Norman Reedus on Meeting Keanu Reeves at a Red Light, His Love of Cher & Owning Too Many Motorcycles

[@lindafassett582]

Norman comes across as such an authentic kind of guy. I wish there were more people like him.

[@mleh2512]

And, just like that, I’m on Twitter

[@evelynbegay2495]

I completely agree. We, as an audience, know sometimes so little about many actors. Norman strikes a chord of honesty by revealing his fascination with Cher, motorcycles, his doll playing, but also his photography. Fun interview.

[@dspencer1969]

@lindafassett582 Met Norman in Tyrone Ga. 2016. He was in a hurry but still gave a TWD fan a few minutes while he gassed up his bike. This is how to properly build a fan base, didn't have to chat but did and let me take a photo. All around good dude.

[@MyKingdomForAK9]

He's such a likeable human. 🏵

[@DebraBolduc]

Norman you're a delight .... a badass delight.

[@TheAbabab77]

What a down to earth, nromal and humble dude. More Normans and Keanus please.

[@AshleyWilson-nx1v]

Each moment is unique and unforgettable, but the first and second moments I met Keanu Reeves during his 2023 tour were truly extraordinary. Sharing a few words with him, I glimpsed an extraordinary human being- so sensitive, humble, and overflowing with kindness. Keanu, I love you.

[@DianaFoster-]

It's amazing when Keanu smiles and has happy eyes . You can see that he is the happiest with Dogstar. I wish I could meet him as well during this tour.

[@AngelaBetasso]

I wish I could have the same experience and have a conversation with him! 😊 There are thousands of questions I'd love to ask, like how someone could possibly have a private meeting with him. I hope it's actually possible to meet him in person! 🤞✨

[@AshleyWilson-nx1v]

Surprisingly, I told him he’s the most handsome man on earth and asked if it’s possible for top fans to meet him in person. I couldn't believe it when he mentioned meeting fans who are part of an exclusive members club!

[@AshleyWilson-nx1v]

I had a second encounter with Keanu Reeves through Radiant Reservation. After joining the exclusive members club, I requested a meeting, and it was unforgettable. He spoke about breeding horses and how he started a nonprofit organization in response to his sister’s struggle. His life has been a journey of love, loss, and heartbreak, all hidden beneath his captivating smile.

I just looked this up. J. J. Armes is still alive at age 91. Crazy.

Wouldn't it be crazy if you're J.J. Armes?!?

Don't jynx it

Please Jimmy bring JJ on.

My brother had that "action figure" and dude is still alive...get him on the show

[@orawal]

His childlike joy and innocence are adorable

[@jknight985]

I don't think child-like but adult.

[@Gor3whpr3]

Until you realize he's not a good person

Holy poop! As long as it's not f**ked up by DEI (I'm autistic BTW) that would be awesome....almost regardless of the storyline ;P

Had the privilege of interviewing Norman in person face to face for the new movie and he was extremely nice to me and went out of his way to talk to me before the interview! One of the most down to earth actors I’ve met. So glad he is still doing well! 🍿

[@CathyTurnerartfromtheheart]

What a cooooooool guy

[@ReiverBlue1971]

What a wonderful chap! He has his passions and loves and isn't afraid to admit what he empathises with.

Mr.Reedus is always amusing and a great storyteller. I can't wait to see him in the new ," John Wick " movie and possibly a J.J. Armes film. But would J.J. be a comedy or drama ?

[@shereebrolaski1791]

As he’d never be able to keep a straight face

[@aydensmommy662010]

He did a very small cameo as Daryl during a weekend update segment a while back. That's the closest he, and all the other TWD cast has gotten on SNL

[@wisdomprepper]

@@aydensmommy662010 Yeah, I saw that. And it was an extremely short cameo on Weekend Update. I hope he gets to host is what I meant.

[@olds97lss]

"It's not meant to happen, I'll try next year" - I don't know why, but that sounded so much like Mitch Hedberg to me. Not only what he said, but the voice and cadence of it was spot on! I could listen to Norman talk all day long about what he does.

[@cloudie_s]

this was so pleasant to watch. I smiled the whole time.

[@emily364]

I can't wait to see the movie!!!✨️✨️

[@robhos6891]

I thought he was going the other way with the story and say he went up to the top of Mt. Fuji and Keanu Reeves just happened to be there. I wouldn't put it past Keanu 😂🤣

[@checho1281]

I was lucky to see him once just talking to someone outside his house. I did a double take to see him because he had his two hooks on. At that moment I didn't know who he was until I learned about his story later on. Cool memory.

[@TheBlackenedrose00]

He’s still alive guys!!! Still lives here in El Paso but his big house got torn down and his cats were sold. Met him once and definitely weird in shaking his hands.

[@mlg7728]

Best neighbours we had as kids were the biker gang across the road. They stood up for us when my father was being abusive and even invited us over for bbqs. My mom took in one of their girlfriends when she found out she was expecting. Nicest people ever. Dont judge people on how they look. Enjoy today

[@SandraNelson063]

You're right. The first " biker " gangs were made up of WWII veterans. Guys who had been through so much Hell , they couldn't deal with ordinary civilians any more. They formed groups of traveling motorcycle enthusiasts, because they understood each other, and needed family. They were hard cases, very scary folks. They were not criminals. It was LATER that a criminal element thought that it was cool to ride bikes, dress up in leather, and become menaces. They give decent riders a bad name.

[@davidgalbreath3477]

Legend!

[@Astronautin]

[@vlvr]

Wow. Never tuned in to this guy because I hated Walking Dead but he seems nice, sincere and cool. Will have to check out his other stuff.

[@jadefire1814]

He's so amazing in The BoonDock Saints. Also co-starring with the incredible Alan Rickman in Dark Harbor.

[@waynecoles6041]

I am disappointed the story didn't end up with "I was driving up mount Fuji with two bald monks... and... as we got to the top... Keanu was just sitting there meditating..."
