In 1994 he played Jack Traven in “Speed” and that role made him one of the best earning actors in Hollywood (the film earned 121 mln $).

Two years later Reeves made a character of Neo in “Matrix” and thanks to it he became one of the best known actors in the whole world. For the role in “Matrix” he earned 100 mln $.

Keanu Reeves loves the music so much that he’s got his own band named “Dogstar”. Because of it he rejected the role in the second part of “Speed” – he had his concerts that time.
