Bill & Ted ’s Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter Tell High School Graduates to 'Be Excellent to Each Other’

Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter had a special message for the graduating class of San Dimas High School.

On Tuesday, the two Bill & Ted stars made time to congratulate the seniors of the California school for the students' virtual graduation in a video that perfectly channeled their movie characters.

"We know it's a tough time right now and you're having to do this virtual graduation," Winter, 54, said. "We want to wish you the best of luck moving forward."

Reeves, 55, added, "Yeah, congratulations to the graduating class of 2020. Well done!"

"But most importantly, we wanted to tell you to be excellent to each other," Winter said.

"And party on," Reeves quipped.

The Bill & Ted franchise, which first debuted with 1989's Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure, takes place in San Dimas, with their characters playing San Dimas High School students.
