The Back-Up Plan (earlier known as "Plan B") directed by Alan Poul is an forthcoming romantic comedy movie, starring Jennifer Lopez and Alex O'Loughlin. It is scheduled to be released in theaters in the US on April 23, 2010. As a producer his first movie was Black Rain (1989)
Zoe (Jennifer Lopez) is well aware that her biological clock is ticking, so now she desparately needs to be a mother, but she just can't find the type of guy she'd want to settle down and start a family with. Finally, she makes the decision to become a single mother so she gets artificially inseminated through a sperm bank. The very same day that Zoe follows through her plan, however, she meets Stan (Alex O'Loughlin), a single enchanter whom she thinks would make a great father. While at first Zoe struggles to hide the truth from Stan, before it is too long she decides to disclose the truth. Much to her wonder, Stan responds excitedly, saying that he's in it for the long haul. Over the course of the next nine months, Zoe and Stan enter into a whirlwind romance, begin drawing up wedding plans, and mapping out the rest of their lives together. But will their growing love collapse under the stress of all this weight, or was it simply meant to be that Zoe and Stan would both find each other at such a crucial turning point in each other's lives?
It was rated PG13 for sexual matter including references, some crude material and language. Kirk Honeycutt from The Hollywood Reporter gave the picture a positive review saying that 'A successful performance by Jennifer Lopez overcomes a formulaic and predictable rom-com that involves a planned pregnancy.'
