The "Matrix" star has sought for backed up against his home intruder.

A-list actor Keanu Reeves has applied on Thursday to get a restraining order against a female intruder, who broke into his home and swam in his pool last month.

The Los Angeles court granted it and issued a temporary restraining order against the woman, identified as Kerry Colen Raus, who has been ordered to stay at least 100 yards away from the actor and his property in Los Angeles, California.

It can be recalled that in the morning hours of September 15, the 50-year-old woman entered the actor's home at Hollywood Hills in Los Angeles through the front gate that was left open by a cleaning crew.

After she got in, she quickly made herself comfortable by getting naked, using Reeves' shower, and taking a skinny-dip in the pool.

During her arrest, Raus was reportedly "behaving erratically" and told police that she believed Reeves could help her find her abducted father "Ray Winstone," who she claims has been taken by the government and put into witness protection.

The woman was already taken to a psychiatric hospital.

However, Reeves fears it is only a matter of time before she is released and returns to his house.

In his sworn declaration, the 50-year-old actor said he does not know Raus.

Although she did not make a verbal threat, Reeves said her "delusional belief that I invited her onto my property presents a reasonable threat that she will attempt further trespass into my home or otherwise cause injury to me."

The "Speed" actor wanted the restraining order to last five years because of the woman's "harassing, unprivileged, and threatening stalking conduct."

The court scheduled to hear his appeal on October 22.

Raus was the second female intruder, who entered the actor's home last month.

During the first break-in incident last September 12, Reeves was at home when the woman broke in.

It was reported that the actor was awakened by the noises coming from the library of his home at around 4 a.m.

When he went to the room to check what it was, the actor saw a woman, who is believed to be in the mid-40s, quietly sitting in a chair, hanging out in his library.

Reeves calmly approached the intruder and asked her what she wanted.

The woman apparently said she was just there to meet him.

That's when the actor, still very calm, called the police, who immediately arrived and took the woman into custody.

Reports said police had also sent her to a medical facility for a mental evaluation.

It was still unknown, why the actor has yet to file a restraining order against her.
