Keanu Reeves, a beloved actor known for his kindness and action-packed roles, recently shared a concerning incident on “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.”
Unexpected Accident
While filming his new comedy, “Good Fortune,” Reeves recounted, “I broke my kneecap.” Known for his roles in “The Matrix” and “John Wick,” the injury was surprisingly mundane. Colbert asked, “What happened? Who got to you?” Reeves playfully replied, “No one got to me. Accident got to me.”
The Incident
Reeves explained that the injury occurred after a scene with Aziz Ansari and Seth Rogen. “We were in a cold plunge. I was doing the ‘cold shuffle’ in a room with protective carpets, and my foot got caught in a pocket,” he said. Demonstrating, Reeves added, “My patella, kneecap, cracked like a potato chip.”
Reflecting on Comedy
Colbert clarified, “This was not an action film with Aziz and Rogen.” Reeves confirmed, “No, it was comedy.” Adding humor, he remarked, “Comedy is hard, man,” to which Colbert responded, “Welcome to my life.”
