The comedic fantasy, which Aziz Ansari wrote, directed, produced and stars in, features Keanu Reeves as a \u201cbudget guardian angel\u201d who swaps the places of a wealthy man (Seth Rogen) and a struggling gig worker (Ansari). And if you want a new taste of the movie, watch the trailer below.<\/p>\n<p>\t\tPlay video<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t<img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/1758585129_605_hqdefault.jpg\" alt=\"Play\"\/><\/p>\n<p>The film also stars Keke Palmer, Sandra Oh and Stephen McKinley Henderson.<\/p>\n<p>Set to the tune of Sylvester and Patrick Cowley\u2019s disco classic \u201cDo You Wanna Funk?\u201d and featuring some truly incredible one-lines from Rogen, Ansari and, in particular, Reeves, this new trailer makes the movie look like a total blast.<\/p>\n<p>When the film premiered at TIFF, it was warmly reviewed and is currently sitting at an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rottentomatoes.com\/m\/good_fortune\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">83 on Rotten Tomatoes<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.metacritic.com\/movie\/good-fortune-2025\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">69 on Metacritic<\/a>. Our own review of \u201cGood Fortune\u201d said that it was \u201csparkling with fantastically funny performances that make a 90-minute comedy worth it in the end\u201d (it\u2019s quoted in the above trailer).<\/p>\n<p>In the past few years comedies have largely been relegated to streaming services, but with the success of projects like the R-rated Glen Powell\/Sydney Sweeney romantic comedy \u201cAnyone But You\u201d (which made more than $220 million worldwide) and recent \u201cNaked Gun\u201d reboot for Paramount (which $100 million globally after opening last month), it seems like the theatrical comedy could very well be back.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGood Fortune\u201d will hit theaters on October 17.<\/p>\n<p>\t\t<a class=\"the-wrap-read-more__image\" href=\"https:\/\/www.thewrap.com\/the-studio-renewed-season-2-seth-rogen-apple-tv\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/the-studio-3.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"The Studio\"   data-portal-copyright=\"TheWrap\" data-has-syndication-rights=\"1\"\/>\t\t\t\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"It\u2019s time to get ready for \u201cGood Fortune.\u201d Earlier this month, \u201cGood Fortune\u201d premiered at the Toronto International&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":175003,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[52],"tags":[26771,88,26773,10490,206,12649],"class_list":{"0":"post-175002","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-movies","8":"tag-aziz-ansari","9":"tag-entertainment","10":"tag-good-fortune","11":"tag-keanu-reeves","12":"tag-movies","13":"tag-seth-rogen"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/175002","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=175002"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/175002\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/175003"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=175002"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=175002"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=175002"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
