He dropped by a fan’s house in Slidell, Louisiana on Wednesday to make a little dream come true. For those familiar with [Reeves’ notable accomplishments in the internet boyfriend zone](https://time.com/5611378/keanu-reeves-popularity-toy-story-4/), “you’re breathtaking” are the words he repeated after a fan shouted them at him from the crowd at the E3 gaming conference in June. The warm interaction was charming enough to make the news, and become a bit of a catchphrase. So when a family learned that Reeves would be in town to film [_Bill and Ted Face the Music_](https://time.com/5623930/keanu-reeves-yearbook-photo/), 16-year-old Ethan Hunt specifically requested a “you’re breathtaking” lawn sign to roll out the red carpet for the star. His mother, Stacey, was happy to craft the sign in Reeves’ honor. Perhaps the actor was feeling the love. Just hours after the mother placed the poster in the yard, apparently Reeves just magically showed up. He signed the poster, “Stacey, you’re breathtaking!” Reeves also chatted with the family and posed for some snapshots. Ed Solomon, the screenwriter for _Bill and Ted_ captured it all and posted it to Twitter. The Keanu-sance continues. See below for the Keanu Reeves “You’re Breathtaking” sign moment. > [](https://twitter.com/sjhunt305/status/1151952320768479232) ## Transcript [00:00] I look at my life as as like especially in [00:03] my career is like pretty crazy, dangerously close to energy [00:06] because so much has changed and it impacts everything every day. [00:10] Oh no, I couldn't empower. No, it's not a problem. [00:12] I had some dinner portions a lot. [00:16] I think that it gave [00:18] Asian-American people like a kind of ownership [00:20] over their own stories and a kind of like ability for them to to share [00:23] that experience, to tell things that are true to themselves. [00:27] The box office success of Crazy Rich Asians in the summer of 2018 [00:31] has reset expectations and ambitions for Asian-American actors and filmmakers. [00:37] Almost a year later, Awkwafina stars in another movie [00:40] with an all Asian cast. [00:43] Please tell me when that is dying. [00:47] She doesn't know. [00:48] So you can't see anything. [00:51] Numbers are really important for this business [00:53] because if the film does well financially, it means it works. [00:58] It means that films that are told with specificity [01:02] have the potential to make money and to connect with a broader audience, [01:07] regardless of whether or not they themselves are Asian. [01:12] When we were younger, where we would just say, Well, you know, [01:15] these people don't represent me, but I'm kind of funny like that girl. [01:19] And, you know, so I'll sort of find some way to relate to this person, [01:25] even if they don't fully represent me or my experiences. [01:29] And I think that's a compromise that you're not even aware [01:33] how much of a compromise that is until you see a movie like Crazy [01:37] Rich Asians or always be my maybe where suddenly it's like there's like a click [01:42] in place where you go, Oh my God, this has been missing from my entire life. [01:50] And I've [01:50] talked to all these these, these actors that I've watched growing up. [01:54] It makes you think about not how we're evolving, but what we're evolving from. [01:57] You know, these actors have gone through immense struggle [02:01] that we'll never know today what stuff you have [02:04] to understand that to understand like where we're going, we're coming from. [02:08] You know, this is a it's like you can't ask, like, [02:11] why did that Asian character choose that role? [02:13] You have to ask why that role was the only one available to that Asian actor, [02:17] why they have to go on auditions constantly like that. [02:19] The ones that we're walking out on this generation, of course, do That is cool. [02:24] It was Asian-Americans on social media [02:28] that brought a lot of these like issues to the core. [02:31] Like, why is this happening? [02:33] We're pissed off about it. We're saying something about it. [02:35] This should affect your decisions on how you plan your stuff. [02:40] And I think that our voices were heard. [02:43] In 2016 when I watched starring John Cho. [02:46] It was kind of the precipice of of a lot of whitewashing. [02:50] News about Doctor Strange had come out told to put this character. [02:54] And with the low hype starring Emma Stone [02:57] and it really came to a head for me when watching the Oscars that year [03:00] where Chris Rock proposed to being and he trotted out [03:03] three little Asian to kind of make a joke that they were PricewaterhouseCoopers [03:07] most diligent workers, [03:11] and hearing the audiences laughter and reaction [03:14] really kind of struck me and hit a chord where it really felt as though [03:18] this is the way that the entire country viewed Asian Americans. [03:23] I don't think that I could have predicted that in two years after a hashtag [03:27] starring John Cho came out, we would have big movies like Searching [03:31] into All the Boys I Loved Before and Crazy Rich Asians come out. [03:34] Definitely, I think exceeded my expectations in terms of the pace [03:37] that this was going to progress. [03:42] I absolutely love [03:44] seeing roles that don't have a race descriptor or sex descriptor. [03:47] That's great. [03:48] And that's a way that Asian-Americans can integrate. [03:50] But another way that we can integrate is literally telling our own stories [03:54] and being in charge of those stories. Yeah. [03:56] I certainly hope [03:57] that it's not a trend and that in fact, it's [04:01] moving in a direction more and more where audiences are demanding [04:06] representation on every level and so that we can [04:11] ultimately have more and more specific stories that reflect [04:16] the melting pot that is actually this country and this world. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/5631508/keanu-reeves-lawn-sign/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/5631508/keanu-reeves-lawn-sign/"},"headline":"Master of the Fan Encounter Keanu Reeves Has Pulled the Most Keanu Reeves Move Imaginable","datePublished":"2019-07-22T12:38:08.000Z","dateModified":"2026-08-04T07:47:06.107Z","description":"Keanu Reeves continues to be the internet's soul mate by signing a You're Breathtaking lawn sign created in his honor.","url":"https://time.com/5631508/keanu-reeves-lawn-sign/","keywords":["Newsfeed","celebrities","onetime"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Ashley Hoffman","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/ashley-hoffman/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/5631508/keanu-reeves-lawn-sign/","name":"Master of the Fan Encounter Keanu Reeves Has Pulled the Most Keanu Reeves Move Imaginable"}}]},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"VideoObject","name":"Crazy Rich Asians Kicked Down the Door.
