This is her sexiest look since Silver Linings Playbook, a truly femme fatale.

Not sure why I even bother with early test screening reactions since I know they aren't worth much, but there were a couple of test screenings yesterday and the two responses I've seen are an ambiguous shrug gif and this:

 

 

Unfortunately still carries the idea that this is 'Black Widow', but at least he seems to think it was a good Black Widow....

 

There were at least two test screenings.  I'm wondering how tight that non disclosure agreement was, that this is all that is out there.

Jennifer is already a better Black Widow than ScarJo  I hear Taika Waititi wants to do a Black Widow film....Lord have mercy. 

[Valonqar]

It's a dick move to hype people about reporting from the test screening only to post a shrug or whatever gif. I'm talking about that attention seeker from AW. 

[AndyK]

There is no doubt she looks amazing in this.

 

I was doubtful, she could carry this off, but its looking good so far.

Saw a screening of Red Sparrow last night. The movie is dope as fuck. Great story, lots of nudity, humor, gore, violence and a big twist at the end! Jennifer Lawrence's best film to date in my opinion.

Jen did a podcast for The Hollywood Reporter and in it she mentioned why she did Red Sparrow, which is so much  more sexual than other things she had been willing to do:

 

Quote

As high as Lawrence's highs were, her lows were just as low — and none more so than the nightmare that began on Aug. 31, 2014, when a massive breach of Apple's iCloud service allowed hackers to steal and publicly post nude images of hundreds of celebrities, including Lawrence. "When the hacking thing happened, it was so unbelievably violating that you can't even put it into words," she says. "I think that I'm still actually processing it. When I first found out it was happening, my security reached out to me. It was happening minute-to-minute — it was almost like a ransom situation where they were releasing new ones every hour or so. And, I don't know, I feel like I got gang-banged by the fucking planet — like, there's not one person in the world that is not capable of seeing these intimate photos of me. You can just be at a barbecue and somebody can just pull them up on their phone. That was a really impossible thing to process." Making matters worse, there was virtually no recourse for her or the other victims. "A lot of women were affected, and a lot of them reached out to me about suing Apple or suing [others] — and none of that was gonna really bring me peace, none of that was gonna bring my nude body back to me and Nic [Lawrence's former boyfriend Nicholas Hoult], the person that they were intended for. It wasn't gonna bring any of that back. So I wasn't interested in suing everybody; I was just interested in healing." She adds, "I think, like, a year and a half ago, somebody said something to me about how I was 'a good role model for girls,' and I had to go into the bathroom and sob because I felt like an imposter — I felt like, 'I can't believe somebody still feels that way after what happened.' It's so many different things to process when you've been violated like that."

 

Lawrence says that Red Sparrow, a recently wrapped thriller that reunites her with Francis Lawrence, who directed three of the four Hunger Games films, was sort of a response to the hacking trauma. "[The film] was really sexual, which has always scared me. I've always been like, 'Absolutely no way' — especially after what happened [with the nude hack] — 'no way am I ever gonna do anything sexual.' So, for me, doing Red Sparrow — I felt like I was getting something back that had been taken from me."

There's a lot more in there, but that is all of it that is about Red Sparrow.

It's a pretty great interview on that podcast as they manage to cover nearly every step of her career.

Her body is meant for nudity. Not sure why she was trying to do anything other than that. Career best performance I see. Well well well....Basic Instinct 3 needs to be made.

I'm not trying to be obtuse but I don't get what your point is here?

There are rumors there is a new trailer out soon, and the Daily Mail has pictures.... I don't know if these are from the trailer, but why would they be first with them?

These are production stills so not from the trailer. But definitely an indicator of a trailer being imminent.

 

as for 'why would they be first with them' - cause they do get some exclusives from the studios like EW etc too. Shitty choice of outlet for Fox UK I know, but at least the guy who wrote the article (Baz) he's the  guy when it comes to Bond scoops and the saving grace of that pile of trash that is the Daily Mail.
