What 12 Keanu Reeves Stunts Looked Like Behind The Scenes | Movies Insider | Insider
Throughout his 40-year career, Keanu Reeves has pushed the limits of what kinds of action an actor can do on-screen. Keanu’s breakthroughs into action movies were “Point Break” (1991) and “Speed” (1994). In the groundbreaking “The Matrix” (1999) and its sequel “The Matrix Reloaded,” he performed impressive martial-arts moves and wire fu.
In “The Matrix Resurrections” (2021), he jumped off a 550-foot skyscraper to pull off the perfect shot. With “John Wick” (2014) and its sequels, Keanu and the stunt team pushed the envelope physically as far as possible. In “John Wick: Chapter 2” (2017), Keanu immersed himself in judo and jujitsu while stunt-driving for parts of the film’s memorable opening scene.
In “John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum” (2019), he learned trick horse riding and participated in a motorcycle sword fight with clever visual effects. In “John Wick: Chapter 4” (2023), Keanu participated in the franchise’s most ambitious action scene yet, which required him to learn how to do a reverse 180 in a muscle car and then do hand-to-hand combat between speeding cars.

What 12 Keanu Reeves Stunts Looked Like Behind The Scenes | Movies Insider | Insider
Keanu Reeves is a man of focus, commitment and sheer will.
Although Keanu has never been distinguished by a subtle acting game, he still managed to make himself an excellent career thanks to his hard work and genuine charm.
I think he is actually a good actor. Most people don't see those movies though.
I never been good with words , but I thank you” much ado Keanu is so Keanu
That’s how I’m going through my career too lol
Imagine an action-packed blockbuster featuring both Tom Cruise and Keanue Reeves :)) The amount of real stunts performed by these two will be overwhelming :))
I'm not sure that the stunt guild would allow that. "Hey guys, let us do something at least!!!" 😂
This just shows just what an amazing and dedicated actor Keanu truly is.
😮 it still blows my mind just how much training Keanu Reeves did for these movies and how all of the crew and cast and everyone involved really shows how much they care to do the genres are as true and real they can get them
Driving scene in John Wick 4 is just phenomenal!!
Thanks for your love and support ❤
"Everything he touches dies." it is the best line in John Wick 4.
That is a great one. One of my favourites though was “Maybe I’m wrong.”
A proper one may be: everything he touches, nails it!
That type of dedication is truly unreal for an actor and it definitely shows in any of his action scenes
I just cant get enough of Keanu!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I think I can say Keanu Reeves is in my top 5 favorite actors of all time. Liked him since Bill and Ted
Keanu is the man!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Keanu does his own stunts!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
John Wick 4 was insane!! loved the fight scenes
Thanks for your love care and support my wonderful fans where are you texting from
@@keanureeves8902 i love you
@@j.m6334 thanks for your love and support. Can will talk privately
@@keanureeves8902 youre not keanu reeves lol.
I feel the need to say, the Hugo Weavings weren't dighital, they were over 20 stuntmen with silicon masks that replicated Hugo's face. Apparently it was both creepy and terrifying. But it took the makeup department a lot of work to get it right, so I couldn't help myself. Great video. (sorce: The Matrix ReloadedBehind the scenes/making of, KZhead)
He is so into the character , he becomes in real
he is indeed the most lethal movie star
haha😅,Thanks so much for your love and support for me dear, I'm so happy for your good comment ...... where are you from?
I am so proud of Keanu's stunt team for doing this amazing stunts especially on the JW films
Keanu Reeves is a good action hero. 💯
i love keanu reeves so much
I happy to hear that, and thanks for your continuous love❤❤
Very humble Keanu ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Bravo,Keanu👏
Execelant good team work, I enjoy very much...
Keanu is up there with Tom Cruise as a Master Stunt Actor.
and above them both, is Jackie Chan.
