A monarch found himself in an unusual role, not as a ruler, but as a die-hard fan of none other than Keanu Reeves, in a tale that sounds like it was plucked straight from the pages of an action-packed movie script. The 59-year-old, a universally beloved figure in the entertainment world, drew the king into an extraordinary moment during the filming of John Wick 4.

In an intriguing twist that infused a royal touch into the production of John Wick 4, the King of Jordan extended a gracious gesture to none other than Hollywood’s beloved Keanu Reeves.

The latest installment of the popular action franchise takes legendary assassin John Wick, played by Reeves, on an international journey, bringing him to the Moroccan desert to confront The Elder, whom he first encountered in John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum.

 Filming on location in Jordan, director Chad Stahelski revealed that the King of Jordan played a key role in capturing breathtaking aerial shots of the desert. In an interview with Buzzfeed, he said,
“We were trying to get to a location we couldn’t access, and he was nice enough to lend us a helicopter to fly the crew out to get the sunrise shot that you see in the movie.” 
Further, the screenwriter added,
“The King gave you a helicopter to get a shot because [he’s] a fan of John Wick. It doesn’t get much cooler than that: Keanu is such a legendary movie star that a king wanted to give him a helping hand.”
This generous act stemmed from the king’s admiration for John Wick. The unexpected collaboration between royalty and Hollywood stands as proof of cinema’s ability to connect disparate worlds, uniting a monarch and an actor in an exhilarating cinematic endeavor.

It underscores the universal allure of Reeves and the enchantment of filmmaking that transcends boundaries.

Notably, John Wick 4 has already achieved critical success at the box office, marking a significant milestone for the franchise.
