Reeves later moved on to Sophia Coppola. Reeves met Jennifer Syme in , and he has since said that the two fell in love quickly. After a short time dating, the two learned they were expecting their first child.
Sadly, their baby was born stillborn at eight months. So did he do the big movies in order to fund the smaller projects? But I guess those movies were in reaction to each other. We shared an artistic sensibility.
River was just so down to earth, spiritual and a unique artist. They had something else in common, a shared experience suggested in the now almost unbearably moving scene where the two sit by a campfire and talk haltingly about their childhoods. Mike Phoenix : If I had a normal family, and a good upbringing, then I would have been a well-adjusted person. Was that another thing that drew them together? He ponders the question for a full 10 seconds.
In , two years after the release of My Own Private Idaho, the actor who desperately wanted to avoid every Hollywood cliche died the most cliched death imaginable, of a drug overdose on Sunset Boulevard.
Plenty of his contemporaries were also caught out, either self-destructing or becoming victims of their own success. Reeves adamantly refused to do either. But if Leonardo DiCaprio went into a supermarket, there would be hysteria, I say.
Whereas I can, which is good. Come on, surely fans bother him all the time. Maintaining his privacy has been a major factor in helping Reeves retain his sanity, yet away from the press he can be extraordinarily open and laid back. By a weird fluke I have two friends who, separately, spent time with him in the s, and both still talk about his generosity: he took them for rides on his motorbike and stayed in touch.
Yes, I am furious with them for not including me in any of this. Shortly before we meet, Reeves was on a flight between San Francisco and Los Angeles that was grounded by a mechanical fault. Needless to say, footage of this quickly went viral.
But he bristles when I mention these stories. Ah well. But if the price of Reeves still being so recognisably Keanuish is him retaining a firm grip on his privacy and at least a pretence of normality, that feels like a fair trade-off. I assume doing this interview has been a torturous experience for him, so as we get up to leave I ask how he would have preferred to spend the afternoon, in a dream scenario.

It's just, 'Oh my God. Where did the time go? How come things are changing? How much time do I have left? What didn't I do? If that statement isn't enough to get the waterworks flowing, try this. The Canadian-raised celeb was at a press conference in , surprisingly getting quite honest while the reporters asked him questions. Per Star2 , when asked about what love means to him, Reeves replied, "You mean romantic love?
You know, I'm the lonely guy. I don't have anyone in my life. But if it does occur, I would respect and love the other person; hopefully it'll happen for me. A big hiccup that may get in the way of Keanu Reeves getting married is, well, technically he already is. Referring to none other than his Bram Stoker's Dracula co-star, Winona Ryder , it turns out that the duo may have tied the knot on set of the flick!
It's not the first time the shocking fact has been discussed, either, as Ryder spoke about the tidbit to Entertainment Weekly in We shot the master and he did the whole thing. So I think we're married. While this fact shattered the hearts of many Keanu-diehards, they were then shredded when Coppola confirmed it. Speaking to The Guardian , the director admitted that he wasn't initially happy with the first version of the scene they shot. Thinking that "having the real wedding ceremony as it might be in that religion [Greek Orthodox Christianity] would be beautiful," he brought in an actual priest.
To all of Reeves' potential dates: the actor may be hard to get close to — quite literally.

News sites like CNN got wind of the phenomenon, compiling numerous fan responses to the revelation.
Back in , news broke that the couple were expecting their first child. However, they later learned that their baby had been a stillborn. Not long after, Reeves and Syme split. Just two years later, Syme would die in a car accident. For Reeves, these tragedies have always stayed with him. It may have even been the reason he was drawn to portray John Wick.
