You may not have known this, or you may have suspected it, but Keanu Reeves is immortal. <\/p>\n
At least, thats what the internet says, since multiple men have been found throughout history that bear a striking resemblance to the Matrix actor. <\/p>\n
Jimmy Fallon addressed the rumors on The Tonight Show Friday, pulling up old portraits submitted to keanuisimmortal.comand asking Reeves if he saw a resemblance. <\/p>\n

The first figure Fallon brings out is the artistParmigianino, who painted theself-portraitin1504-1540. <\/p>\n

Reeves, at first, dodged whether he thought the portrait looked like him, instead focusing on what the subject was doing with his hands (his two middle fingers held together and separated from the outside ones). But Reeves shouldnt talk, since hes done that with his hands as well! <\/p>\n

In all seriousness, Reeves does acknowledge the physical resemblance between him and his historical doppelgangers. <\/p>\n

We have a likeness in the eyes, he says of the artist self-portrait. And the nose and the mustache and the beard and the cheekbones and the forehead. <\/p>\n
Another subject Fallon proposes is the actor Paul Mounet. <\/p>\n

I was thinking about it and I go, You do look exactly the same since I first met you and I met you years ago, Fallon explained, showing a photo of the two of them at the MTV Movie Awards in 2000. <\/p>\n
As Fallon noted, Reeves looked exactly the same while Fallon doesnt. <\/p>\n

So Reeves doesnt outright state whether or not he is an immortal vampire, but he did say he had heard of the rumor before and that he does see the resemblance. Good enough! <\/p>\n
In the interview, Reeves also talked about coming to Hollywood for the first time, where his manager asked him to change his name. Reeves said he thought long and hard (near the ocean nonetheless) about it and came up with Chuck Spadina. <\/p>\n
Another option? Templeton Page Taylor. <\/p>\n
Watch the full clip above. <\/p>\n
Reeves plays Constantines titular exorcist bent on saving Earth from hell -- even though his soul is already damned to be interred there -- in the 2005 comic book adaptation which also starred Shia LaBeouf as a sidekick cab driver. <\/p>\n
A burned out football player becomes an FBI agent who learns how to surf so he can infiltrate a gang of bank robbers dressed like ex-Presidents and head up by Patrick Swayze. No, seriously, that's \"Point Break\" (1991). <\/p>\n
Keanu stars with Sandra Bullock in \"Speed,\" a movie that mostly takes place on a bus that will explode if it slows down below 55 mph. Bullock taking L.A. public transportation? Yeah, right. (1994) <\/p>\n
Keanu and Sandra reunited for The Lake House, a film that saw the Speed co-stars falling in love through the mail and through time: Bullock writes to Reeves in 2006 while he is living in 2004. And they dont even use stamps. <\/p>\n
A computer hacker discovers humanity is enslaved by a sentient program in The Matrix (1999). Reeves soon unplugs himself, masters kung fu and learns to fly. <\/p>\n
Ted (Reeves) plays a failing high school student who gets sent a time traveling phone booth from the future so that he and his buddy Bill (Alex Winter) can kidnap famous historic persons for their final class project. Turns out hes destined to become the messiah in Bill & Teds Excellent Adventure (1989), too. <\/p>\n
Johnny is a \"mnemonic courier\" from 2021 with a data storage device implanted in his brain, allowing him to discreetly carry information too sensitive to transfer across the Net, the virtual-reality equivalent of the Internet. Also, Ice Cube leads a rebellion that includes telekinetic dolphins (1995). <\/p>\n
Reeves playing a top-notch trial attorney in 1997's \"The Devil's Advocate.\" If that's not wacky enough on it's own, he's also the son of the Devil (Al Pacino). <\/p>\n
After discovering a dead stripper in his motel room, played by Cameron Diaz, Keanu assumes hes the murderer in Feeling Minnesota\" (1996). Dont worry, shes not dead and they live happily ever after in Vegas. <\/p>\n
One of the most high-profile bombs in Hollywood history, \"47 Ronin\" saw Keanu playing Kai, a half-English, half-Japanese character created for the 2013 movie and not included in any previous 47 Ronin films. <\/p>\n
Reeves plays a scientist trying to solve the energy crisis in \"Chain Reaction\" (1996) by splitting up the water molecule, or something. Soon hes neck-deep in a government conspiracy and being framed for murder and treason. <\/p>\n
After gambling away six grand, Keanu repays his debts in Hardball by coaching an inner-city little league team for an outrageous sum of $500 a week. But the real payoff comes when he teaches the kids the importance of camaraderie, which leads to a successful season that no one saw possible (2001). <\/p>\n
In John Wick (2014), Reeves latest offering, he plays a retired hitman who has no choice but to re-enter the seedy underworld after bad guys, wait for it murder his beloved puppy. Womp, womp. <\/p>\n
The oft-jeered actor has appeared in several films with far-fetched plots, including John Wick which opens Oct. 24 <\/p>\n
Reeves plays Constantines titular exorcist bent on saving Earth from hell -- even though his soul is already damned to be interred there -- in the 2005 comic book adaptation which also starred Shia LaBeouf as a sidekick cab driver. <\/p>\n
