In the Netflix sci-fi action film “Atlas” directed by Brad Peyton, Jennifer Lopez takes on the role of a data analyst named Atlas who must utilize AI to combat an evil robot threatening the Earth, played by Simu Liu. Reflecting on the film at its premiere in Los Angeles, Lopez expressed how the movie effectively showcases the potential dangers and benefits of AI.

Brown, who plays a military officer alongside Atlas, praised Lopez for her strong work ethic and dedication on set.
