Keanu Reeves has put together an impressively diverse acting resume throughout his career. The 60-year-old has starred in movies ranging from The Matrix, to the John Wick series and even various animated series where he’s the voice of prominent characters, such as Sonic The Hedgehog.
In terms of creativity and the ability to adapt to numerous roles, Reeves has thrived over the years.
But even with his ability to take on a broad range of movie genres, he’s still giving the crown for “most creative” in his relationship to girlfriend Alexandra Grant. Reeves was bluntly honest about that during an interview with People.com.

When asked who was more creative between himself and Grant, Reeves stated it was “Alexandra, for sure.”
It’s high praise from the Point Break actor, but the feeling of admiration is mutual, as Grant discussed with People. Grant, who co-owns a bookstore with Reeves called X Artists Books, praised her partner for the positive impact he’s had on her.
“I had a studio visit a few years ago, and this very kind, very high-level person said, ‘I can see that your work has gotten happier,’” she recalled Reeves telling her. “That’s real. We’re all human beings. We’re animals. We’re expressing from where we are. I think the work is happier.”
“He’s such an inspiration to me,” she added. “He’s so creative, he’s so kind. He works so hard.”
While the pair have worked together on various projects, including the aforementioned bookstore, they also worked on two books together, including Ode to Happiness Together in 2011, when they were first linked.
As Reeves told People.com, his love of motorcycles also seems to have carried over to Grant.
“We have been on a couple of trips together on the motorcycle and we have enjoyed it,” he revealed.
Reeves and Grant met in 2009, and their public debut as a couple came in November 2019.
