Alex Rodriguez’s $400 Million Ex Jennifer Lopez Will Be Playing a ‘Killer’ Mother on Her Jaw Dropping Action Comeback

Pop sensation Jennifer Lopez, worth $400 million, is back in action, and quite literally too. The megastar, who was engaged to former Yankees superstar Alex Rodriguez, is now making a comeback as an action hero, and dawning a whole new avatar as a “murderous mother.”

‘The Mother’ will reach Netflix on May 12. Mother of two twins Emme and Max, Jennifer Lopez, plays the role of a hitman in the film and is forced to come out of hiding to protect her daughter. Since 2002, this is Jennifer Lopez’s first feature in an action movie, and director Niki Caro didn’t think there was anyone else who could fit this role better.

The trailer of the movie released a few hours ago, starring an ageless, 53-year-old Jennifer Lopez.

In the trailer, JLo says, “I’m a killer. But I’m also a mother. And I will die protecting her.”

56-year-old Niki Caro spoke to PEOPLE about JLo being the perfect fit for this role. She also expressed her surprise at learning that Lopez hadn’t been doing action movies all her life. Caro said, “Jennifer brings her legendary skill and precision to the action elements, but also brings her strength as a dramatic actor and her experience as a mother right to the heart of the movie. I knew Jennifer was the only actress for the role.”

The musician and actor is clearly enjoying her professional by donning roles as a lead star, but what is her current relationship status?

What is JLo’s present relationship status?

In April 2021, after being together for four years, Alex Rodriguez and Jennifer Lopez announced the end of their engagement. By then, A-Rod was not only an ex-Yankee superstar but also a distinguished businessman, with his most popular investment being in the Minnesota Timberwolves, where he’s a part owner.

Shortly after their breakup, JLo got back together with her ex-fiance from the early 2000s, Ben Affleck. Since then, the pair married in August 2022, and have been living a happy married life.
