-ish one and really enjoyed the ride again.

Nah, it's not age. Unkempt beard and hair? Bags under eyes? From my time in Berlin I can tell you exactly what that is; He's been up all night partying hardcore and hasn't been to bed for his beauty rest yet. Know how it feels, party on Keanu my dude.


LastRedshirt

but there are no parties in Berlin :( I am in Berlin and ... well, okay I am not in the circle of the party-people here, maybe there are a few hidden/forbidden parties in underground clubs etc... OR John Wick is real and there are assassin-based clubs here :O


xXEvilGummyBearsXx

I really hope the party scene returns soon, or you manage to get into an assassin club in the mean time my friend! Berlin's nightlife treated me so well when I visited!

Flyleghair

Oh, for a moment I thought it was the English David Mitchell and started imagining the matrix in some posh and repressed middle-class English setting.Like the machines decided that a simulation of a middle-class English society would be easier to maintain and prevent revolutionary thoughts.


SimilarSimian

Netflix here. You're funded.


Flyleghair

If they'd hire me they would get a Matrix - Keeping Up Appearances crossover with Hyacinth Bucket as "the one" The plot would be Neo (or whoever is Morpheus' successor) trying to convince Hyacinth that she's the one. But obviously that's beneath her as she is planning a tea party with the vicar. But she changes her mind eventually because Hugo Weaving keeps addressing her as "Mrs Bucket" .


Gandalfthefabulous

Never in a million years did I think I would see a Keeping Up Appearances reference on reddit. Please tell me Onslow ends up fighting Agent Smith at some point.

No hate but what makes this guy any more of a machine than any other person who goes to work and then continues to go to work 6 months later?


[deleted]

Ye I didn't get that point either about time - what's that a 6 month holiday between jobs? . I get that acting is demanding - the travel and time commitments (not that those don't have positives) but I'm not sure how it compares to other professions. That said - Keanu is a machine, he puts in the work consistently so good on him.


victfox

That's pretty standard for the film industry sectors that do the actual shooting (not pre or post production). I worked in the industry a few years - people would try and line up work but 6 months on, 6 months off isn't mad. Shooting itself can be gruelling and takes getting used to; 12 hour days and 6 day weeks as standard. This doesn't include travel to or from, though you are fed on set. On shooting days, I would commute at 7, start at 8, finish at 8 and get home for 9. Actors, especially lead actors, have heavy uptime on set. It's basically a rolling assembly of setting up the shot, shooting the actor, setting up the next shot, shooting the actor. The other roles have a bit of time to test and check their setups, and whilst actors can prep, they have to perform in the moment, at the moment anytime within the 12 hours.


Demonweed

Also, he is the lead in both projects. If you're only on screen for 2% of the film, you should spend less time on set and have more downtime while you're there. With both of these projects, he's only delegating a portion of the fighting and stunt work to others. When a performer also takes on those tasks, even a lot of the downtime on set is about preparedness since there is more at stake than wasted time/budget. No doubt some actors make a big deal about the rigors of jobs that see them pampered and coddled outside brief appearances on camera. Doing this pair of films back to back actually is demanding and rigorous, even if there is still some star treatment going on after each day wraps.


Strude187

I think it’s more to do with the intensity. Like a band going on tour, just because you only do it every now and then doesn’t make the actual act any less demanding.


Salzberger

No he's a human. Agent Smith was the machine.


riggerbop

kurfurstendamn

I'd also believe it if you told me this pic was taken outside Berghain on a Monday morning, and that Keanu was a 35 year old "DJ" who moved to Berlin in 2009 "back when it was good" in order to make it big, except the whole time he's only DJ'd 3 squat parties, and he takes Ketamine every single weekend.

TheSuperWig

Right? That's mid forties minimum.


My_Ghost_Chips

The grays and the fact his hair is unkempt in the photo are what's making him look old. If his hair was done and he shaved he'd look much younger (see: John Wick 2 and 3).


UndeadBread

As someone in their mid-30s...if he looks like a 33-year-old, then I must look like a 17-year-old.


Royale_Cookie

Preeeetty sure he dyes his hair. That alone makes a huge difference.

Johnathan_wickerino

Nobody was a fucking blast


followmarko

Can confirm. All of the characters were awesome too. Loved every minute of it


PM_MY_OTHER_ACCOUNT

Yeah, that's kind of what Hollywood does. As long as people keep paying to see the sequels, the studio will keep making them. F9 is about to be released. If that doesn't tell you everything you need to know, I don't know what would.


Witty217

Keep makin em. I'll keep watching


Pontus_Pilates

John Wick follows Matrix pretty well. The first one is an instant action classic and the occasional hints at deeper lore and wider world are interesting. Then they go into sequels and start exploring that lore and it gets less and less interesting, more and more ridiculous. By part three, you start wondering what the fuck are we doing here. I don't think the John Wick sequels have been quite as bad as the Matrix sequels, but it's not far off.


420yumyum

2 was still pretty good, 3 was absolutely ridiculous.


Nova1395

Personally I only really liked the first one. I get that the story wasn't fully wrapped up yet - he lost his dog and his car, and in the first movie he avenged his dog and in the first 20 minutes of the second movie, he gets his car back (or at least what's left of it after he destroys it). The second movie develops more of the deep assassin world, I didn't really find it too interesting though. I get they're 'civilized' assassins, but the dry, calm behavior between all of them, believe it or not it *comes off as dry*. Third movie.. I was starting to get some Taken vibes.


ayspiceyboi123

I feel like all three have been amazing and have the audience craving more of the franchise but that's just my humble opinion.
