Jennifer Lopez claimed working with Jason Statham in 2013’s “Parker” was restorative.

When she signed “Parker,” Jennifer Lopez was distressed for personal reasons. She needed the role to overcome her issues.

“I had just decided to get divorced when I did the movie,” she remarked. “I felt low. I had the worst time too. This character was at her worst. I could use that. Thank goodness I used that. Therapeutic.

“I know how that feels. Daily waking up and going to work is a job. I’m not into Ambien, liquor, or medications. You cannot impose that on others at work. You must act professionally.”

Jason Statham previously discussed working with Jennifer Lopez. The actor claimed they had fun because his co-star was pleasant and they had amazing chemistry.

After appearing in action films ‘Shotgun Wedding‘ and ‘The Mother‘, the actress signed the Taylor Hackford-directed film because it seemed “optimistic”.

“I needed to know it gets better at that moment. You must persevere. It improves. When [Hackford] called, I hadn’t considered divorce. My world broke apart, and then this character got therapy.

Every event has a purpose. Indeed. The actress acknowledged it’s true.

In the live-action adaptation of Donald Westlake’s novel ‘Flashfyre,’ Jason Statham played burglar Parker, who is left to die after his gang betrays him.

To steal the crew’s next robbery score, he teams up with insider Leslie Rodgers (Jennifer Lopez).
