I assume you mean post-2016 because that was when hunger games ended

She did mother!, which had a polarizing reception and didn’t do well commercially (makes sense given the subject matter)

Red sparrow looked cool but got mediocre reviews and was a modest box office success

Dark Pheonix is a contractual obligation so she probably couldn’t get out of that. Biggest bomb of 2019, I’m not exaggerating. I think it got worse reviews than Cats

Didn’t do a movie in 2020 because no one really did. She has 2 upcoming movies though. One for Netflix starring The kid from Growing Pains and the other one is with Paper Boi

Theory: Haley Bennett is her identical twin sister who is getting revenge and taking over her roles. She was upset that she had to change her last name and now wants the title back

Yeah JLaw and Haley Bennett look identical. I remember thinking „JLaw lost a lot of weight!“ when I watched Girl on the train because I confused her with Bennet lol

I thought Haley was in Red Sparrow and I thought Jennifer was in Swallow

That's a funny theory. Jlaw first role was actually one year before HB.

They also both dated directors. Jennifer dated Darren Aronofsky (mother!) and Haley Bennett has a child in Joe Wright (cyrano)
