The news of Keanu Reeves and Winona Ryder being technically married left many shocked and amazed. During an interview with Esquire, Reeves was once again questioned about his reel marriage with Ryder and that is it true.

Replying to the question, Reeve said, "We did a whole take of a marriage ceremony with real priests. Winona says we are. Coppola says we are. So I guess we're married under the eyes of God."

Coppola told The Guardian, "In a sense, when we were all done, we realized that Keanu and Winona really are married as a result of this scene and this ceremony."
