Trailer for Jennifer Lopez's New Thriller THE BOY NEXT DOOR
Universal Pictures has released the first trailer for Jennifer Lopez's new psychological thriller The Boy Next Door. The movie was directed by Rob Cohen (The Fast and the Furious), and the story explores a forbidden attraction between a teenage boy and an older woman that goes way too far.
We've seen this same story recycled over and over again in Hollywood over the years. It must be a formula that works for audiences. Since you've already seen this movie before, I'm sure you can figure out the entire plot of the film and how it's going to play out before you even see it.
Lopez plays a mother and teacher who recently separated from her husband. She sparks an inappropriate relationship with the teenage neighbor boy that goes to the school she teaches at. He's also a friend of her own son. When she tries to end the relationship, the kids starts to cause some major issues in her life. The boy is played by Ryan Guzman, and he's one of those actors that doesn't look like he belongs in high school at all.
The film also stars John Corbett and Kristin Chenoweth. It's set to be released on January 23rd.
