‘The Boy Next Door’ Gets Obsessed with Jennifer Lopez in First Trailer Erotic thrillers from the ’90s, featuring a twisted character obsessed with the protagonist, were a lot of fun. The upcoming “The Boy Next Door” (in theaters January 23, 2015) explores that same premise with Jennifer Lopez interpreting the object of a very unhealthy -and potentially fatal- attraction. Watch the first trailer and share your thoughts! “Jennifer Lopez leads the cast in The Boy Next Door, a psychological thriller that explores a forbidden attraction that goes much too far. Directed by Rob Cohen (The Fast and the Furious) and written by Barbara Curry, the film also stars Ryan Guzman, John Corbett and Kristin Chenoweth. The Boy Next Door is produced by Jason Blum of Blumhouse Productions, Lopez and Elaine Goldsmith-Thomas of Nuyorican Productions, Benny Medina of The Medina Company and John Jacobs of Smart Entertainment.”
