Jennifer Lawrence's new movie No Hard Feelings is a massive box office test for the star actress and R-rated comedies based on the last eight years of data. No Hard Feelings represents Jennifer Lawrence's first foray into doing a true comedy after spending the last several years establishing herself as one of the biggest names in Hollywood.
Jennifer Lawrence Hasn't Been A Box Office Star Since Hunger Games The reality is that Jennifer Lawrence's status as a true box office star mostly came to an end after the Hunger Games franchise concluded. The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2's release in 2015 marked the last time she was the main character in a movie that really performed financially. That is telling considering the movie is actually the lowest-grossing Hunger Games movie.
R-Rated Comedies Have Struggled At The Box Office Since 2017 Putting Jennifer Lawrence's relative box office struggles aside, the real challenge facing No Hard Feelings' box office is that it is an R-rated comedy. This genre of movie has struggled to achieve massive box office success since 2017. That was the last year that an R-rated comedy made over $100M domestically thanks to Girl's Trip. This obviously ignores franchises and R-rated action comedies, such as Deadpool 2.
