Jennifer Lopez’s New Netflix Movie Is Getting Roasted For Looking AI-Made And Miscasting J-Lo

Jennifer Lopez’s difficult start to 2024 hasn’t gotten any better this week as the release of the first trailer for her new Netflix sci-fi movie Atlas has been widely panned by movie fans on social media.

Directed by Brad Peyton, the filmmaker behind middling The Rock vehicles such as San Andreas and Rampage, Atlas features Lopez as Atlas Shepherd, “a brilliant but misanthropic data analyst with a deep distrust of artificial intelligence,” according to Netflix.

Lopez’s Atlas then “joins a mission to capture a renegade robot with whom she shares a mysterious past” and finds that “her only hope of saving the future of humanity from AI is to trust it.”

Immediately after the trailer’s release, it was widely mocked for a multitude of reasons, including that it has the feel of an AI-generated movie.

“This might genuinely be the first AI-generated movie ever released,” one person

“There’s no possible reason Netflix could want to teach an emerging audience to accept AI at the controls. None at all! It’s probably just a normal movie doing normal things!” another person sarcastically

One of the

to DiscussingFilm‘s post of the trailer says that the movie looks good “except for the J-Lo part” because she’s miscast.

Another common complaint seems to be that Atlas appears to be a ripoff of the popular Titanfall video game series.

“We have Titanfall 2 at home,” joked one

“They keep finding new and innovative ways to kill Titanfall,” said

Alongside Lopez, Simu Liu, Sterling K. Brown, and Mark Strong star in the film, which will be hitting Netflix on May 24.

Atlas is Lopez’s latest project with Netflix, having previously starred in the thriller The Mother in 2023 and the documentary Jennifer Lopez: Halftime (about her Super Bowl halftime show with Shakira) in 2022.
