When Stephen Colbert dug the soul of Keanu Reeves
The main character in ‘The Matrix Resurrections‘ was subjected to a round of ‘The Colbert Questionert’. ‘The Late Show’ had prepared an intriguing set of questions to get to know Reeves better. The rapid-fire questioning became interesting because we all know Reeves is anything but sincere.
For questions like “Cats or dogs”? The actor answered Dogs, but he is coming around on cats as well. For another question: “What is your favourite sandwich”? Keanu was fast to say toast with crunchy peanut butter and honey.

The questions got interesting later, out of which one was, “Did you ever ask for someone’s autograph”. Keanu answered Lou Reed.
“It was like a little piece of paper and blue ink. Yeah, it was good”, Reeves said. “It just said, ‘Lou Reed’”. When Colbert mentioned how disappointing it would have been if it had not read Lou Reed, Reeves joked that it could have said “all my best” or “happy holidays”.
Keanu then revealed that he once asked comedian George Carlin for an autograph. He thought it was really funny because Carlin wrote: ‘Dear Keanu, f**you’.

Reeves’ response demonstrates why he is Hollywood’s most popular actor. When asked about his favourite action film, he gave an answer that no one could argue with. He mentioned ‘Rollerball’. A 1975 film starring James Caan is a must-see for fans of the action genre. Joy Division’s ‘Love Will Tear Us Apart’ is the song he would listen to for the rest of his life.
