Directed by Lorene Scafaria, the movie is inspired by a New York Magazine article written by journalist Jessica Pressler that tells true story of several women and what they did after the 2008 financial crisis. “I felt a kinship to everyone, and I also felt a responsibility to the characters and sex workers, and wanted to portray something that felt authentic,” Lorene told Entertainment Weekly. “When you’re in New York and your clients work on Wall Street, when they were riding high, it was like money was falling from the sky, and then it stopped.”

The movie most famously stars JLo as a stripper, and the 50-year-old has been candid about the hard work she put in to play the part. “It’s a nightmare thinking about being up there. I’m exposing myself, let’s say, in a way, emotionally and physically more than I’ve ever done in a movie,” she previously told Elvis Duran Z00 Morning Show. “I’ve done videos that are very sexy...it’s not that, but this is a different mentality, and so as an actress it’s a scary…for me, it’s not scary, it just makes me nervous.”
