About two weeks into filming, Keanu Reeves fractured his kneecap after stepping out of a cold plunge, an injury he later described in vivid, wince-inducing terms. Rather than halt the production, Reeves kept working through most of his scenes, with the film's more physical moments and dance sequences rescheduled until he had recovered.
Good Fortune is Aziz Ansari's first film as a director, a project years in the making. Principal photography was originally set for 2023 but was pushed after the industry-wide writers' strike, and only resumed in early 2024 — stretching the timeline of Ansari's long-gestating debut considerably.
Ansari has said he initially doubted whether Keanu Reeves could play a comedic angel, given his action-hero image. He won himself over simply by spending time with Reeves over Indian food, discovering the offbeat warmth that ended up defining Gabriel — a role written to upend everything audiences expect from a Keanu Reeves performance.
Good Fortune is a fantasy comedy that marks the feature directorial debut of Aziz Ansari, who also writes and co-stars. Keanu Reeves plays Gabriel, a well-meaning but low-ranking guardian angel who decides to intervene in the life of Arj (Ansari), a broke gig worker convinced that money would fix everything. To teach him a lesson, Gabriel magically swaps Arj's life with that of a wealthy, carefree venture capitalist (Seth Rogen) — a plan that goes badly, and hilariously, wrong.
When his celestial gambit backfires, Gabriel is stripped of his wings and left stranded on Earth, forcing the mismatched trio to sort out the mess together. The cast, rounded out by Keke Palmer and Sandra Oh, lets Ansari fold his observational comedy about money, class, and modern precarity into a warmhearted supernatural premise. Reeves, playing gloriously against type as a gentle, slightly clueless angel, gives the film its most unexpected comic engine.
Premiering at the Toronto International Film Festival before its October 2025 theatrical release from Lionsgate, Good Fortune earned generally favorable reviews and a 79% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, with critics praising Reeves's comic timing and the film's good-natured social conscience. It streams on Starz.
