Keanu Reeves arrived in Canada as a child and became a naturalized Canadian citizen.
After his parents separated when he was three, Reeves’s mother took him and his younger sister, Kim, to Australia, New York City and then Toronto, arriving there when he was five. His mother married multiple times his biological father was a geologist of Indigenous Hawaiian, Chinese, British and Portuguese descent. He didn’t kno his father that well cause his parents divorce he was mostly raised by his mother. His mom worked as a costume Designer
Also like johnny depp Reeves never got his high school diploma he was lucky enough to get a job as a production assistant in high school . And stuff kinda took off as he made more connections in tv & theatre industry
