BERLIN -- Keanu Reeves will soon add a Bambi, one of Germany's top media honors, to his trophy case.

The "Matrix" star will be honored in the best international actor category at the Bambi ceremony Nov. 27 in the German town of Offenburg near the French border.

Among the honorees will be Meg Ryan and local action hero Til Schweiger who, ironically, turned down a supporting role in the original "Matrix."

Reeves's latest, "The Day the Earth Stood Still," opens in Germany on Dec. 11.
