Movie Story

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

official CBS synopsis

The Back-up Plan is a comedy that explores courtship, love, marriage and family “in reverse.”

After years of dating, Zoe (Jennifer Lopez) has decided waiting for the right one is taking too long. Determined to become a mother, she commits to a plan, makes an appointment and decides to go it alone. On the day of her artificial insemination, Zoe meets Stan – a man with real possibilities.

Trying to nurture a budding relationship and hide the early signs of pregnancy becomes a comedy of errors for Zoe and creates confusing signals for Stan. When Zoe nervously reveals the reason for her unpredictable behavior, Stan commits fully and says he’s in.

Never before has love seen a courtship where a wild night of sex involves three in a bed – Stan, Zoe and the ever-present massive pregnancy pillow. Or, where “date night” consists of being the “focal point” at a near-stranger’s water birth which does for kiddie pools what “Jaws” did for swimming in the ocean. The real pregnancy test comes when both of them realize they really don’t know each other outside of hormonal chaos and birth preparations. With the nine month clock ticking, both begin to experience cold feet. Anyone can fall in love, get married and have a baby but doing it backwards in hyper-drive could be proof positive that they were made for each other.

Jennifer Lopez stars in The Back-up Plan for CBS Films, the film division within CBS Corporation (NYSE: CBS.A and CBS). The project, which starts principal photography in Los Angeles on May 11, will be the first feature film release for the company and is set to debut in theaters January of 2010.

Alan Poul (‘Swingtown” and “Six Feet Under”) will direct. Todd Black, Jason Blumenthal and Steve Tisch (“The Pursuit of Happyness,” “Knowing”) will produce through their Escape Artists banner. Kate Angelo (“Will and Grace,” “What About Brian”) wrote the screenplay.

Here is an interview of J.Lo for "the Back up Plan". Nothin' about the movie, really, but still JustJared talks about it and that's good for our Danneel !

J.LO about the Back up plan

there is many infos about the movie here http://lovelylopez.net/engl/planb.php

Danneel character is named Olivia, that's the only place where i saw Danneel character name listed, so i asked the websmaster if she knew more she said that accordingt to the sides (part of the scripts they gave to auditions) Danneel plays Olivia one of Alex O'loughlin character's friend, most of her scenes are with O'loughlin and Jennifer Lopez.

:)

I'm so excited, thanks for the news jade and devilounette =D

^^oh and i see that Eric Christian Olsen is also in the cast playing Jlo's best friend according to his Twitter.

Thanks for the info Jade! :D I'm curious about this movie, it sounds like a fun chick flick, which is okay for me.


Eric Christian Olsen... isn't he the guy Paula don't like? Don't tell her... :laugh:

jade thanks for news so great that they begin to appear.. Hope for more maybe even from set that would be so awesome.

Oh Paula won't like that... how did the twinzz call it? The 'ECO' WARNING^^

ARGH, WHYYYY?! He's invading another one of her movies?! :grr:

Joking. Kind of. But not really. haha

Anyway, thanks for the info, jade! And welcome! ^_^

^ lol sorry for the bad news, and thanks for the welcome.

other than Fired-up I only know Eric from "Brothers and sisters" i liked him in that :P

@ Jade: Me too, in Brother's and Sister's he was pretty great =D
Oh and Welcome!!! :wave:


But I think Danneel's role won't be that big in this movie anyway... because it's about JLO's role wanting a kid and a family and finding a nice guy ... and even when she's in most scenes with the both main characters it won't be a lot... but who cares... I'll watch it though ... just for Danneely :wub:

^ thanks and yeah it will probably be 2/3 scenes but that's fine it's probably the biggest movie she has ever been in, in terms of budget and who's staring in it, so it will have a big release and that's great.

Also here's 2 videos from the set Danneel isn't in them but it gives a little idea of what the movie will be even though it's more about Jlo than the movie itself.

there was a pic in a local tabloid about The Backup Plan... Danneel wasn't in it but still...

if it reaches belgium that that's good, right?

so many pictures this week from the set, i was hoping that we'll get some of Danneel, but nothing, almost all the cast was photographed, maybe she'll be part of the NY shoot, they're filming 2 weeks in NY in July i think.

Here is the Movie Poster (well a teaser i guess)... no mention of Danneel unfortunately :(

Hah, wow, that's an... interesting... poster. :P Thanks, Jonathan!

We got a little scrap of info about the movie in this interview teaser...

haha. Perhaps more to follow on Monday with the full interview?

Hello Jonathan!!!! =D


That's a cool poster!

and that sounds like the ultimate plan to me x] LMAO

Funny poster, and lol at her quote, i already can't wait for that movie.

Do you guys know if she's done with the filming because they're filming in NY the next 2 week.

here's a location.

The Back-up Plan Filming in NY

omg! I have to tell my friend from NYC about that!!!
thanks for the info jade!!!

we think the poster is kinda;....simple and minimalistic???

It is... we were just snickering at the little hearts that look like sperm. (Well, I was anyway. lol)

LOFAO now that you mention it..offcourse sperm was the last thing on our minds ^_^

Official site : http://www.theback-upplan.com/

i read on a jlo board that Danneel was on set filming yesterday in Ny a scene with the lead actor.

Cool!
This explains why Danneel is in New York, haha x]
obviously...

thx for the site :)

now that we've seen the little thingies following our every move on the website..we can only conclude that it is indeed sperm LOL

Does anyone know how long Danneel is going to be in New York for? Or is she back in Wilmington now? Because I'm going to New York tomorrow, and I really want to see her. LOL.

No idea how long Danneel will be shooting in NYC, but they're out on location today!

EDIT: And now Danneel just tweeted, "Packing for New York.............Again :-D" lol - So I guess she's not there at the moment, but will be back soon!

lol sounds like she is travelling back and forth the whole time ?°

The filming end this week, so she should be there now.

:laugh: seeing she's probably filming stuff for OTH AND the BUP at the same time, wilmy and NY just got a whole lot closer together we guess

Ok not a picture of Danneel but a promo of Jennifer & Alex ! God that guy is Hot !

:pervy:

Why hello walking abs. I mean Alex O'Loughlin. :wub:

again Danneel isn't in it but here's a preview of the movie !

Right now, IMDB states the Back-Up Plan to be released April 16, 2010. These sorts of things sometimes change. But that's the current info. :)

I wish I was more excited for this movie, but it doesn't really sound like the kind of thing I'm into. I'll maybe check it out on DVD or something.

I'm way more hyped for The Roommate!

Me too Paula - I love horror/thriller/scary movies so I defiently wanna see The Roommate :)

Althought I am curiuos about The Back-Up Plan - it looks like it will be funny and kinda like Monster In Law in a way

the showed "the teaser" last night on ET, Danneel isn't in it but the movie looks pretty good !

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wzmT7Oodn7w

Wow, yeah, so not feeling this movie... :ermm:

And uggghhh, I completely forgot ~ECO~ is in it. lol

Didn't like this movie either, I would love only to see Danneel's parts in it.

:laugh: yeah, this movie..no
we did see a copy of extreme movie at a german dvd store but so didn't wanna pick it up for the sake of 5 danneel minutes
