Keanu Reeves Shares Landscaping Past Before Hitting Big Time

Keanu Reeves, the renowned star of the 'John Wick' franchise, recently opened up about his surprising pre-fame job in a new interview. Reeves, who is currently 60 years old, told his 'Good Fortune' co-star Aziz Ansari that "before I got paid, I was landscaping."

Reeves elaborated, explaining that as a young man, he was "pushing a lawnmower, going through trees and getting handed a chainsaw." However, the actor said he actually "liked it" and found the work to be "fun."

In addition to this revelation, Reeves also recounted a hilarious injury he suffered while filming 'Good Fortune' with Ansari and Seth Rogen. Reeves told 'The Late Show' host Stephen Colbert that his knee "cracked like a potato chip" while he was doing a "cold shuffle" on set. The actor said his foot got caught in a pocket in the protective carpeting, causing him to fall and spike his knee.

'Good Fortune,' which also stars Keke Palmer and Sandra Oh, follows "a well-meaning but rather inept angel named Gabriel" who "meddles in the lives of a struggling gig worker (Ansari) and a wealthy venture capitalist (Rogen)." The film is set to be released in the coming months.
