Keanu Reeves is remembering Somethings Gotta Give co-star Diane Keaton following the news of her death on Saturday.
While premiering his new film Good Fortune in New York, Reeves reflected on their time together, telling The Hollywood Reporter, I had the wonderful opportunity to work with her and she was a very special artist and person. Very unique and just what a wonderful artist.
The two starred together in Nancy Meyers 2003 rom-com, with Keatons playwrightErica Barry juggling the affections of both a charming young doctor (Reeves) and a wealthy record company owner (Jack Nicholson). Keaton was nominated for an Oscar for the role, and the pair also reunited as presenters at the 2020 Academy Awards. Reeves comments come just a few hours after Meyers took to social media for her own tribute, writing on Instagram after the outpouring of reactions, As a movie lover, Im with you all we have lost a giant. A brilliant actress who time and again laid herself bare to tell our stories. As a woman, I lost a friend of almost 40 years at times over those years, she felt like a sister because we shared so many truly memorable experiences. As a filmmaker, Ive lost a connection with an actress that one can only dream of.
The filmmaker also specifically referenced Somethings Gotta Give in her post, remembering, When I needed her to cry in scene after scene in Somethings Gotta Give, she went at it hard and then somehow made it funny. And I remember she would sometimes spin in a kind of goofy circle before a take to purposely get herself off balance or whatever she needed to shed so she could be in the moment.
She was fearless, she was like nobody ever, she was born to be a movie star, her laugh could make your day and for me, knowing her and working with her changed my life, Meyers continued. Thank you Di. Ill miss you forever.
