Keanu Reeves doesn’t have to be in a movie to be a hero.
The 54-year-old actor was on a United flight from San Francisco to Los Angeles on Saturday when the plane had to make an emergency landing in Bakersfield, Calif., according to USA Today.
Reeves hardly missed a beat, allegedly taking the lead in figuring out the best way to complete the last 100 miles from Bakersfield to Los Angeles.
The “Matrix” star’s everyday heroics were captured on the Instagram story of Brian Rea, a freelance cartoonist who illustrates The New York Times’ “Modern Love” column, and recorded by other social media users who posted the video on Twitter.

After announcements that they would complete their trip on a bus, Reeves could be seen discussing the logistics of the trip and waiting for their luggage with other passengers at the Bakersfield airport.
The next video clip showed the “John Wick” actor in a van with other passengers, reading facts about Burbank and playing country music from his phone.
Reeves also took pictures with several of his fellow passengers, which they posted on Twitter.

That time when your flight out from #GDC almost crashes and you have to emergency land in a remote airport but at least Keanu Reeves is having as bad a day as you are. pic.twitter.com/XSPa1wlNuO
