It seems like every single day now we're encountering a terrifying new headline about a sinister new development in AI technology, so the new trailer for Gore Verbinski's sci-fi thriller Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die feels extra timely.
Starring Sam Rockwell (Moon, Jojo Rabbit), Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die follows a man claiming to be from the future takes the patrons of an iconic Los Angeles diner hostage in search of unlikely recruits in a quest to save the world.
Also starring are Haley Lu Richardson (Split), Michael Peña (American Hustle), Zazie Beetz (Joker, the upcoming They Will Kill You), Asim Chaudhry (People Just Do Nothing), and Juno Temple (Roofman).
Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die marks Verbinski's first feature since 2016’s A Cure for Wellness, the 2016 psychological horror that starred Dane Dehaan and Mia Goth as patients at a mysterious rehab center in the mountains. His other most famous horror title is, of course, The Ring, the 2002 American remake of Hideo Nakata's J-horror classic Ring from 1998.
The genre-bending pic is produced by Verbinski, Robert Kulzer, Erwin Stoff, Oly Obst, and Denise Chamian, with a score by Geoff Zanelli, his first full project with Verbinski after providing additional music for The Lone Ranger and the Piratesfranchise. After its premiere at this year’s Fantastic Fest, the film currently has a 94% on Rotten Tomatoes — a good sign for Verbinski’s return to directing.
Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die hits theaters on February 13 via Briarcliffe Entertainment. Check out the new trailer down below, and for more, here's a whole bunch of other 2026 horrors we're excited about.
