You Won’t Believe How Keanu Reeves Reacted When a 9-Year-Old Praised Him
|If it wasn’t already clear, Keanu Reeves is a really, really good person.
Unless you haven’t been paying attention, you’ve probably heard the stories and seen the videos. You know that even though he’s a huge star, has millions of dollars, and is incredibly famous, Reeves stays humble and kind. He never acts like he’s too important to show compassion.
Every few months, Reeves does something new that reminds us he sets the bar high for celebrities. He’s always thinking of others and shows that he genuinely cares about people.
Reeves is famous for his roles in blockbuster movies, but lately, he’s also been involved in comic book writing. He co-created and co-wrote the series *BRZRKR* with Matt Kindt, which became the biggest-selling comic issue since *Star Wars* in 2015.
At a recent book signing, a nine-year-old fan of the comic series went up to Keanu to tell him that he was his “favorite actor.” How did Keanu respond?
Well, it’s just as heartwarming as you’d expect…
When you’re as famous as Keanu Reeves, it’s safe to say that almost every day, someone wants to take a photo with you or ask for your autograph.
We can imagine that this might get tiring sometimes. After all, having people always wanting your attention can wear you out. But you’d never guess that by watching how Keanu treats his fans.
Over the years, Keanu, who is now 58, has shown his kindness and big heart many times. For example, there was the time he answered a boy’s many questions with patience and kindness after a long flight. Or the time Sandra Bullock shared that he surprised her with champagne and truffles when she told him she’d never tried them before.
There are many more stories like these. The point is, Keanu Reeves is truly a good person. So, it’s not surprising that he’s going viral again after a sweet moment with a nine-year-old fan.
According to reports, this young boy met Keanu at a book signing event. The boy told Keanu, “I’m such a big fan!”
In a video shared by IGN, you can hear Keanu asking the boy for his name. When the boy says his name is “Noah,” Keanu introduces himself too (even though everyone knows who he is).
“You’re probably my favorite actor in the whole world!” Noah says in the video.
Keanu smiles widely and says, “Oh my gosh, Noah, thank you!”
The actor then gave Noah a little quiz, asking if he had seen Duke Caboom, the toy character that Keanu voiced in *Toy Story 4*.
“Yeah, he’s my favorite character!” Noah replies.

It’s not just Keanu’s politeness that stands out in these moments; it’s also his genuine enthusiasm. Fans have pointed out that the *John Wick* star always seems just as happy to talk to his fans as they are to talk to him.
People often say you should never meet your idols, but we think it’s okay to ignore that advice when it comes to Keanu.
