Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die — and watch the new trailer for Gore Verbinski’s first film in over a decade. Sam Rockwell stars as a mysterious man with a vital mission for a ragtag collection of late-night diner patrons. The science fiction comedy will debut in theaters on February 13, 2026. The trailer opens at an all-night eatery in Los Angeles. Even the most jaded diners have to turn their heads and look when a mysterious man (Rockwell), seemingly clad in a fashionable ensemble of garbage, walks in.
He’s from a future that is “totally, completely f***ed” thanks to an evil artificial intelligence, and there’s only one way to avert this nightmare apocalypse: recruiting strangers to help him stop it before it can go online
Interestingly, your reasons for not getting drawn into the trailer are the same that did draw me in. Only the barest hint at a narrative premise has me intrigued, plus it looks ludicrous in a “12 Monkeys meets Wes Andersen” kind of way. It’s immediately up top of my Want-to-watch list.
