HOUSTON – Fans will probably know him as the fast-talking, big-dreaming Tom Haverford from ‘Parks and Rec,’ and the thoughtful romantic from ‘Master of None’ — but now Aziz Ansari is back with ‘Good Fortune,’ a comedy that’s as funny as it is deep.
With Seth Rogen and Keanu Reeves by his side, Aziz takes us on a journey about luck, life, and all the unexpected twists in between — which he not only stars in but also co-wrote and directed.
Here’s short description of the film:
A well-meaning but inept angel named Gabriel (Keanu Reeves) intervenes in the lives of Arj (Aziz Ansari), a struggling gig worker barely scraping by, and Jeff (Seth Rogen), a wealthy venture capitalist. Gabriel attempts to teach Arj that money doesn’t solve everything by swapping Arj’s life with Jeff’s — but when Arj actually seems happier in the rich life, everything starts to unravel.
Tune in to Houston Life at 1 p.m. as Lauren Kelly catches up with Aziz to chat about making the movie, directing comedy legends, and why a little chaos might be exactly what makes life interesting.
