Keanu Reeves continued to be the most green flag man in Hollywood after his reaction to being straddled by another actor.
The John Wick star, 60, has a reputation for being the kindest, most gentlemanly person in showbusiness, regularly going viral for his generous acts such as giving millions of dollars to charity, and taking the time to show his appreciation for film crew members.
He's never embroiled in scandal, nor is he ever really seen in any bad mood – there's a reason he's been dubbed the internet's husband.
And his glowing streak continues after he left fans 'dying' after his reaction to Broadway star Jonathan Groff straddling him at the Tony Awards.
The Mindhunter star performed a medley of songs from Just In Time at the star-studded event, walking into the crowd.
Keanu, who was sitting in the front row, found himself between Jonathan's legs as he stood on the Matrix star's armrests.
But he didn't seem to mind at all, smiling away into the camera and holding his hands up in a horns sign.
As Jonathan bent lower and lower while belting out the lyrics, Keanu jokingly appeared shocked before beaming away.
It was an unusual reunion for the pair who both starred alongside each other in 2021's The Matrix: Resurrections, with Keanu reprising his iconic role as Neo and Jonathan appearing as Agent Smith.
Fans have been quick to heap praise on Keanu and Jonathan, with many saying they 'don't know who is luckier' in this situation.
'Further proof Keanu is the best,' tattooedsiren wrote on Instagram.
Mjms323 added: 'Keanu Reeves just got a face full of Jonathan Groff's ass and I'm not sure which one I'm more jealous of.'
Cooper_holly said what many of us are thinking: 'Jonathan Groff flirting with and singing to Keanu Reeves wasn't something I had on my Tonys bingo card but I'm here for it.'
Takarakanashi described the moment as their 'Roman Empire', while Thatssoannie_ said it will live in their mind rent-free for some time. More Trending
'Jonathan Groff climbing on Keanu Reeves and groping him on live tv happy pride month everyone,' MarcelinaRose_ wrote.
Darnthatdave added: 'Jonathan Groff and Keanu Reeves on the Tonys will fuel fantasies for decades.'
Keanu is set to make his Broadway debut alongside Bill and Ted co-star Alex Winter in Waiting for Godot, a show that follows 'two friends searching for meaning in an absurd world.'
They sat alongside each other at the event, with Alex positioned as close as possible to the action between Keanu and Jonathan that is sending the internet wild.

Watch Me (Whip/Nae Nae) rapper Silentó sentenced to 30 years for killing cousin
Rapper Silentó has been sentenced to 30 years in prison for the fatal shooting of his cousin, four years ago. In 2021, the musician best known for his viral song Watch Me (Whip/Nae Nae) was arrested on charges relating to the death of Frederick Rooks. Rooks, 34, was found with multiple gunshot wounds on January 21 and died from his injuries. Silentó, real name Ricky Lamar Hawk, pleaded guilty but mentally ill to the charges and took a plea deal to reduce the charges, as reported by Variety. He pleaded guilty to voluntary manslaughter, aggravated assault, possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony and concealing the death of another. Another felony murder charge was dropped as part of this plea agreement. Hawk, 27, will serve 30 years in prison but will get credit for time served, having been behind bars since February 2021. At the time of his arrest, his publicist, Chanel Hudson, posted on social media about his mental health issues. She wrote: 'Over the past several years, Ricky has been suffering immensely from a series of mental illnesses. We will continue in his efforts of treatment, but we ask in the meantime the public uplift him and his family in immediate prayer & positive energy!!' He had previously been arrested in 2020 after allegedly wielding a hatchet while searching for his girlfriend. According to police reports of the incident, he had walked into a random house demanding to see his girlfriend until a friend arrived and informed him it was the wrong home. Another alleged incident in late 2020 saw the rapper pulled over on his way from a nightclub when he was spotted driving at 143mph in a 65mph zone. He was reportedly swerving in and out of cars and said he was 'not a regular person' and claimed people were following him. Hawk rose to fame in 2015 with debut single Watch Me (Whip/Nae Nae), which was released while he was still in high school. The song and its accompanying dance became one of the biggest trends of the year, reaching number three on the Billboard Hot 100. More Trending Despite some critics blasting the track as irritating, Watch Me earned him a nomination for Song of the Summer at the MTV Video Music Awards. The track was also nominated for R&B/Hip-Hop Song at the Teen Choice Awards the same year, although it did not win either award. Hawk has not seen the heights of fame since, with Hudson claiming he had struggled to cope and attempted suicide in the years after his hit. He confessed to the killing shortly after Rooks' body was found and authorities matched bullet casings to the gun he had in his possession during the arrest. Got a story?

