Here our favorite Answers from Keanu Reeves’ Reddit AMA
1. What’s your favorite cocktail?
I was recently in Tokyo working, and was taken to a bar owned by a master cocktail maker named Ueno-san called High Five and he made some kind of sublime concoction with a smoky mezcal and green tea and some mysterious sweet liqueur, chilled. Oh my god.
2. Have you ever stolen anything from a set?
Not stolen…the watch and wedding ring from John Wick, a sword from 47 Ronin, and the first red pill that the Wachowski’s ever gave me.
3. When will you do a Hot Ones interview?
I love chicken wings…but I don’t want to eat really spicy chicken wings…especially not in public…and certainly not with the consequences in private. Bon apetit.
4. Has there ever been a role in your career that you regret turning down?
No…but I did always want to play Wolverine.
5. Have you ever had a pet?
Yes…the first pet I ever had was guinea pig named Carrot. I was 5 or 6 years old. He was a cutie-pie.
6. If aliens came to Earth, would you accept the responsibility of being the first to contact them?
Heck yea. How’s it going? How was your trip? You hungry? Want anything to drink?
7. What is your favorite film that you’ve worked on?
I’ve been very fortunate to work on a few films that have changed my life. I can’t pick just one. But here are a few—River’s Edge, Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure, Matrix trilogy, The Devil’s Advocate, A Scanner Darkly, My Own Private Idaho, Point Break, John Wick.
8. If you weren’t acting, what other career would you choose?
Well, when I was a kid I always said I wanted to be a race car driver, a conductor or an astrophysicist. Today, let’s conduct some music.

Working with Patrick Swayze. He was a gentlemen and a total pro, a movie star, an inspiration.

We die…and we all need all the help we can get.
Bonus: Can you tell us a fun experience you’ve had with co-stars while filming?
I had a scene with River Phoenix and he was sitting on the back of a motorcycle that I was driving while we were filming. It wasn’t extracurricular, but we went off the beaten path a bit and came back and no helmets. Just two friends playing. It was a really good day.
