'Good person' Keanu awakens again at age 50
How long will an actor who has established star status continue to be loved at the highest level? Some shine brightly for a short period of time and are forgotten, while others remain bright for decades. Keanu Reeves is by far the star that represents the latter.
There is a lot of information about A Very Private Affair and on set as a "nice guy," he dresses casually, he likes ramen, and in every respect, he has the same sensibilities as the average person. It is a miracle that he has managed to maintain that sensibility while at the top of Hollywood. The gods of cinema never abandoned Keanu, and they gave him works that will remain in the history of cinema, such as " Speed " (1994) and the " matrix " series (1999-2003). Then, when he reached his 50s, a new masterpiece was born: "John Wick" (2014). The year before, Keanu released his first directorial work, " Fighting Tiger " (2013), in which he also starred. For him, who was born in 1964, turning 50 was a turning point.

We asked Keanu, who was in Japan to promote "John Wick," about his awakening at the age of 50. The location is Imperial Hotel. Although it is one of Tokyo's most representative hotels, it is rarely used by Hollywood stars visiting Japan. It is a famous story that Keanu was impressed by the excellent cleaning service when he stayed at the Imperial Hotel in ``JM'' (1995), and since then, he has brought his own laundry every time he has visited Japan. There were so many rumors about it. That's why Keanu is offered accommodation at the Imperial Hotel. When he came to Japan for `` John Wick: Chapter 2 '' (17), the interview was at a different hotel, but he stayed at the Imperial Hotel.
Regarding his awakening at the age of 50, Keanu responded as follows. "I learned and trained in Judo and Jiu-Jitsu from the basics. Combining them with shooting movements is something I've never done before, so I guess it seems like an 'awakening'. 'But now that I'm in my 50s, I'm conscious of my age.I've had shoulder surgery, and I have chronic arthritis in my left leg.Because of that, I have to drain water from my knee and get injections. He's physically weak, so from now on he has no choice but to put his experience to good use.Like a veteran, he's good to the point.''