Race Across The World 2025 winners revealed after nail-biting final dash
To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video The winners of BBC One's Race Across the World 2025 have been revealed following a thrilling conclusion. After travelling thousands of kilometres across China, Nepal and India, one pair claimed the £20,000 prize after reaching the final checkpoint in Kanniyakumari. The final leg was the closest the teams had been in 51 days, with just 19 minutes separating first and second place. However, for the first time in the show's history, a mother and son pairing have won after Caroline and Tom were declared winners following the 14,100km race across the world's largest continent, Asia. Sprinting to the finish line, sisters Elizabeth and Letitia, who have remained consistent throughout the race, came in second place. They were followed by teenage couple Fin and Sioned, while brothers Brian and Melvyn, came in fourth. It was a race to find a boat towards the fishing village of Arockiapuram and there, find the Vattakottai Fort where the last and final sign in book was waiting. As Caroline and Tom turned to the page to discover they had reached the final checkpoint in first place, they hugged, overcome with emotion. An emotional Caroline cried: 'We must never doubt ourselves again. Ever, ever, ever.' Writing their names in the book, Tom said: 'That's a really good feeling, I'm lost for words, I can't believe it. 51 days racing through countries I never thought I'd go to, I never thought we'd come this far, I never thought we'd achieve so much and I've never been prouder of my mum – she got me through it.' As sisters Elizabeth and Letitia turned the page to claim second place, Elizabeth said: 'Ah Tom and Caroline, so close, 19 minutes,' with Letitia adding: 'I'm proud of us.' Just 45 minutes behind the winners, Fin and Sioned arrived in third place. Fin said: 'We've done well.' He added: 'It would have been incredible to have come first, but obviously we can't all come first.. we've gone more than 12000km…' Sioned continued: 'It's been more than just the distance, it's been a journey for us.' Brian and Melvyn, who arrived in fourth place, only 3 hours and 5 minutes behind race winners, said: 'We've done very well actually. Really pleased for the guys that have won it. Beer? Desperately, and definitely!' The final episode saw Caroline and Tom began the last leg in the lead, 6 hours and 54 minutes ahead of Elizabeth and Letitia. They started from the 7th checkpoint, Panaji in Goa with just over 1000km to traverse across the southern Indian states to reach the finish line at the southernmost tip of India in Kanniyakumari. Arriving into Kanniyakumari by taxi, Tom said how nervous he was, and worried more when he exclaimed: 'I've just seen Fin and Sioned, I promise you, I have, oh no.' Getting caught in a traffic jam, Caroline and Tom were visibly despondent. Receiving their first instructions to reach the tip of India, Caroline and Tom raced through huge crowds of people trying to watch the incredible sunrise but with little time to appreciate the stunning views: 'It's a nice sunrise, bit hard to focus on, but it's nice.' Hot on Caroline and Tom's heels, Elizabeth and Letitia received the next instructions to proceed on foot to the front of Our Lady of Ransom Shrine. Not hesitating to ask multiple people for help, the teams made their way and discovered they must then take a boat to Arockiapuram fishing village. Caroline and Tom secured a boat for 1000 rupees, stressing that they were in a race and the need for speed to their driver. Still worried about having seen Fin and Sioned, Tom said: 'I still can't see Fin and Sioned, I don't know if they can see us.' The teams received a message instructing them to head on foot to the Vattakottai Fort. Running through the winding streets, trying to find the beach, Tom said: 'It's so far out of the way.' On reaching the entrance to the Fort, Caroline and Tom ran in with Caroline asking 'Can you see anyone else, Thomas?' and Tom replying; 'I don't see anyone.' The pair reached the book and discovered they had won the race of a lifetime and a prize of £20,000. Over the eight-part series, the four pairs have raced over 14,000km over 51 days. More Trending The teams have successfully journeyed across the world's largest continent, Asia, taking in three of its most diverse and fascinating nations – China, Nepal and India. They've had to navigate crowds, congestion and cultural barriers, as well as a multitude of vast ranging landscapes on an epic journey from The Great Wall of China in northeastern China all the way to the southernmost tip of India – Kanniyakumari – all without smartphones, internet access and bank cards, and armed only with the cash equivalent of flying the route. Following the final episode of Race Across the World, the teams will return for a heart-warming reunion celebration, which airs at 9pm on Wednesday 18th June on BBC One.