He is so badass 🤙
WOW! Keanu Reeves is a legend!
man of focus in every movie🔥
keanu reeves = love 😍😍💗💗💓
it's amazing how he did all those stuts while carrying his massive balls of steel
This was a great video! Just starting in some stunt classes. This guy really made something look easy when it def isnt. Keanu. I tell you, he use to not be taken serious at all now he's a BAMF
Living in a fantasy world has to take a toll on your mind.
This is so cool. Thank God all the cables held up.💕💕
He and leonardo dicaprio are Two of my fav actors.
Thank you for the update, Insider..!! Great VFX and stunt work..!!
The only thing Matrix 4 did was make sure the Matrix 3 was not the worst one.
Matrix got the Star Wars treatment. The new releases make you appreciate the previous iterations. All that Prequel hate went out the window once we new ones released
I watched The Matrix (original) for the first time yesterday, please be honest...do you think I should watch the second one? Or will it tarnish my retinas?
💀💀💀💀💀
@@laneatkinson6441 what?? All 3 movies are masterpiece, don't let these fools fool you.
@@laneatkinson6441 Second one was ok, built upon the first with more action, lore, and story. But it sets up a story that cannot be completed without the 3rd movie. You have to watch both. Now about the story for 2+3, there's too many things going on for people to digest, and there's a few plot holes and disappointments. The meanings, symbolism, of many places and people were not fully apparent until I read the wiki. A lot more made sense after going there 😅. About the 4th, the director sisters were kinda forced into making one and it showed. It's written to be a bit of an FU to Warner Brothers (but not necessarily a sabotage effort). I thought it was ok, because I was aware of the disappointment, and just had fun watching. There's new characters, themes, revelations, etc. Don't take it too seriously.
He's breathtaking :)
Chapter 4 🔥🔥 top cinema
Impressionante ❤😊
Thanks for your love, care and support maria. It’s been a pleasure talking to you. Where are you from?
More videos like this please! I absolutely love it
Most righteous Mr.Reeves
Thanks for your love, care and support abby.It’s been a pleasure talking to you. Where are you from?
Originally I am from Texas, my present location is Fayetteville Arkansas, Mr.Reeves Smile
@@AbbySwinburne-ld1nz great! For how long have you been supporting me
@@keanu_reeves34 Well For many many moons I have admired you Mr.Reeves Smile
@@AbbySwinburne-ld1nz Thats awesome , Whats your favorite movie from my collections?
We need to see Keanu Reeves and Tom Cruise in one movie.
He's to tall to be on screen with Tom
Unfortunately the stage only has one center, and Cruise isn't going to let anyone else have it.
@@ImBotTheOnlyOne yeah, he will die on day one doing a tom cruise stunt
@@loldoctor 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@loldoctor Why should he?! He has done well on his own movies, and he’s got respect from his audience in general. Only the haters hate him, because of their jealousy of him, and his private life.
Super cool 😎
Wow!! 😳😲❤❤
Legend
Keanu reeves and tom cruise... The last Action Superstars of this generation.. Dont know who will carry forward their legacy
we need more action stars that do their own stunts.
Muito bom esse filmaço John wick
존윅 4기 영화 정말재미있게보았습니다☆최고☆
haha😅,Thanks so much for your love and support for me dear, I'm so happy for your good comment ............... where are you from?

😇💖👍👍. keanu reeves is dude big . big boss movie .
Muito legal! Abraços 🌹😊🙏🏻
that's great, Thanks so much for your love and support for me dear, I'm so happy for your good comment ............... where are you from?
Keanu reeves is tom cruise of canada
Very cool 😀
Thank for your love care and support
Cool
❤️🔥
I am convinced not to pick a fight with Keanu, with or without a gun. "I know kungfu" and now gunfu and carfu.
where is his oscar for being such an incredible action star???
Keanu Reeves is a C grade actor who puts so much work into his roles we kinda just don't care his face only has about 1.5 expression options.
