Despite having its premiere cancelled due to the Los Angeles wildfires, “Unstoppable,” a new sports drama starring Jennifer Lopez, is now streaming on Prime Video.
Emmy award winner, Jharrel Jerome stars in “Unstoppable” as Anthony Robles, a wrestler who was born with one leg and overcame the odds to become a NCAA champion. Lopez plays Judy Robles, his supportive single mother.
The Post’s entertainment critic Johnny Oleksinski saw the film during its world premiere at the 2024 Toronto International Film Festival (where Lopez made headlines for having an “intimate chat” with the film’s producer — and her ex-husband Ben Affleck‘s best friend — Matt Damon). In his review, Oleksinski wrote that Lopez is giving “one of her best performances in a minute” in the “fantastic, inspiring” film.
“Unstoppable” had a brief theatrical run in late 2024, but it is streaming now — and Amazon Prime subscribers won’t have to pay anything extra to watch it.
“Unstoppable” release date:
“Unstoppable” was released today, January 16, on Prime Video.
