10 More Upcoming Movies That Just Made PERFECT Casting Choices

10. Keanu Reeves - Good Fortune

Keanu Reeves' career has enjoyed one hell of a resurgence thanks to the John Wick franchise, but considering that Reeves is one of the world's best-liked actors with a squeaky-clean reputation to boot, his next part might be his most fitting yet.

In Aziz Ansari's directorial debut Good Fortune, Reeves will play a literal angel called Gabriel - a "budget guardian angel," to be precise - whose attempt to show protagonist Arj (Aziz Ansari) that his life wouldn't be improved by material wealth backfires spectacularly.

As a result, Gabriel is stripped of his wings and effectively exiled on Earth to live among humanity, as he tries to make sense of everything that's happened to him.

Given that Reeves is kind of a golden retriever in human form, this feels like a pitch-perfect fit for his sensibilities. 

The audience's innate fondness for Keanu should make it incredibly easy to cheer on the wholesome Gabriel and see him hopefully regain his wings by film's end.
