Reeves met the groom on his wedding day at the bar of a 4-star hotel in Daventry and promised to come to the reception.

James Roadnight and bride Nikki were then thrilled when the actor turned up at Fawsley Hall Hotel & Spa, and happily took photos with the couple.

Later, the Matrix actor walked into The Fox and Hounds in Charwelton, and happily mingled with customers and posed for photos.

The bar's owner Danny Ricks was shocked when the film star entered and sat down at a table.

"It's not every day you get a Hollywood star walk into your pub. It made everyone's evening."

The 57-year-old ate a Caesar salad and appetizer followed by a main course of falafel—and washed it all down with "quite a few double whiskies."

"It was bizarre. I had to do a double take when he walked in as I couldn't quite believe my eyes. I thought 'that guy looks quite a lot like Keanu Reeves.'

"He was just a down-to-earth guy and was really nice to everyone. Everything nice you would think about him was all true.

"He stood and took photos with customers and staff. Nothing was too much for him, he took plenty of time to chat with everybody.

"We managed to stay professional until the end of his visit, but of course, we had to get a picture with him.

"He was such a top bloke and absolutely lovely—and he certainly likes his whisky," Danny gushed.