James May of Top Gear said that keeping your thumbs out also prevents them breaking during head-on collisions, which is why rally drivers use that driving position too I found it hilarious that everyone including myself had formulated these theories on which armed forces branch JW would have served in because of his use of center axis relock, abd then the directors on Honest Trailers guest segment were like 'it looked cool so we did it'
Yeah, the reason given here makes little sense. I have to admit after treating thousands of patients after a vehicle crash dislocated thumbs are rare. Fractured and broken hips are another story from people bracing for impact.

Keanu Reeves and Tom Cruise need to do a film together!
Add Jackie Chan in the mix and you’d have the perfect “stunt actor-movie star” film
@@Rck-vert Good shout!! 👍
one do actions, the other do actions AND stunts damn, that would be one heck of an encore for Keanu, especially for his finale role should he wish to retire (which i bet he won't)
So amazing!!! Love this guy and Tom! Definitely not a sissy!
Thank you for your support
Too bad, 47 Ronins flopped..? Would be cool to see Keanu wield a katana once again.
John Wick the new Jason Vorhees
FIRST !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YEYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
Wait, did you said, 45 hours of training daily for 45 months? 😮
Nah, 4 to 5 months :D
😂
40 hours a day is the bare minimum
Keep in mind he's 58
Verrazzano bridge checkpoint passed. All non essential personnell...
I can do all this if I am bond to wires and no sign of falling lol. It's not that difficult.
difference is, no one wants to see you do anything.
Not unless your abdominal muscles are made of steel and your center of gravity is near perfect. Wire work is some of the hardest work there isn't. It's actually harder than doing it without wires. Because the wires are constantly trying to center you in an unnatural position, when you're trying to flip unnaturally.
If Keanu Reeves ever joined the MCU, what character would he be best for? (Since they've now introduced the multiverse; he can also play an alternate version of a character that's already been seen in the MCU.)
Keanu Reeves is who Tom Cruise is trying to be. Keanu>Tom.
🧢
Yeah, John Wick 4 topped everything
In John Wick 4 he keeps the same, identical, immutable, expressionless face for all the 169 minutes of the film....,. This thing is a device by Keanu to not notice too much, for example, that he is hit at 35 mph by at least six cars and does not even experience an itchy knee 😂
Tom Cruise needs to be in the 5th JW at some capacity.
schade dachte keanu ist wirklich gefahren
Thanks for your love care and support where are you texting from
hank you for commenting on my fan page.. your love and support towards my career
Awesome video. JW4 was pretty disappointing. But the overall series was amazing.
WHAT?! Dude JW4 is up there with the first one.. wth are you saying. it at the very least blew the 3rd one out of the water.
Still can’t surpass the levels of Tom Cruise’s stunt works. Tom has gone to many extreme levels that he did them himself.
He's awesome. But that nunchucks scene to me just didn't look or feel quite right while I was watching part 4.just seemed very clumsy and slow looking.
I like the part in the after credits where it was revealed john wick faked his death.
There was no such scene after the credits.
@@uome20bukz “repeat a lie long enough and people will think it’s true” - I forgot who said this quote
@@bryantheawsome9011 nobody will think it’s true since evidence to the contrary is literally in the movie, so i don’t know what you’re trying to prove here
@@uome20bukz dude don’t you get it, it’s a joke. Got the humor of a bot.
Matrix should have chapter 5, but keanu's condition now is not suitable to play any movie role,not even Constantine,he is unsteady
There were no right takes in this movie. The whole production was a waste of time apparently.
Just got back from cinema watching John Wick 4, it was freaking awesome! Fight scenes are insane
Special FX are not the same thing as stunts...
Всё снимает нейросеть, а народу зелёных человечков показывают)))
😮 it still blows my mind just how much training Keanu Reeves did for these movies and how all of the crew and cast and everyone involved really shows how much they care to do the genres are as true and real they can get them
