It seems Keanu Reeves can do no wrong.

Last week, the Hollywood megastar surprised a UK couple by gatecrashing their wedding in Northamptonshire, England.

Newlyweds Niki and James Roadnight got the surprise of their life when they learned that the Matrix actor was staying in the same hotel where they were hosting their wedding reception.

More surprising still was the fact that - when the groom bumped into him at the hotel bar - Reeves agreed to join them in celebrating their special day.

Check out their wedding pictures below:

In an interview on Good Morning Britain, the couple explained how they first met their special wedding guest - and gushed over the star's humility and charm.

"We heard there was a special guest staying. We found him at the courtyard at the back so I introduced myself and asked for some photos. He ate his dinner and then he came over an hour later," they explained to presenters Ben Shephard and Kate Garraway.

"I said welcome to our wedding would you like a drink. He said he was happy to pose for pictures with the guests and he said yeah no problem," Niki continued, adding: "He was so humble and charismatic."

"The wedding was amazing as it was but having him there was the cherry on top," her new husband chimed in. He added that the online reaction to the wedding snaps has been "insane".

"The reaction has been mad it's gone global! We can't believe it," he said.

According to a report by MailOnline, Reeves is staying at the four-star hotel where Niki and James tied the knot while filming an untitled four-part docuseries.

The show is expected to focus on F1 managing director Ross Brawn, and per Variety will also feature the likes of former Ferrari chairman Luca di Montezemolo and drivers Jenson Button and Rubens Barrichello.

Meanwhile, this is not the first wedding the John Wick star has gatecrashed.

Back in 2018, Reeves photobombed a couple on their way to the altar when he ran into them on the streets of New York City.

A few months later, he was once again pictured with a couple on their way to be married at the three-star Dream Inn in Santa Cruz, California.
