Your Lucky Day on Showmax
9 January 2025

Your Lucky Day (2023)

In one of his final projects before his death in 2023, Angus Cloud (Euphoria) leads the cast of Your Lucky Day, a high-stakes action thriller about a lottery gone wrong.

A dispute over a winning lottery ticket turns into a deadly hostage situation, forcing the witnesses to decide exactly how far they’ll go – and how much blood they’re willing to spill – for a cut of the $156 million.

Jessica Garza (The Purge, Penny Dreadful: City of Angels) was nominated for a 2024 Imagen Award for Best Supporting Actress, while Your Lucky Day also received a Casting Society of America nomination. 

Your Lucky Day holds an 87% critics’ rating on Rotten Tomatoes, with Roger Ebert hailing it as “thrilling and suspenseful, with enough twists to keep you guessing.”
