A sweet interaction between Keanu Reeves and a young fan at an international airport is going viral: “The man could not have been nicer.”
Legendary The Matrix actor, Keanu Reeves absolutely made a kid’s day at an airport this week, and a TV producer who happened to be there caught the whole thing!
Whilst waiting at the baggage claim after getting off an international flight, Keanu Reeves was hit with a series of rapid-fire questions from a very excited young fan who ran into him. And according to TV producer, Andrew Kimmel, the Hollywood star happily answered every single one, like the “class act” we’ve always known he is!
“Keanu Reeves was on my flight from London to NYC today,” wrote Kimmel on Twitter. “A young boy asked for an autograph at baggage & then began to fire off a series of rapid-fire questions. Keanu happily responded to every single one…” What a sweetie!
He continued, “the man could not have been nicer, especially after an international flight. I thought I’d share this because the dude is a class act and little moments like this can make such a big difference in people’s lives. We need more Keanus!”
Agreed!

Lucky for us, Andrew Kimmel posted the entire convo thread he witnessed between Keanu and the young fan on Twitter. Not only was Keanu an absolute legend and a great sport throughout the entire interaction, but the actor started firing back a bunch of questions of his own when the kid started running out!
Check out their impromptu little interview below:
Kid: Why were you in London?
KR: Filming a documentary.
Kid: I saw online you were at the Grand Prix (pronouncing the x)
KR: Yes, the Grand Prix (in a French accent, without correcting him). F1! Race cars!
Kid: Do you drive?
KR: Not F1, but I like riding motorcycles.
