Keanu Reeves is back at it again.
The internet’s favorite star of summer found a way to surprise fans while on the way to work last week. (He’s filming the sequel “Bill & Ted Face the Music” in Louisiana.)
“So yesterday this sign was out on a lawn on the way to set. Keanu jumped out of the car and did this,” “Bill & Ted” writer Ed Solomon tweeted on Thursday. Solomon’s photos show Reeves autographing a sign planted on a lawn in Slidell that reads “YOU’RE BREATHTAKING,” a nod to the actor’s viral moment at the Electronic Entertainment Expo last month.
While helping to unveil a new Xbox game, Reeves described the experience as “breathtaking.” An attendee shouted, “You’re breathtaking!” back at the actor.
And in true Keanu fashion, he laughed, before responding, “You’re breathtaking! You’re all breathtaking!” Flash-forward a month to Reeves repeating himself by returning the compliment in writing on the lawn sign.
He then took photos with the family responsible for the sign. Stacey Hunt told CNN that Reeves spent a few minutes chatting with her family, including 16-year-old Ethan, who suggested to his mom they should make a sign to welcome Reeves to the neighborhood.
“What you read about him being such a great person with a great heart is true,” Hunt told CNN. “At least that’s what I think from my few minutes with him.”
