Jennifer Lawrence thinks it's hard to make a comedy "where you're not offending people". The 32-year-old actress stars alongside Andrew Barth Feldman, Laura Benanti, and Matthew Broderick in the new coming-of-age rom-com 'No Hard Feelings', and Jennifer has predicted that "everyone" will be offended by the movie in one way or another. The award-winning star told Sky News: "I think it's time for just a good old-fashioned laugh.
And it really is hard to make a comedy where you're not offending people. Everybody in some sense will be offended by this film - you're welcome. " Jennifer plays the part of Maddie, an Uber driver who is facing bankruptcy after her car is repossessed.
The Hollywood star admits that she's been keen to make a comedy movie for a while. She said: "I was definitely always open to a comedy. "I wouldn't say I was like: 'I really want my character to try to have sex with a young person', but I just read it and it was the funniest thing I'd ever read.
