It's unknown if it's a prop for filming or not, but the 'Matrix' actor seems to be putting a lot of effort walking around with the crutches on the set of his new film 'Good Fortune'.

AceShowbiz - Keanu Reeves appears to need a little assistance nowadays. The actor has been spotted walking on crutches on the set of his upcoming film "Good Fortune". During a break between takes, he was seen hobbling on the crutches with an ice pack bandaged around his knee.
Photos circulating online showed the 59-year-old on the set in Los Angeles on Thursday, January 25. It's unclear if he is nursing a personal injury or if it is part of his role, but the "Speed" star appeared to be putting in plenty of effort getting around on the crutches before he was faced with a literal bump in the road.
The Canadian hunk had to get through a cable protector, but he managed to overcome the minor obstacle by carefully lifting his bandaged foot up to get around it. His co-star Seth Rogen was pictured around Keanu at the time, but he was seemingly too immersed in what he saw on his phone to notice Keanu or offer him an assistance.
Keanu appeared to be dressed in character with his taupe trench coat, smart white shirt, a pair of gray pants and a green tie. He kept his feet warm in beige boots while rocking his now-signature long hair and beard.
Seth, meanwhile, dressed more comfortably in a white T-shirt, red flannel shirt and khaki pants teamed with a pair of white sneakers. He put on a pair of glasses while talking a breather from the cameras.
"Good Fortune" is directed by Aziz Ansari, who also stars in it alongside Keanu, Seth and Keke Palmer. The comedy film was announced in April 2023. "We have indeed found good fortune with this film," Lionsgate Motion Picture Group Chair Joe Drake said in a statement at the time.
"We love the script and believe strongly in Aziz as both a performer and a director. And when you add in Seth and Keanu - two incredible world-class talents - toplining alongside Aziz, this has the potential to be a very special film for us," Joe continued. "We moved quickly to land this project once it was available."
Filming had been underway when the writers' strike began in May, putting it on hold. Filming resumed earlier this month, while the plot remains under wraps.
