Jennifer Lopez must have punched Jane Fonda in the face and there was blood
Played by Jennifer Lopez, she obviously knows the intrigue and at some point there is a sharp confrontation. The scriptwriters wrote a scene in which the ladies slap each other’s faces. Jane Fonda talked about filming this sequence on the couch on The Drew Barrymore Show:
I slap her, she slap me. So Jennifer, being Jennifer, was wearing this giant diamond ring. So after one more hit, this ring cut my eye and eyebrow.
– You know she never apologized to me? She ended the story of that accident with a sneer.
Jennifer Lopez also talked about the incident in one of the interviews, however, she maintains that she apologized. – We talked about how to do it endlessly. I was so afraid of hitting Jane Fonda or hurting her somehow. And she was so jaded and said, Just hit me and don’t worry about it. I replied: No! I don’t want to hurt you! She told me: Just do it. So we’re shooting, and Jane’s really into it – she’s hit it real hard. All I remember is that she had a blood blister over her eye afterwards. I also hit my eyeball with my fingernail. I was terrified and screamed, “Oh god, I’m so sorry,” she recalled in 2019.
So it can be assumed that Jane Fonda was joking a bit in the latest program, or she forgot the singer’s terrified screams from the impression. And who said acting was an easy job?
How to Get a Mother-in-law was directed by Robert Luketic, and the production itself was the first film in which Jane Fonda starred after a 15-year break in her career. The cast also includes Michael Vartan, Wanda Sykes, Adam Scott, Monet Mazur, Annie Parisse, Will Arnett, Elaine Stritch and Stephen Dunham. The production budget was $43 million, and on IMDB you can read that the costs were more than paid off, because the production earned over $155 million worldwide.
