Next Guy Ritchie Movie Fountain of Youth Debuts Trailer That Gives Big Indiana Jones and The Mummy Vibes

Filmmaker Guy Ritchie has long been known for his engaging and stylish British crime dramas and gangster films — not to mention his two Sherlock Holmes films starring Robert Downey Jr. — but the writer-director is officially trying something new. The trailer for his upcoming film Fountain of Youth has been released, and gives us a glimpse into a new world for Ritchie, one that is ripe with thrills and adventure in the style of Indiana Jones and The Mummy.

The movie stars John Krasinski and Natalie Portman as estranged siblings Luke and Charlotte who reunite to search for the legendary Fountain of Youth (hence the title, of course). The trailer also shows Eiza González, Stanley Tucci, Domhnall Gleeson, Laz Alonso, and Arian Moayed along for the ride — and it seems that not all of their characters are working with Krasinski and Portman’s.

The trailer makes it clear that there are two opposing sides trying to get their hands on the fountain, and for good reason. "There's a power beyond any of our comprehension," Krasinski’s character says of the relic in the trailer. "One story, five continents, dozens of cultures, and over a thousand years." Sounds like the battle for this thing is going to be pretty intense, but then again, that always makes for some great movie action, which, with Ritchie's rep, we'll have in spades for sure.

Fountain of Youth is set to be released on May 23, 2025 on Apple TV+ — which means this one will most likely not see a theatrical run, a disheartening problem we continue to run into as the streamers ratchet up their dominance in the industry more and more. That said, we’re just as excited to see this one at home as we would be in the theater.
