Immortal celebrities are now a thing. As the information age allows us to digitize more and more images, and advanced search engines allow us to comb through them, we can identify photographs and portraits from the past that look like well-known people from the present day.
Paranormal should never be the first explanation for these phenomena, since the whole point of paranormal events is that they are by nature unlikely and unusual. On the other hand, some of these likenesses from the past are awfully close their modern-day counterparts.
Keanu Reeves has been the subject of immortal speculation for some time. There’s even a whole website dedicated to exposing the actor’s immortal nature and previous identities, keanuisimmortal.com. The site notes that he barely seems to age, and lists his dopplegangers from the past. There are only two so far, and one of them is kind of a stretch, but still. According to the website, these are Keanu’s confirmed identities through the ages.
Charlemagne (748-814)
Aside from the striking resemblance, the account of the death of Charlemagne rise suspicion.First of all he crowned his son just before dying (just like he knew he was going to “die”) secondly his burial was rushed during cold weather this is a clear hint that they needed to bury a body to not rise any suspicion.
Paul Mounet (1847-1922)
Aside from the striking resemblance, there are sevaral facts that without any reasonable doubt shows that Paul Mounet is Keanu Reeves. He was a doctor first and then an actor, the rise of the medical science could’ve been a problem to an immortal, by becoming a baron of the medicine he gained protection from any kind of inquiry about his everlasting appearance. Paul Mounet allegedly died in 1922 although his body was never found.
Charlemagne is probably a stretch. The main point of resemblance is that he has a similar long, oval face, but tons of people look like that. Also, we have a number of conflicting portraits of him, and when that happens it’s easy to look through them and pick the best match.
On the other hand, take a look at the portrait accompanying this article. That’s not a promo piece of Keanu Reeves from Bram Stoker’s Dracula or something. That’s Paul Mounet, and the resemblance is uncanny. If his body was really never found, maybe he lived on after all.
