He may be known as one of Hollywood’s biggest movie stars, but it seems Keanu Reeves can add ‘knight in shining armour’ to his resume.
A fan, based in Melbourne, has recalled the ‘surreal’ moment the actor came to her aid when she got lost in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles, three years ago.
In an interview with the Herald Sun, Nicole Lewis-Jacobs said she was ‘blown away’ by Keanu’s kindness and is now desperate to thank him in person.

Nicole told the publication she had been holidaying in Beverly Hills, but ended up getting lost one day and bumped into Keanu in a local cafe.
She explained how Keanu had offered her to give her a lift in his Porsche to where she was headed, but Nicole admits she was reluctant to get into a car with a stranger.
She had no idea who the A-lister actually was, prompting Keanu to laugh and introduce himself.
