Home and Away star Ada Nicodemou shares sweet throwback clip with US actor Keanu Reeves on social media: '26 years ago'
Ada Nicodemou looked almost unrecognisable on Tuesday as she shared a throwback video of herself performing a cameo in The Matrix across from Keanu Reeves in 1999.
The clip, which was taken when the Home and Away star, 47, was just 21 years old, saw Ada star as the minor character Dujour, also known as the White Rabbit Girl.
She looked decades younger than her years in the video as she sported a futuristic up-do and shared a few lines with Keanu, 60, who played the lead character Neo in the science fiction action franchise.
'#OnThisDay 26 years ago #TheMatrix was released & I had a cameo as the White Rabbit Girl, Dujour,' Ada wrote in the caption alongside the throwback video.
Ada was no stranger to acting when she was cast in the film, though she had only starred on Australian TV at that point.
The soap star kick started her screen career in 1994 when she played Katerina Ioannou in TV serial Heartbreak High.

She starred in the show until 1997 and also had roles in Police Rescue and Breakers before landing her long-time gig on Home and Away in 2000.
It comes after Ada and her on-screen-off-screen boyfriend James Stewart took to Instagram on Sunday to share a sweet collection of pictures celebrating their one year anniversary at Mimi's in Sydney.
'Just perfect,' Ada captioned the post, which showed the happy couple enjoying a delicious meal of oysters, caviar and bubbles at the iconic eatery.
In the first picture, the happy couple could be seen with giant grins on their faces as they posed with a card congratulating them on their milestone moment.
In the snaps, Ada wore a maroon-coloured, strapless dress with her brunette locks falling over her shoulders.
She accessorised the ensemble with a $5,300 Chanel purse, a $19,300 Cartier Love Bracelet and Rolex Datejust watch, which retails for around $12,189.
Ada recently revealed how her Home and Away co-stars discovered her off-screen relationship with James.
The soap stars, whose characters are married on the Channel Seven show, were first linked in 2024 when they were seen sharing a kiss on Anzac Day before Ada confirmed their romance in a magazine interview...

Speaking on Mamamia's No Filter podcast, the actress revealed she had only told a small group of people she was 'close with' on set before 'word got around' about the couple's off-screen relationship.
'I figured I didn't need to tell anyone else,' she explained.
'We didn't need a group email, people just worked it out.'
Elsewhere in the interview, Ada admitted growing feelings for her television co-star James was 'weird' at first.
'Jimmy and I have known each other for 25 to 30 years and there were no feelings for a really, really long time. So I was shocked when I started having feelings,' she said.
'There was this chemistry for the first time—this spark that happened that wasn't there before and it was weird.'
In July, Ada finally broke her silence on her romance with James after months of speculation.
She confirmed she was dating her longtime co-star James in a magazine interview, describing their romance as 'unexpected'.
'Jimmy and I are together, yes. It's only early days. It's very recent and unexpected. I'm super happy. It's really lovely,' she told Stellar Magazine.
But she insisted their Home and Away characters Leah Patterson and Justin Morgan getting married on-screen was not an early sign of their real-life romance.
The couple began dating after Ada split from her ex-partner Adam Rigby just before Christmas in 2023 and James finalised his divorce from Sarah Roberts in March 2024....
