About the book: 2022 / Keanu Reeves is mesmerizing. Hollywood box office star raised on punk rock; a subtle and honest actor with a minimalist approach to acting; the humble “boyfriend of the entire Internet”; grunge bassist; motorcycle connoisseur; meme in the flesh. This man has been a time traveler (more than once), a tongue-tied teenager (and more than one), a mad scientist, a digital messiah, a tired killer... “I think all of Keanu’s films are partly autobiographical, whether he knows it or not,” - writes Alex Pappadimas, having studied the entire filmography of Keanu Reeves and learned everything there is to know about him without being Keanu Reeves himself. Keanu Reeves is an absolute legend and one of the most mysterious actors of our time. He lives and plays contrary to all the traditions of stardom and invariably remains the object of worldwide, unconditional, albeit slightly ironic adoration. Over the years of his career, Keanu Reeves has managed to remain himself and at the same time turned into a Zen empty vessel into which the audience pours their expectations. Keanu Reeves is a star, but not only that: in addition, he personifies the very concept of a “good person” and thereby subtly lets us know that all is not lost for the world. Alex Pappadimas is a Los Angeles-based journalist, critic and cultural critic, author of The New York Times, GQ Grantland, The New Yorker, Los Angeles Times, Men's Healthy Esquire and Rolling Stone. He had never written a book before, and his debut was a great success. Here is a deep and detailed study of the amazing phenomenon named Keanu Reeves, as well as Hollywood, popular culture and life in general on this sometimes too busy planet.
