Live TV interviews can be great, or on the opposite end of the spectrum, they can be a complete mess, depending on the host and guest involved.Take Conan as an example, the host is one of the best, though he had some awkward interviews in the past. Who can forget the epic Abel Ferrara appearance… now that was one to remember.Colbert had some great moments on his show as well, just ask Richard Branson… In truth, the moment we’ll highlight today caught everyone off guard, and that includes the host himself.Keanu Reeves was asked what he thinks happens after death, the response he gave was perfect, leaving everyone including the host completely speechless.
The Interview Between Stephen Colbert And Keanu Reeves Started Off On The Lighter Side
It was a lot of laughs at the start of the interview on ‘Late Night with Stephen Colbert‘, as Keanu Reeves showed off his funnier side.
Of course, Colbert just had to ask ‘The Matrix‘ star about the infamous picture taken of his in the early 2000s, as he was munching away on a sandwich looking depressed.
When asked about what was going on, in classic Keanu style, he claimed to be deep in thought and simply just trying to eat a sandwich out in New York, without being bothered.
Of course, that wasn’t the case, as the pic went absolutely viral, especially given all the tragedy and hardships Keanu has been forced to deal with in his past.
Reeves admitted, he prefers to live a private life and one away from the chaos of the paparazzi.
The interview would take a shocking twist towards the end. Playfully, Colbert asked Keanu about what he thinks takes place after death.
Colbert and the fans weren’t ready for his response, one that almost brought the crowd, the viewers at home, and Colbert himself to tears.
Stephen Colbert Asks Keanu Reeves, “What Happens After We Die?”
It was lined up perfectly towards the end of the interview and it left both the host and the fans speechless. Reeves was asked by the host, “What do you think happens when we die Keanu Reeves?” In classic Keanu style, he processed the question, thought about it, took a deep breath, and said, “I know that the ones that love us, will miss us.”
The crowd and Stephen Colbert went completely silent, with the host finally muttering under his breath, “wow.” He simply shook Keanu’s hand after the moment and proceeded to read to the outro of the interview. It was the perfect exit and in typical Keanu style, he had everyone completely emotional from his words.
Of course, that wasn’t the end of it.
Fans on YouTube had lots of comments about the entire ordeal, with more than one million subscribers watching that exact moment. In addition, Reddit threads were created purposely to discuss the star’s perfect answer to such a question.
Fans On Reddit And YouTube Praised Keanu Reeves For His Response
This should come as a shock to absolutely nobody, but once again, fans were completely on Keanu Reeves’ side, after he gave that epic response. Of course, he’s one of the most adored celebs given how genuine he typically comes across as.
This scenario was no different as fans praised the actor.
“That is probably the best answer to a question like that I’ve ever heard.”
“It’s kinda awesome that the guy who probably holds the cinematic record for shooting people in the head is also the purest soul who ever walked the earth.”
“A wise man is someone who can give you an answer you always knew was true, while bringing your attention to the point that it should have never been forgotten in the first place.”
Fans would also praise Colbert for his response, given all the hardships he has gone through himself.
“Stephen lost his 2 older brothers and father in a plane crash when he was just 10 years old, hence why his lack of response or silence was so deep, it made sense to him as well.”
“Stephen’s silent touched response, smile, and handshake make this one of the best Colbert show moments ever.”
“Probably one of the better hosts to say it with as well. Smart enough not to add anything or have any exaggerated reaction.”
A tremendous ending to an interview fans will keep rewatching for years to come.
