Keanu Reeves - Pilot
Keanu Reeves brings the legendary mecha pilot to life in Secret Level's "Armored Core" episode.
The pilot is later revealed to be an augmented human hearing a certain voice, which allows him to connect seamlessly with his mech.
While not much is known about the pilot's origins, it looks like he is based on the protagonist of Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon, C4-621. In the game, C4-621 can also hear voices in his head.
Given that he is considered an outcast, the pilot finds his purpose by fulfilling his mission of becoming an ace pilot of his mech. His latest mission involves finding others like him and eliminating them by doing whatever means necessary.
Reeves is part of the cast of Sonic the Hedgehog 3 as the voice of its main villain, Shadow. The seasoned actor is also known for his roles in the John Wick movies, The Matrix, and Toy Story 4.
