Jennifer Lopez was recently spotted celebrating the success of her new Netflix film, “Atlas,” which has quickly climbed to the top of the platform’s charts. The 54-year-old star marked the occasion by snapping selfies in front of a massive billboard for the movie on Sunset Boulevard in Los Angeles.
While driving down the iconic street, Lopez stopped her car to capture the moment, sharing her excitement on Instagram. Her post featured the bold “Don’t F with JLo” ad, which Netflix had displayed ahead of the movie’s release. This celebration came amidst rumors of marital troubles with her husband, Ben Affleck, 51.
Lopez looked casual yet stylish in an oversized, long-sleeved crop top paired with matching white sweatpants and sneakers. Her light brunette hair, highlighted with blonde streaks, flowed in soft waves as she cheerfully took photos in the middle of the street. Despite the film receiving mixed reviews from critics and a negative score on Rotten Tomatoes for its “formulaic” script, Lopez appeared in high spirits, flashing a bright smile.
Thanking her fans and her 252 million Instagram followers, Lopez expressed her gratitude for their support as “Atlas” topped Netflix’s list. “Gracias for making Atlas number 1 worldwide on @Netflix I LOVE YOU ALL SO MUCH,” she wrote alongside photos from the movie’s premiere in Mexico City.
For the premiere, Lopez dazzled in a plunging white ruffled dress from Chloé’s Fall/Winter 2024 RTW collection, valued at $24,790. Notably absent was Affleck, who is currently filming “The Accountant 2” in Los Angeles.
Lopez shared a video of her journey to the billboard, expressing her excitement upon seeing it. “Oh, there it is!” she exclaimed as she jumped out of her car to take photos. She also visited another “Atlas” ad depicting a crashed aircraft, adding to the celebratory mood.
Amid the ongoing rumors about her marriage, Lopez’s “Atlas” co-star Sterling K. Brown insisted that she and Affleck were “very much in love” during the film’s production. He recalled moments when Affleck would help Lopez practice her dialogue, emphasizing their supportive relationship.
However, recent reports suggest the couple has been living separately, with Affleck staying at a $100,000-a-month rental property in Brentwood. He was seen without his wedding band earlier in the month, though it has since reappeared on his left hand.
“Atlas” features Lopez as a brilliant analyst named Atlas Shepherd, who tracks down a rogue robot on a distant planet. The film also stars Brown, Simu Liu, and Mark Strong. During a press conference in Mexico City, Lopez faced questions about her marriage, with Liu stepping in to defend her.
Despite the personal challenges and public scrutiny, Lopez remains focused on her work and her fans, celebrating the success of “Atlas” with her characteristic charm and resilience.
