Lopez opened up about her failure to score an Oscar nod while being interviewed by Oprah Winfrey during the 2020 Vision: Your Life In Focus Tour and admitted that it felt like a little bit of a letdown.

“I was sad, I was a little sad because there was a lot of buildup to it… Also, I felt like my whole team – most of my team has been with me for years, 20, 25 years – and I think they had a lot of hopes on that and they wanted it too, so I felt like I let everyone down a little bit,” explained J.Lo.

Jennifer Lopez still received a lot of praise and numerous other nominations for her supporting role in Hustlers – including Golden Globe and Indie Spirit nods.

The lack of Oscar nomination didn’t hurt her career one bit, and she showcased her talent in front of the whole nation only a week before the ceremony with her explosive Super Bowl halftime show performance.

Hustlers filmmaker Lorene Scafaria says she’s currently attempting to adapt her film for the stage. Scafaria revealed the news to Variety on the Golden Globes red carpet Sunday night. “We’re just starting,” the 41-year-old director told the outlet. “I said it to them a few months ago that I thought it would be a good idea, that’s all. Who knows. I’m trying to develop it for the stage!”

The film followed a tight-knit clan of strip club employees — Jennifer Lopez, Constance Wu, Cardi B, Lizzo, Keke Palmer, and Lili Reinhart, who scam money from their rich Wall Street clients amid the 2008 financial crisis. 

Back in December Lopez told Extra that a Broadway adaptation would “be amazing.”

“It really lends itself to a Broadway show, and to a live-performance show,” she told Extra. “I don’t know that I would do it. I would produce it, for sure. I don’t know. Maybe. You never know with me.”

“Jennifer Lopez is a star in every sense of the word, and you will experience this in her latest film Hustlers… For this full-force yet grounded performance, deserving of awards consideration, we are thrilled to present Jennifer Lopez with this year’s Spotlight Award,” said Matzner.

Hustlers centers on a group of former strip club employees, who decide to take revenge on their corrupt Wall Street clients, and also stars Constance Wu, Julia Stiles, Keke Palmer, Lili Reinhart, Lizzo, and Cardi B. The movie was met with critical acclaimed and earned over $150 million on the box office.
