Keanu Reeves looks exhausted on the NY set of John Wick 3 as he wraps up in a bathrobe between takes

To be fair, fighting off assassins for three films in a row would take its toll on anyone.

Even the immortal Keanu Reeves, who was spotted looking exhausted on the set of John Wick 3 on Thursday night.

The 53-year-old was spotted dozing off as he took a break between scenes of the action flick filming in Downtown Manhattan.

Dressed in his now iconic black suit and tie, he wrapped up warm in a navy bathrobe while he waited for cameras to start rolling again.

His long hair was matted and soaked, as were his clothes, as the scene in questioned called for a fake downpour of rain.

As he prepared for another take, he wearily got to his feet and let hair and make-up have their way with him.

While his eyes were open, the Matrix star still looked very much asleep.

No-one will blame the actor either, as he has been pictured night after night performing grueling stunts and filming demanding action sequences for the eagerly awaited sequel.

The hitman trilogy tells the story of a retired assassin, dragged back into the business on a trail of revenge after gangsters kill his puppy and steal his vintage car.

The first film was a surprise hit, almost tripling its $30million budget into $89million at the box office.

The sequel, Chapter 2, was an even bigger success, reaping more than $171million off a $40million budget.

John Wick: Chapter 3 — also titled Parabellum — is set to be released on May 17, 2019.

According to the synopsis, 'John is on the run for two reasons: he's being hunted for a global $14 million dollar open contract on his life, and for breaking a central rule: taking a life on Continental Hotel grounds.'

'John uses the service industry to stay alive as he fights and kills his way out of New York City,' the synopsis continues.

The latest film sees Halle Berry and Anjelica Huston join the cast, while Ian McShane, Laurence Fishburne, Common and Ruby Rose all return.
