Jennifer Lawrence starring in new R-rated comedy movie seducing ‘un-f**kable’ 19-year-old

Prepare for a whole load of f-bombs

Ali Condon

Jennifer Lawrence is set to star in new R-rated comedy No Hard Feelings, where she’ll play a woman trying to seduce an ‘unf**kable’ 19-year-old.

By the looks of this trailer it’s going to be an absolute riot:

J-Law will play Maddie, a young woman who finds herself without a car after a messy split with her boyfriend.

Strapped for cash and a car, and on the brink of losing her childhood home, she answers a couple’s bizarre Craigslist ad asking for someone to ‘date’ their introverted 19-year-old son Percy to get him out of his shell before he leaves for college.

And yes, the word ‘date’ is in quotation marks on purpose… if you catch my drift.

It seems like an easy gig, and in return, Percy’s helicopter parents will give Maddie a car, but seducing this awkward kid will be a serious challenge.

Despite her best and sexiest efforts, Percy just will not take the hint that Maddie wants to ‘date’ him.

At one point, she defeatedly tells her friends that Percy is just plain ‘unf**kable’.

By the looks of that trailer, Maddie won’t come out of this one unscathed, either.

In one hilarious scene, she tries to take him home, but winds up getting pepper-sprayed when Percy thinks she’s kidnapping him.

In another, Maddie gets a fist to the throat, when Percy tries to defend her honor, but miscalculates the punch, slamming it into Maddie’s windpipe.

As well as Lawrence, the film will star Andrew Barth Feldman as Percy and Matthew Broderick and Laura Benanti as his parents, as well as Natalie Morales (Dead To Me), Hasan Minhaj, Kyle Mooney (Saturday Night Live), Ebon Moss-Bachrach (The Bear), Scott MacArthur, to name a few.

Gene Stupnitsky and John Phillips are the minds behind the script, with Stupnitsky also in the director’s chair.

It’s been a while since we’ve seen Lawrence in a comedy film – the last perhaps being 2021’s Don’t Look Up – and by the sounds of things, she definitely hasn’t lost her touch.

Her co-star Ebon Moss-Bachrach recently told Awards Radar: “I think Jennifer Lawrence is really goofy in this movie, in a way that she hasn’t been in the past.

“The movie reminds me of some ‘90s comedies I really used to like. I don’t want to misrepresent the movie, but there were elements which reminded me of the Farrelly brothers, or Something About Mary.

“There’s a decent amount of physical comedy, and Jennifer Lawrence is very committed to it. It was a very funny set.”
