Keanu Reeves began his career in the mid-1980s with appearances on Canadian television, stage productions including Romeo and Juliet and Wolfboy, and films such as River's Edge and Dangerous Liaisons. He rose to fame starring as Ted Logan in Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure and its sequels, before establishing himself as a leading actor with acclaimed performances in My Own Private Idaho, Point Break, and Speed.
In the 1990s, Reeves balanced action films, dramas, and Shakespeare adaptations, appearing in Bram Stoker's Dracula, Much Ado About Nothing, and a stage production of Hamlet. He achieved global superstardom in 1999 as Neo in The Matrix, reprising the role in multiple sequels and helping define modern science-fiction cinema.
Alongside his film work, Reeves pursued music with the alternative rock band Dogstar and explored a wide range of genres in films including Constantine, A Scanner Darkly, and The Lake House. He made his directorial debut with Man of Tai Chi.
Reeves experienced a major career resurgence beginning in 2014 with the hugely successful John Wick franchise, reprising the role across multiple sequels. He has also voiced notable characters including Johnny Silverhand in Cyberpunk 2077, Duke Caboom in Toy Story 4, and Shadow the Hedgehog in Sonic the Hedgehog 3. Recent projects include The Matrix Resurrections, John Wick: Chapter 4, the comic series BRZRKR, and his 2025 Broadway debut in Waiting for Godot alongside Alex Winter.
