As the next John Wick movie is gearing up for production, Keanu Reeves sat down with Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show and addressed the internet conspiracy theory that he is, in fact, immortal.
The humorous theory relies on the fact that Reeves hasn’t visually aged much at all since he began in Hollywood. Plus, online sites have found antique portraits with subjects nearly identical to Reeves.

Fallon brought the theory up to Reeves, who said he had heard about it recently. Fallon then presented some of the antique portraits as evidence of the similarities.

“I can see that we have a likeness in the eyes, and the nose, and the cheekbones, and the forehead,” Reeves said.

Reeves is seen in a stylish suit and looks young as ever.

Artist Jonathan Yeo and King Charles III at the unveiling of artist Jonathan Yeo's portrait of the King, in the blue drawing room at Buckingham Palace, London. The portrait was commissioned in 2020 to celebrate the then Prince of Wales's 50 years as a member of The Drapers' Company in 2022. The artwork depicts the King wearing the uniform of the Welsh Guards, of which he was made Regimental Colonel in 1975. The canvas size – approximately 8.5 by 6.5 feet when framed – was carefully considered to fit within the architecture of Drapers' Hall and the context of the paintings it will eventually hang alongside. Picture date: Tuesday May 14, 2024. PA Photo. Jonathan Yeo had four sittings with the King, beginning when he was Prince of Wales in June 2021 at Highgrove, and later at Clarence House. The last sitting took place in November 2023 at Clarence House. Yeo also worked from drawings and photographs he took, allowing him to work on the portrait in his London studio between sittings.
