And Liev Schreiber made the most of some rare time off as he soaked up the sights of Venice with girlfriend Taylor Neisen and pet pooch, Scout on Saturday.

He topped off his outfit with a maroon baseball cap and took safety precautions amid the COVID-19 pandemic by wearing a blue face mask, 

Taylor showed off her fashion forward style wearing wide-legged navy tracksuit bottoms with a red and green stripe down the side.

She paired the statement trousers with a camel sweater and a brown tweed jacket and let her blonde hair fall loose around her face. 

Liev was pictured having a cuddle with his adorable rescue dog, that he adopted last July, as he took a brief rest on a step while he recovers from recent surgeries on his knee.

It comes after Liev reportedly had to undergo further surgery on his leg after injuring himself in a fight scene during filming.

The actor was pictured hobbling on crutches earlier this month as he headed to the doctors in Veneto, where he is said to have undergone keyhole surgery before returning to Venice in the evening.

Back in January, the actor told a fan on Twitter he had just had knee surgery and he is said to have aggravated the injury further after filming a fight scene.

The actor plays US Army Col. Cantwell in the film set in post WW2 Venice, Across The River And Into The Trees, which is based on the last full-length novel by Ernest Hemingway. 

Liev has been shooting scenes with his onscreen love interest Maltida De Angelis, who plays an 18-year-old Italian contessa called Renata, over the past few weeks.

The thespian and his real life girlfriend, Taylor, have been going strong ever since they started dating in 2017, following his divorce from Naomi Watts.

He was married to the actress, 52, for 11 years and the couple share two children Sasha, 13, and Kai, 11.
