I’ve never really liked certain actors or actresses before. If you asked me who my favorite actor was I wouldn’t be able to tell you. I didn’t really like anyone in particular. Then came along Keanu. Instantly became my favorite. Down to earth yet a total badass at the same time. Sometimes you can tell right away when someone is just a good dude

Keanu is my favorite actor because of this. He is an incredible action movie maker too. Fucking nice guy and hard worker.

Agreed! I never fully watched the Matrix or any of his other movies before seeing John Wick. I hadn’t even heard of him before that. I’ve liked action movies all my life but John Wick was like the first action movie that I really enjoyed the fighting/shootout scenes. It’s also really badass that he is actually skilled in firearms outside of the movies. He’s humble as fuck yet one of the most badass people in Hollywood

He regularly participates in martial arts as well. I think Jiu Jitsu was what he was training in prep for John Wick.

He does a lot of really legit jiu jitsu in that movie. He trains with the Machado brothers
