I am really saddened by the fact that this mistake, which he’s already apologized for, is what is getting publicity.
This is a man who has struggled with SEVERE addiction and is trying to use his story to help others. He is not doing this to shill a book for money, if you saw his interview with Diane Sawyer you would see that he is absolutely fine financially.
He made a dumb joke in a book meant to help people with a problem most people don’t even want to talk about. I wish people could see past it. Especially since we all know that the internet cares more about it than Keanu does.
Exactly, people that are only addicted to the internet and have no idea of real struggles are the ones getting offended. It's a joke in a book about the real life struggles of addiction. If you dont have any empathy then feel free to downvote. Addicts are people too
Ten years ago Reeves was widely considered a terrible actor and was frequently the butt of jokes in that regard. I'm thinking Perry just hasn't kept up with internet culture.
Yeah there was a time where his very monotone acting in the Matrix was thought of as the furthest he'd go. No fucking joke. I'm glad that's obviously not true, he's a good actor, quiet, not exactly an energetic person like Chris Farley but he's a good actor. The 90s and 2000s were not kind about it though lol...
The memes about him before John Wick were literally comparing him to a block of wood due to his stiff acting. But now people both like him as a person and get a kick out of his acting. The other person mentioned Farley because Perry compared Reeves to him.
