Yet, this isn’t the first time Keanu Reeves has taken a pay cut to help others. In 1997, Keanu was offered the chance to star in an upcoming movie entitled The Devil’s Advocate. The casting directors were so keen to get the actor on board.
They originally sacrificed hiring Al Pacino to star alongside him, as they could not afford both of them for the one movie. Nevertheless, Keanu knew that Pacino would be a great asset to the movie, and he was keen to work alongside the acting legend. So, he offered to take a drastic pay cut.

Amazingly, Keanu Reeves still gets starstruck when he meets his acting heroes, and does anything he possibly can to work alongside them and learn from their talent.
In 2000, Keanu once again agreed to take a pay cut so the directors and producers could cast Gene Hackman in the movie The Replacements. Keanu was more than happy to do so, as he later noted to the New York Post that he was looking forward to the “really great acting experience” alongside his hero.
