Actor Keanu Reeves has been called the internet’s prince, and he’s living up to the wholesome title after his recent encounter with a young fan at the airport. TV producer Andrew Kimmel saw the entire thing happen and tweeted the heartwarming interaction between Reeves and a kid. It’s sure to make you like the John Wick star even more.
It began when the kid approached Reeves in the baggage claim area of the airport and asked for an autograph. He didn’t stop there, though, and proceeded to ask the actor a “rapid-fire” series of questions. It would’ve been easy to blow off his queries, but Reeves responded to each one. And when the kid ran out of questions, Reeves started “grilling him,” genuinely interested in the boy’s trip.
Kimmel shared the exchange to prove that Reeves is indeed one of the kindest folks in Hollywood. “The man could not have been nicer, especially after an international flight,” Kimmel says. “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!”
Actor Keanu Reeves is proving, yet again, that he’s one of the nicest people in Hollywood.

The whole thing shows just how genuinely kind Reeves is, even at the airport.
