Keanu Reeves

Keanu Reeves (born September 2, 1964) is a Canadian actor. Reeves is known for his roles in Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure, Speed, Point Break, and The Matrix trilogy as Neo. He has collaborated with major directors such as Stephen Frears (in the 1988 period drama Dangerous Liaisons); Gus Van Sant (in the 1991 independent film My Own Private Idaho); and Bernardo Bertolucci (in the 1993 film Little Buddha).

Reeves, whose first name means "cool breeze over the mountains" in Hawaiian, was born in Beirut, Lebanon, the son of Patricia Bond, an English-born showgirl, and Samuel Nowlin Reeves, Jr. His father, a Hawaiian-born American, was of English, Native Hawaiian, Portuguese, Scottish, 1/32 Chinese, and extremely remote Dutch, French and Italian ancestry

The 1999 science fiction-action hit The Matrix, a film in which Reeves had a starring role, was a box office success and attracted positive reviews. The Matrix was followed by two successful sequels in 2003. On January 31, 2005, Reeves received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. A multifaceted artist, Reeves worked with illustrator Alexandra Grant to author a book, Ode to Happiness. He has also produced a documentary, Side by Side; and directed the film Man of Tai Chi (2013). (Wikipedia)
