Down to Earth

Lance Barton, a struggling comedian, is no stranger to the sting of failure, especially when it comes to dying on stage—figuratively speaking. His life takes an extraordinary and unexpected twist when he suddenly finds himself in heaven, convinced that his time has come far too soon. However, he quickly realizes that something has gone terribly wrong. An angel explains that Lance’s death was a mistake, and offers him a chance to return to Earth, but not in his own body—instead, he must inhabit the aged body of a ruthless white billionaire.

This improbable reincarnation thrusts Lance into a bewildering new reality where he must navigate the complexities of high society and immense wealth, all while holding onto his true identity as a struggling comic. As he embarks on this hilarious and unpredictable journey, Lance strives to chase his showbiz dreams in a way he never imagined possible, finding humor and heart amidst the chaos. The transformative experience challenges him to rethink his perceptions of success, identity, and what truly matters in life.

Delivered with a first-rate performance by Chris Rock, this romantic comedy is a fresh remake of the classic film HEAVEN CAN WAIT. Through laughter and unexpected twists, "Down to Earth" explores themes of second chances, self-discovery, and the power of embracing who you are, even when life takes a completely unexpected turn.
