According to the Independent, it turns out that this isn’t the first time that the actor has crashed a wedding.

Back in 2018, he photobombed a couple who had just got married in New York City.

The snap was shared by the groom’s kilt maker, who wrote: ‘Best #Wedding Picture EVER! Moray & Maura recently got hitched in New York and were #photobombed by a rather scruffy chap passing by. We think Moray looks way better than #KeanuReeves in his stylish @slanjkilts’

The Matrix Resurrections action star Keanu has officially signed on to star in his first major TV series Devil in the White City seven months after being ‘in talks’ on the project.

The evergreen 57-year-old is scheduled to begin filming his role as real-life Chicago architect Daniel Burnham in Hulu’s 2024 limited series next year.

Burnham designed several famous buildings – including the Flatiron Building in Manhattan, Union Station in Washington, DC; Selfridges in London, and Chicago World’s Fair in 1893.

It’s at the Chicago World’s Fair where Burnham crosses paths with serial killer H. H. Holmes as depicted in Erik Larson’s 2004 non-fiction book The Devil in the White City. 

Kind gesture: It turns out that this isn't the first time that the actor has crashed a wedding. Back in 2018, he photobombed a couple who had just got married in New York City

It has not yet been announced who will portray Holmes, who was building his infamous ‘Murder Castle’ at the same time of the Chicago World’s Fair aka World’s Columbian Exposition.

Oscar winner Leonardo DiCaprio – who optioned the book in 2010 – will executive produce The Devil in the White City alongside his frequent director, Oscar winner Martin Scorsese.

Three-time Oscar nominee Todd Field (Little Children, In the Bedroom) will direct the series overseen by showrunner Sam Shaw (Castle Rock, Manhattan).
