Jennifer Lopez Takes on a Lethal AI in Official “Atlas” Trailer

Atlas Shepherd (Jennifer Lopez) is not a fan of artificial intelligence, but in director Brad Peyton’s sci-fi thriller Atlas, she’s going to have to learn how to differentiate the evil AI from the kind that might save humanity. The official trailer puts more meat on the bone (or bytes in the code?) in the Lopez-led thriller for Netflix, who returns to the streamer after delivering a knockout blow with her action hit The Mother last year.

Jennifer Lopez is Lost in Space in First “Atlas” Trailer

Jennifer Lopez lost in space. That’s a conceit that sells itself, but there’s a whole lot more to Lopez’s upcoming film Atlas, director Brad Peyton’s starry sci-fi thriller for Netflix. Lopez is no stranger to Netflix, with her action hit The Mother knocking out Netflix viewer records last year.

The first teaser for Atlas has landed, revealing Lopez’s Atlas Shepherd, a brilliant data analyst with a misanthropic side who is forced to do what to her is utterly unthinkable—ally herself with artificial intelligence in order to course-correct during a space voyage in which she was tracking down a renegade robot.
