Hold on to your halos! Keanu Reeves is trading in bullets for blessings in the upcoming comedy Good Fortune, written and directed by Aziz Ansari. But this isn't your typical stoic, brooding angel. Reeves plays Gabriel, a well-intentioned but hilariously incompetent angel who's more likely to prevent texting-while-driving accidents than smite demons.
What's Good Fortune About?
Gabriel, after centuries of small-time miracles, craves a change. His new mission: to teach a struggling, broke human (played by Ansari) that money isn't the key to happiness. Enter Seth Rogen, playing Jeff, a ridiculously wealthy tech bro. Gabriel orchestrates a Freaky Friday-esque body swap, forcing Jeff to experience Arj's (Ansari) cash-strapped reality while Arj navigates Jeff's opulent Silicon Valley life.
The official trailer for Good Fortune, released by Lionsgate, showcases the comedic chaos that ensues. The film, also starring Keke Palmer and Sandra Oh, promises a blend of high-concept comedy and social satire.
When Can You See It?
Good Fortune is set to open in theaters on October 17, 2025. Get ready for divine intervention with a comedic twist!
