Keanu Reeves fans are convinced there is a reason behind the Hollywoodactor’s youthful appearance.
The Matrix star, 57, quickly became a heartthrob after shooting to fame in the late 1980s – and the star looks just as good nowadays!
In fact, some of his fans believe he looks a little too good for his age, which has gone on to spark a bizarre conspiracy theory.

They claim that Keanu may actually be immortal and has lived for multiple centuries in different “identities”.
It’s rumoured the “first sighting” of Keanu is Charlemagne, King of the Franks and Lombards and Emperor of the Romans.

Charlemagne – who bears a resemblance to the actor – reportedly lived from 742AD to 814AD.
He is said to have passed away of natural causes just months after he established his son as his successor, sparking speculation that the whole thing could have been staged.
Another of Keanu’s “identities” is believed to be the 19th Century medical doctor and actor Paul Mounet, who also looks like the star.
Following the doctor’s death in February 1922 due to heart disease, theorists have claimed it may have all been set up in order for Keanu to escape.

Speaking to Yahoo, futurist and philosopher Dr Richard Hames explained: “[Mounet’s] body, I don’t think, was ever found, although there was some conjecture that he died of a heart condition.”
The actor also resembles the portrait of an unknown man from 1530, shown in a graphic on the conspiracy website.
Keanu previously addressed the conspiracy during an appearance on the Jimmy Fallon show in 2017.
When asked about his striking resemblance to both historical figures, he cryptically responded: “We’re all stardust baby.”

It certainly isn’t the first time the actor has been involved in a conspiracy theory.
Conspiracy fans previously speculated that Keanu and Sandra Bullock are real-life vampires.
The claim emerged in a TikTok video posted earlier this month which has since gone viral.
Shared by TikTok user @iammrconspiracy, the theory states that a number of celebrities have doppelgängers from previous eras which are so uncanny, they have to be the stars themselves.

Stars including Robert Pattinson, Johnny Depp, Eddie Murphy, Queen Latifah, Nicolas Cage, John Travolta, Matthew McConaughey, Sofia Vergara and Jay-Z are also accused of being vampires in the viral video.
Featured alongside their supposed portrait doppelgängers in the 40-second clip, the theory explains: “Are these celebrities vampires or elites? Some of these are pure doppelgängers. Or is it them? It’s unreal. It’s weird, right?”
Both Sandra and Keanu have been acting for more than three decades and continue to make films, including Sandra’s latest romcom venture The Lost City and Keanu’s John Wick series.
He also appeared in last year’s The Matrix Resurrections reboot.
