Alexandra Grant appears to be spending more time in San Francisco as she visits her boyfriend Keanu Reeves on set. The couple was seen in the City by the Bay on Thursday evening after leaving the Omni Hotel.
On Sunday, they were spotted again, walking side by side. The pair, who went public with their relationship in November at the LACMA Art + Film Gala in Los Angeles, were dressed in similar coats.
Grant, an LA-based artist, wore a beige and black leopard print coat over a black outfit with UGG boots. Keanu, the movie icon, was in a black coat with an army green quilted lining, along with a green shirt, black blazer, and green plaid slacks. He completed his casual look with morning slippers and a black beanie.
The two seemed a bit tired and didn’t smile much but were seen conversing on the busy street, both carrying heavy bags, possibly heading to a night shoot for “Matrix 4.”
Thursday was the first time the 55-year-old actor and the 46-year-old artist were seen together since they went public with their relationship. Keanu led the way to a car with Grant following behind, while fans and onlookers took photos of the couple.
Reeves is in San Francisco shooting “Matrix 4,” which will be released in 2021. Directed by Lana Wachowski, the fourth installment in the Matrix series began production in early January. Wachowski mentioned that many themes from the original films are even more relevant today, and she’s glad to work with her “brilliant friends” again.
The new movie has a star-studded cast, including Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, known for his role in “Aquaman,” with Carrie-Anne Moss returning as Trinity alongside Keanu’s Neo.
Meanwhile, Alexandra Grant is an artist and philanthropist who has been working in the arts since she graduated from Swarthmore College in 1994. Known for her use of language in sculpture, painting, and drawing, she has exhibited in prestigious spaces worldwide.
Grant and Keanu have a professional history dating back to their first collaboration on a grown-up’s picture book, “Ode to Happiness,” in 2011. They later worked together on “Shadows,” a book of poetry and dark silhouette images of Reeves taken by Grant.
Since then, they’ve been seen at art galleries, book signings, and even traveling to Germany for work. Despite rumors about when they started dating, Jennifer Tilly told Page Six earlier this month that the couple has been together for “years.”
