Turns out Keanu Reeves is a hell of a nice guy. Who knew?
From Hello Magazine’s story KEANU REEVES GIVES £50 MILLION TO UNSUNG HEROES OF ‘THE MATRIX’:
Keanu Reeves has shown his generosity by giving away £50 million of his earnings from the Matrix sequels… to the unsung heroes of the sci-fi blockbusters — the costume and special effects teams…
His gift to the Matrix series’ 29 behind-the-scenes whiz kids will see each of them receiving £1.75 million.
To put his gift in perspective, he is expected to net in total around £70 million from both Matrix sequels. So he’s giving something like 70% of his take to the SFX wizards who made him look so good fighting off a hundred Agent Smiths.
In a word: whoa.
