The trailer for the upcoming comedy film Good Fortune has officially dropped, and it’s already generating excitement among fans of clever humor and feel-good storytelling. Directed and written by Aziz Ansari in his feature film debut, Good Fortune trailer features an A-list ensemble and a wildly entertaining premise.
The film follows Gabriel, an angel played by Keanu Reeves, who’s on a mission to teach Arj (Aziz Ansari) an important life lesson—that wealth isn’t the answer to all of life’s problems. To do this, he swaps Arj’s life with his rich, clueless boss Jeff (Seth Rogen).

But the plan goes hilariously off the rails, causing Gabriel to lose his wings and sending their lives into utter chaos. As Gabriel scrambles to fix the damage, he’s forced to confront the unpredictability of human nature and divine intention.
The Good Fortune trailer offers a sneak peek into the madcap energy of the film, blending slapstick comedy, witty dialogue, and emotional depth. Viewers get a taste of both hilarious body-swap confusion and unexpected moments of vulnerability. Aziz Ansari steps confidently into the director’s chair, showing his trademark blend of humor and insight.
Good Fortune is produced by Garam Films, Oh Brudder Productions, Keep Your Head, and Yang Pictures. The film is expected to hit theaters later in 2025, though the exact release date has not yet been confirmed. Given the trailer’s strong reception, the film is already one of the most talked-about comedies of the year.
