Hollywood star Jennifer Lawrence is teaming up with Gene Stupnitsky for an R-rated comedy movie. The film, titled No Hard Feelings, is described as a coming-of-age dramedy. It has been picked up by Sony Pictures, reported Variety. Stupnitsky, best known for his stint as a writer and co-executive producer on NBC's The Office as well as his directorial debut film Good Boys, will helm the movie from a script that he will write with Joan Phillips.

"No Hard Feelings" is set in Montauk, NY, a hamlet on the east end of Long Island. Pregnant Jennifer Lawrence Attends Rally For Abortion Justice With Comedian Amy Schumer.

The project is touted as an R-rated comedy in the vein of Tom Cruise's 1983 film Risky Business and Cameron Diaz-starrer Bad Teacher, which Stupnitsky served as an executive producer and writer on. Sony Pictures reportedly faced some competition from other major studios and streaming services in its pursuit of the project. Universal Pictures, the studio that backed Stupnitsky's “Good Boys”, was also in fray but Sony eventually came out on top. Don’t Look Up: Leonardo DiCaprio, Jennifer Lawrence Warn Meryl Streep’s President and Jonah Hill’s Chief of Staff About an Apocalypse!
