This year has been tough for Jennifer Lopez and her ex-husband Ben Affleck. After enduring a rough patch, Lopez made the decision to file for divorce in August. While the separation appeared to be mutual and friendly, Lopez has faced a wave of unfavorable media attention since then.
Her past romance with Sean “Diddy” Combs has come back into focus, particularly following the mogul’s recent arrest. Additionally, her endorsement speech for Kamala Harris did not receive the expected acclaim. Overall, it seems that Lopez’s public image has suffered significantly in 2024. Nevertheless, there are still positive aspects in Lopez’s life.
Jennifer Lopez stars as Judy Robles in “Unstoppable”
Lopez is set to appear in the upcoming film “Unstoppable”, slated for release in December. In this movie, she portrays Judy Robles, the mother of wrestler Anthony Robles, who triumphed in collegiate wrestling despite being born with only one leg.
During the movie’s promotional events, Lopez participated in a Q&A, where she opened up about navigating difficult relationships while raising children.
I believe many women can relate to that. Judy and I shared a lot of conversations. When talking to her children, including Anthony, they describe her as positive and incredible. However, she was managing a different narrative, which she kept hidden to shield her kids from the reality.
The film has contributions from Affleck as a producer, and he recently praised Lopez’s performance, calling it “spectacular”.
