The actor, 56, is widely considered to be one of the nicest men in Hollywood, and he proved it once again by offering his seat to a woman who was struggling with a shopping bag.

This resurfaced video comes after Keanu was recently praised for dodging a question about "what girls he likes" in an unearthed interview.

Take a look at this snippet from the interview in the video below:

The video features a young Keanu on an episode of the British light entertainment TV show The Big Breakfast, broadcast in 1994.

The interviewer asks him: "What sort of girls do you like?"

Then, replying like a true king, he said: "Oh gosh. What sort of girls do I like? They're all angels."

The clip won widespread praise on TikTok where it was reposted.

One person wrote: "Why is he so pure we need to protect this human being forever."
