Keanu Reeves Proves Once Again He’s ‘Nicest Man In Hollywood’ With Gesture To Fan

It seems there are a million stories out there about times Keanu Reeves was a top bloke, and none about times he was a prick – so you have to think, he probably is a top bloke.

In fact, the actor is often labelled the 'nicest guy in Hollywood', and he never seems to disappoint when interacting with fans.

In his latest viral heartwarming shenanigans, the Matrix star fielded a tonne of questions from a young fan at an airport, as well as signing autographs and posing for pictures.

TV producer Andrew Kimmel was on the same flight from London to New York City, and upon touching down in the Big Apple, he watched on in admiration as Reeves calmly responded to a barrage of questions from the eager fan.

Sharing a snap of the star alongside the kid, Andrew tweeted: "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…"

Andrew then took the time to recall how exactly the interrogation went down.

He tweeted: "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.

"Kid: Do you live in NY?

"KR: I live in LA.

"Kid: How long are you gonna be in New York?

"KR: Four days! No… five. Five days!

"Kid: Why are you in NY?

"KR: Gonna see a broadway show!

"Kid: What broadway show?

"KR: American Buffalo! Mamet!

"Kid: Where are you staying in NY?

"KR: Midtown!"

Eventually, the kid ran out of steam – at which point Keanu decided to turn the tables.

"By this time the kid was running out of questions, so Keanu started grilling him," Andrew recalled.

"Why were you in Europe? What galleries did you go to in Paris? What was your favourite?"

Andrew concluded the thread by showering praise on the star – and sharing the selfie he couldn't resist asking for.

He wrote: "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!"

Amen to that.
