The first trailer for Jennifer Lopez’s (semi-autobiographical?) musical movie has arrived – and we’re not entirely sure what’s happening.
The trailer, however, is an unexpectedly epic yet extremely campy big-budget extravaganza that puts J-Lo on the back of a motorcycle, in a hazmat suit, on a basketball court, and in outer space at one point. The trailer cuts from a dance sequence taking place in the middle of a wedding to her sitting on the couch opposite rapper Fat Joe, who is her therapist.
We then cut to an intervention held by her friends in which they sit her down and tell her they think she might be a sex addict. Suddenly, she’s in group therapy explaining how she couldn’t sleep at night when she was eight years old, and then she’s working (and dancing) in a factory. There’s also what appears to be a basketball court musical number, a homage to Singing in the Rain, then she’s an alien princess of some kind. Yeah.
The cast includes Trevor Noah, Kim Petras, Post Malone, Keke Palmer, Sofia Vergara – and astrophysicist Neil DeGrasse Tyson for some reason.
