Good Fortune, directed by and starring Aziz Ansari, has officially been slated for release on October 17, 2025. The cast also features Keanu Reeves, Seth Rogen, Keke Palmer, Sandra Oh, and many others.
The action comedy follows bumbling angel Gabriel (Keanu Reeves) as he swaps the lives of a struggling employee (Aziz Ansari) and his wealthy boss (Seth Rogen). As a result, Gabriel loses his wings and must deal with the fallout of his actions.
This is Ansari’s directorial debut in the film space, but he is by no means a rookie. He previously directed multiple episodes of the 2015 Netflix sitcom Master of None. He also starred in the series. Aside from that, Ansari has acted in many other comedy roles including in Park and Recreation and Bob’s Burgers. While his skills as a film director are still up in the air, with comedy legend Seth Rogen and loveable movie star Keanu Reeves being attached, there should not be much to worry about.
As for the stars’ other upcoming projects, Seth Rogen is set to return as Pumbaa in Mufasa: The Lion King later this December, and Keanu Reeves has a few movies down the line. He will be voicing the fan-favorite Shadow the Hedgehog in Sonic the Hedgehog 3 this December, and he is set to return as John Wick in the spinoff film Ballerina starring Ana De Armas. It is unclear how large of a role he will play in that film. Further down the road, Reeves is set to reprise his role as DC’s top exorcist John Constantine in Constantine 2, 20 years after the release of the original film.
