What is Jennifer Lawrence’s next movie?
Jennifer Lawrence made her return earlier this year with Netflix film No Hard Feelings, and has a host of new projects upcoming.
Directed by Gene Stupnitsky (Jury Duty), the raunchy comedy follows 32-year-old Uber driver Maddie (Lawrence) who answers an advert to date a shy 19-year-old called Percy (Andrew Barth Feldman) in order to boost his confidence before college.
Upon its release, the age gap between Lawrence and Feldman’s characters was criticised by some, but the movie went on to top the Netflix film charts for 2023.
A synopsis for the film reads: “On the brink of losing her childhood home, Maddie discovers an intriguing job listing: wealthy helicopter parents looking for someone to ‘date’ their introverted 19-year-old son, Percy, before he leaves for college.
“To her surprise, Maddie soon discovers the awkward Percy is no sure thing.”
Following the release of the film, we’ve compiled every future project Lawrence is attached to, and what is coming next for the actor.
