When the Hollywood star rob lowe came here to shoot Hot Man, he appeared in the film. Then, at the age of 20, he took the only $3,000 with him and drove his first car, A1969 Volov, to Los Angeles.

His father Samuel Noreen Reeves was a geologist and a Hawaiian of China, Irish, British, Portuguese and Hawaiian descent. Mother Patricia is an Englishman with Anglo-German ancestry.

They divorced soon after they were born in keanu reeves. Soon, mother Patricia and Reeves and her sister Kim moved to new york. In new york, she married Broadway director paul allen and her family moved to Toronto. A year later, the family broke up again. Later, her mother married two husbands, and Keanu Reeves spent her childhood in constant moving and turbulence. The pronunciation of "Keanu" is key-an-oo, which comes from Hawaiian dialect. In Hawaiian dialect, the name "Keanu" means "cool breeze on the mountain". It is really like a cool mountain breeze, which injected a fresh breath into the film industry in the 1990s.
Because stepfather paul allen is a director, there are often stars in their family. Long-term contact with the entertainment circle made keanu reeves interested in performance. 65,438+06 years old, entered the entertainment circle with a Coca-Cola advertisement. At the age of 65,438+07, he decided to be an actor and turned to the development of performing arts.
1985, he came to Los Angeles and went to Hollywood, which he yearned for. 1986, he starred in the film (Hot-blooded Youth), which brought Keanu $3,000 for his first official job in Hollywood. From 65438 to 0987, Keanu's role as a rebellious teenager in Riverside attracted the attention of directors and critics. 1989, Keanu quickly got a role in The Extraordinary Adventures of Bill and Ted. This is a light comedy full of fantasy. In this film, he plays a young guitarist who is on cloud nine. When he first made his debut, he played the boy like a "son of nature" and was amiable. From then on, keanu reeves gradually became known, became an idol of American teenagers, and got the chance to star in the historical film Dangerous Liaisons. In keanu reeves's films, Dangerous Contact was a great success, which made keanu reeves, who played a supporting role in the film, become famous and established his position in Hollywood.
At the same time, keanu reeves also began to try to broaden his career. In 1989' s Parents and 199 1' s I Love You to Die, he showed a calm and elegant performance style, and in "Discovering", he once again. Although not popular, it also shows his potential in this respect. 199 1 participated in the filming of My Own Private Idaho directed by Garth Van Sant, which is a gay movie. During this period, he began to try a variety of performance styles to prove his versatility. In particular, in 1992, keanu reeves played a supporting role in Coppola's famous vampire film Dracula of the snapper. Although keanu reeves didn't play the leading role in this film, his performance in the film left a deep impression on people. During this period, keanu reeves became popular in Hollywood. 1993 Keanu was "hand-picked" by the famous Italian director Bertucci and played the leading role of Prince Siddhartha in his film Little Buddha. This is a very difficult role. In order to play this role well, he also specially read many Buddhist books and lost weight. Perhaps it is a quarter of keanu reeves's oriental ancestry that makes him born with an extremely pure temperament, which makes him a good candidate to play "Little Buddha". Keanu reeves's performance in this film was not extremely successful, but it was quite good, and he began to attract people's attention.
Little Buddha stills 1994 Keanu reached the peak of his acting career, and his low-budget action film Speed earned 1.2 1 billion dollars at the box office. The film was directed by the famous Dutch photographer Yang Dibang. Keanu Reeves was almost always in a state of exhaustion: first, he saved the people trapped in the high-speed elevator of the skyscraper, then he performed jumping and drilling under the car and flew over the viaduct with the heroine sandra bullock until the hero finally saved the Americans. The image of keanu reeves in the film rewrites the tradition of "mature middle age" of Hollywood heroes. He is witty, agile and has a handsome face. The success of Speed also pushed his momentum to the peak.
After Speed, Keanu played a computer librarian in Johnny May monique, and keanu reeves's performance in the film was even ridiculed as "more like a robot than a robot" because the whole film was made sloppily. Then in Walking in the Clouds, he played a salesman who retired from World War II, a scientific researcher in Chain Reaction, an unknown writer in Feeling Minnesota, and The Devil's Advocate's Spokesman. In just a few years, he played many different roles. Due to his efforts to keep his distance from mainstream filmmakers, the sales of his selected independent films were not good, and his position in Hollywood gradually weakened. After playing the devil's advocate, he didn't get the Hollywood script for half a year.
From 65438 to 0999, keanu reeves ushered in the second turning point of his acting career-The Matrix. This is a movie describing the virtual network world, and it became the second box office in the United States with 1999. Keanu reeves plays a dark, mysterious and powerful hacker in the film. He basically only wears black clothes, short hair and no smile, but his eyes are very attractive and he looks cool. The action design of this film is directed by Yuan Heping, a famous Hong Kong martial arts designer. At his request, keanu reeves and other actors specially studied martial arts for several months before filming. This year, he released a new film, body double, in which he played an American football quarterback. After the film was released in the United States, the box office was not ideal. Keanu was also criticized by film critics and fans. Watcher is another masterpiece he released this year, in which Keanu first tried the villain role and played a serial killer. As soon as the film was released, it won the top spot in the North American box office with a revenue of 9,654,380,000 US dollars, which saved the influence of body double to some extent. I am currently training in Australia for four months, and then filming Matrix 2 for one year. His next play, Hard Ball, will challenge baseball and play a coach.
After becoming famous, keanu reeves did not strike while the iron is hot to pick up some high-paid blockbusters, but was keen to pick up some low-cost films, showing a mentality of being indifferent to fame and fortune. In addition to acting, he is also keen on motorcycles and music, working as a bass player in Sirius and living a chic life. Jennifer and Ava
Despite the constant scandals, as an actor who pays great attention to personal privacy, Reeves has never mentioned or admitted any real girlfriend in the media. 1999 Before Christmas, the unborn daughter Eva Archer Reeves, whom Reeves and his girlfriend Jennifer Sem had been expecting for a long time, died unfortunately. They were very sad. It is rumored that Reeves and Sam broke up after that, but they still maintained a good relationship. Jennifer unfortunately drove the Cherokee jeep into the reverse lane at about 6 am on April 2, 2000/KLOC-0, and hit three parked cars. She died on the spot because she didn't wear a seat belt. The police found antidepressants and other unknown drugs in her car. Reeves was deeply saddened to hear that she had returned to Los Angeles from Sydney and served as her coffin protector. In Jennifer Sam's obituary, Sam's family called Reeves "the love of her life". After Jennifer Sem died, director david lynch dedicated the film Mulholland Road to her.
