Keanu Reeves is once again being courted to join the resistance and save humanity … only this time it’s not Morpheus … it’s an obsessed fan who thinks “The Matrix” is real life.
According to legal docs … the LAPD is looking for a guy who showed up at the actor’s home last October and placed a FedEx envelope in his mailbox, offering up a cell phone number with this instruction: “I will call the cell provided tomorrow. We need to meet as I have already started building the new world. #masterbuilder.”
Cops believe the guy has an obsession with Keanu’s character, Neo, from “The Matrix” movies … the cell phone reference is actually a nod to the first movie.
Keanu told cops he’s afraid for his safety because the guy knows where he lives … and he thinks the guy suffers from some type of mental disorder.
The LAPD is on the case.
