Jennifer Lawrence ‘died laughing’ over ad that inspired ‘No Hard Feelings’

Los Angeles, May 13 : Hollywood star Jennifer Lawrence recently shared that she "died laughing" when reading the real-life Craigslist ad that inspired her upcoming raunchy R-rated comedy No Hard Feelings.

Directed by Lawrences longtime friend Gene Stupnitsky, the film casts the Oscar-winning actor as a Montauk Uber driver facing bankruptcy who accepts a Craigslist ad to date and seduce an awkward 19-year-old (Andrew Barth Feldman), reports Variety.

His helicopter parents dont want him leaving for college as a virgin.Stupnitsky and Lawrence first let it slip at CinemaCon last month that No Hard Feelings was based on a real-life Craigslist ad.The director told Entertainment Weekly that it was the films producers, Marc Provissiero and Naomi Odenkirk, who sent him the Craigslist ad."I read it, and I thought, This is wild.Who is the woman that answers this ad?" Stupnitsky said, quoted by Variety."And I thought, Oh, thatll be a great role for my friend Jennifer Lawrence.

""Gene read the Craigslist ad to me, and I died laughing," Lawrence added."I thought it was hilarious, but there wasnt a script or anything.

I just thought he had a funny idea.And then a couple years later, he handed me the funniest script Ive ever read in my life.""A theatrical release these days is, uh.Its a test," Lawrence also said in the EW interview."You get tested publicly, and everyone knows if you pass through.

But I feel were putting our best foot forward."aa/kvd #Jennifer #Lawrence #inspired #Hard #Los Angeles #Uber #Hollywood.
