Good Fortune Trailer: Keanu Reeves is a Guardian Angel in Aziz Ansari’s New Comedy

The first Good Fortune trailer is here, and it’s a quirky celestial comedy packed with big names. Directed by and starring Aziz Ansari, the Lionsgate film makes its world premiere this September at the 2025 Toronto International Film Festival before hitting theaters on October 17.
Watch The Good Fortune Trailer
In the film, Ansari plays Arj, a down-on-his-luck gig worker who’s thrown for a loop when an angel—played hilariously by Keanu Reeves—decides to teach him a life lesson. Reeves’ character, the well-meaning but incompetent Gabriel, swaps Arj’s existence with that of a wealthy venture capitalist, played by Seth Rogen. The result? A comedic crash course in privilege, perspective, and personal growth. Watch the trailer below.
What to Expect from the Good Fortune
The Good Fortune trailer teases a heartfelt and humorous story grounded in modern economic anxieties and spiritual mishaps. With Keke Palmer as Elena, Sandra Oh as Martha, and a supporting cast that rounds out the emotional beats and comedic highs, the film looks poised to deliver laughs with a touch of existential reflection.
Backed by a strong creative team—including cinematographer Adam Newport-Berra and composer Carter Burwell—the film is produced by Lionsgate alongside Media Capital Technologies and Garam Films. It’s the kind of feel-good chaos only Ansari could orchestrate, blending philosophical whimsy with cultural bite.
