8 Bizarre Conspiracy Theories About Popular Actors

3. Keanu Reeves Is Immortal

A few of these have cropped over the years for various celebrities (including Nicholas Cage), but Keanu Reeves is where it all started. You know a conspiracy theory must be good if it's got its own website (specifically keanuisimmortal.com) According to this theory, Reeves is an immortal being who has been on the earth for at least one-thousand years. The proof is found throughout history, with various depictions of historical figures bearing an admittedly striking resemblance to The Matrix actor. The first is the French king Charlemagne, who lived from around 740 to 814. Reeves' second appearance in history came in the form of Paul Mounet, a French actor who lived from 1847 €“ 1922. Again, a painting of Mounet by Louis-Maurive Boutet de Monvel bears an incredible similarity. Not only that, but comparing pictures of Reeves in the nineties to how he looks now shows he has aged extraordinarily well. According to theorists, Reeves' immense kindness and generosity (the actor is known for being remarkably humble) is a sign of the wisdom he has gained over hundreds of years. Completely ludicrous, but an amusing theory nevertheless.
