Keanu Reeves’ good-guy-ness even extends to a convicted thief.
The money was budgeted to complete Rinsch’s sci-fi series called “White Horse,” but Rinsch was accused of squandering it on luxury cars and crypto investments, Variety reported.
“I am writing in support of Carl Rinsch in connection with his upcoming sentencing,” Reeves began in a May 1 letter obtained by Deadline this week. “I do not know the details of this case. But based upon what I do know about Carl, I did want to take the opportunity to write on his behalf, in the hope that his sentence might be tempered with measures of leniency and mercy as well as justice.”
“I am, of course, not a therapist or psychologist,” the “Matrix” hero continued. “I write instead as an artistic peer of Carl’s, and as a friend. In my opinion, Carl can self-sabotage by amplifying the scale, scope and landscape of what had been negotiated, accordingly placing himself and his counterparties at odds.”
“I hope you are able to find leniency for this man,” Reeves concluded. “To the extent you deem appropriate, I believe such leniency would be a healing act, to go along with the punishment he will live with. Thank you for your consideration.”
