Biografie
Keanu Reeves is one of Hollywood's most sought-after leading men. His work has run the gamut from blockbusters such as Speed and the Matrix trilogy to comedies such as the very popular Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure and indies like My Own Private Idaho.
Reeves film credits include 47 Ronin, an 18th-century story centered on a band of samurai who set out to avenge the death of their master; Henry's Crime, which he also produced; Rebecca Miller's The Private Lives of Pippa Lee, alongside Robin Wright; sci-fi remake The Day the Earth Stood Still, opposite Jennifer Connelly; cop thriller Street Kings, co-starring Forest Whitaker; romantic drama The Lake House, with Sandra Bullock; the highly stylized blend of live action and animation A Scanner Darkly, co-starring Woody Harrelson; comic-book adaptation Constantine, opposite Rachel Weisz; and romantic comedy Something's Gotta Give, alongside Jack Nicholson and Diane Keaton. In 2013 Reeves made his directorial debut with Man of Tai Chi, which was shot entirely in China. Reeves not only directed the film, he also starred in it. More recently, he starred in Eli Roth's Knock, Knock, and in The Whole Truth, starring opposite Renée Zellweger.
The actor's long list of notable credits include an acclaimed performance in The Gift, opposite Cate Blanchett; Devil's Advocate, alongside Al Pacino and Charlize Theron; and Kathryn Bigelow's Point Break, with Patrick Swayze.
Additional film credits include Hardball, Generation Um, Thumbsucker, Sweet November, The Replacements, A Walk in the Clouds, Little Buddha, Much Ado about Nothing, Bram Stoker's Dracula, Johnny Mnemonic, Chain Reaction and Feeling Minnesota.
Raised in Toronto, Reeves performed on television and in various local theater productions before relocating to Los Angeles. His first widely acclaimed role was in Tim Hunter's River's Edge. He then starred in Marisa Silver's Permanent Record and joined Amy Madigan and Fred Ward in The Prince of Pennsylvania. He was then cast as the innocent Danceny in Stephen Frears' highly praised Dangerous Liaisons, alongside Glenn Close, John Malkovich and Michelle Pfeiffer. He joined other outstanding casts that year in Ron Howard's ensemble comedy Parenthood and Lawrence Kasdan's I Love You to Death.
In the fall of 2013, the Reeves-produced documentary Side by Side made its theatrical and VOD debut to critical acclaim. The documentary, which explores the history of filmmaking and the impact of new digital technology, premiered at the Berlin International Film Festival. In the film (directed by Chris Kenneally) Keanu interviewed some of Hollywood's key players, including James Cameron, David Fincher, David Lynch, George Lucas, Danny Boyle, Martin Scorsese, Christopher Nolan, Steven Soderbergh, Lars von Trier and the Wachowski siblings.
