Three Reasons Why Keanu Reeves And Winona Ryder Should Turn Dating Rumours Into Reality
Posted by Molly Friedman at 9:45 AM on May 22, 2008
Hearing that Keanu Reeves and Winona Ryder may be dating is like winning the Fantasy Celebrity Hookups jackpot. Both of these lovable n'er-do-wells have been down on their luck recently, with a series of DOA movies, rumoured engagements that didn't pan out, and for Winona, the likes of Britney Spears and Lindsay Lohan stealing her stealing act. So whether or not the rumours are actually true, we're throwing these two stars' caution to the wind for them and giving them three good reasons why they most definitely should be, after the jump.
1. They already have a sex tape.And it's a cartoon! The two already played on-screen love interests in the Richard Linklater druggie film A Scanner Darkly, and though we barely had a clue which drugs Winona's character was on and when, we do recall a midnight seduction scene in which Keanu sleeps over. Sure, he has some kind of nightmare involving dead blondes in the bed, but all that matters is the fact that these two have no need to film their own inevitably released sex tape.
2. They can both fuck up as much as possible. Let's face it, each of them has made a lot of dumb moves in their lives and their careers. From the shoplifting scandal to Street Kings, they both know what it's like to be judged by others, so they probably won't pass untoward and unreasonable judgements on each other.
3. We really need a reason to go see their movie.As much as we adore Daniel Day-Lewis and his wife Rebecca Miller, her last directorial attempt came in the form of The Ballad Of Jack And Rose, a movie we wanted to love desperately but found ourselves sleeping through. She's currently directing Keanu and Winona in an adaptation of her novel The Private Lives Of Pippa Lee, starring Robin Wright Penn, essentially her acting equivalent in both talent and watchability.

Do a Google image search on Keanu and check it out - either he owns MANY grey tee shirts, or it's the same dirty, smelly one he's been sporting for lo these many months.
I really think he's a bit too impressed with his thespian talents, and tends to over reach.
Stick to the grunge buds and HeWhores, dude.

I am rooting for this to happen. I love them both. He can move in with her and give up the nomad lifestyle he's been leading.

Reason #6: "I myself am... strange and unusual."

Anyone asked David Geffen what he thinks of all this?
Oh, right. That rumor was debunked.

How did you forget about Bram Stoker's Dracula? Given, the only person I wanted her to bone in that movie was Gary Oldman.

Rumor from the set of A Scanner Darkly was that Wynona had the mad hots for Keanu and he was indifferent. She even took to insisting that PA's shoo away Keanu's autograph seekers--apparently the bane of W's existence--though he seemed happy enough to sign for whomever on whatever.
Jealous of autograph seekers? Run, Keanu, ruuuun!

He surely must be the last Hollywood actor in that age/income group that she HASN'T had by now.

I'm just afraid she'll steal his Oscar.

#5. Winona always dates rock guys so Keanu's bass playing will improve by osmosis.
Good for both of them! Every movie set needs some rumored romance, true or false.

So...#3 pretty much sums up why this rumor even exists.

After the Matrix does Keanu even need the work?

Why don't we just talk about the romantic possibilities between Ally Sheedy and Judd Nelson?

Maybe they could star together in an ambitious blockbuster and nearly ruin it due to dubious accents.
Wait... Isn't that named "Bram Stoker's Dracula"????

You forgot #4. She could shoplift clean clothes and shoes for him.

Kevin Smith should've just called it a day and made his next film Bill&Ted Make a Porno with the Heathers. It would've stopped the downward trajectory of all of their careers, for sure.
