What with his return in John Wick: Chapter 3–Parabellum and notable guest roles in Always Be My Maybe and Toy Story 4, the Keanuissance seems well on its way in 2019. The actor's formidable on-screen presence and all those viral stories about his good humor IRL have cemented him as one of our favorite celebrities of the year. But let's be honest: Keanu never really went away. He's been around, looking beautiful and seeming kind, since we first met him in the mid-'80s. Here's the proof: 35 years of Keanu Reeves looking like the treasure that he is.
