We’d say that actor Keanu Reeves is “having a moment” on the internet, but true meme lovers know that Keanu has been a popular fixture on the web humor circuit for close to a decade already. Back in 2010 the star of “The Matrix” was snapped by paparazzi eating a sandwich, prompting a Photoshop meme called “Sad Keanu” that still pops up online to this day. A still from “Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure” has also been a popular meme for years.

In 2019, however, the internet’s love for all things Keanu reached new levels of fandom. His appearances in blockbuster films “John Wick 3” and “Toy Story 4” gave fans new material to work with, and campy appearances in Netflix’s “Always Be My Maybe” and at CyberPunk2027 only fueled the fire. Every day Reddit cranks out memes about “the internet’s boyfriend,” and since he has a well-earned reputation for being kind to fans and animals, his popularity won’t be waning anytime soon. Here’s a brief history of the evolution of the Keanu Reeves meme from 2010 to present day.
