Reeves previously recounted suffering an injury on the set ofGood Fortune, tellingThe Late Showhost Stephen Colbert that hisknee "cracked like a potato chip" filmingwith Ansari, 42, and Rogen, 43, in a cold plunge. "I was loving it, I was standing there, and we finish the scene, and you know when you're cold and you're [shuffling]? I had a bathing suit and a towel, and you put it over your head and you do the cold shuffle?" he recalled in July 2024. Lionsgate The PEOPLE Appis now available in the Apple App Store!

Reeves added, "I'm doing the cold shuffle in this room that had protective carpets down and then, just here, there was like a little pocket, and my foot got caught in the pocket in the shuffle, and then I went [down], but [my knee] didn't follow. And then, in slow motion, I went falling. My arms came out, but then my knee failed because it's got some stuff, and I spiked it. And my patella — kneecap — cracked like a potato chip." Lionsgate Ansari toldEntertainment Weeklythat he hopesGood Fortunemarks a return for R-rated comedies to be enjoyed in theaters. "I feel like people are like, 'Oh, no one goes to comedies and theaters anymore.' It's like, well, they haven't really been making a lot of them, you know what I mean?" he said. "So I hope this movie shows that people do want to see comedies at theaters and that it just leads to people making s---ty ripoffs ofGood Fortune." Lionsgate Reeves toldEWof working with theParks and Recreationalum, "Aziz is great. A great writer, director, actor. I had such a fantastic experience working with him."
