HONG KONG: Hollywood movie star Keanu Reeves said the making of supernatural thriller ‘Constantine’ has not changed his beliefs about religion but admitted he

was now less sceptical about heaven and hell.

Currently on a three-day promotional tour for the film in Hong Kong, Reeves talked of his love for his character, a chain-smoking exorcist who patrols the border of heaven and hell, fighting with half-breed angels and demons. But the movie, an adaptation of the DC-Vertigo comic book, did not change his stance as an atheist. “I wasn’t raised in any special denominations and I haven’t taken on any so far,” he said. “I used to have doubts (about heaven and hell) and now I doubt less,” said the star of ‘Matrix’ and ‘Speed’. To prepare the role, the 40-year-old screen heart-throb, who recently received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, said he had to visit real-life exorcists to see them in action. — AFP
