Jennifer Lawrence will be returning to the big screen in the New Year with her latest film Joy and she takes centre stage in this brand new poster for the film.

Joy

Joy sees Lawrence take on the title role in a film that is inspired by the life of single mum and entrepreneur Joy Mangano as she reunites with filmmaker David O. Russell.

O. Russell is one of the most exciting directors around and this is his third collaboration with the Oscar winning actress. They first collaborated on Silver Linings Playbook before going on to work on American Hustle.

Both movies were met with acclaim and Lawrence won the Best Actress Oscar for her work in Silver Linings Playbook and picked up a Best Supporting Oscar nomination for American Hustle.

Lawrence is not the only one who is reuniting with O.Russell for Joy, as Bradley Cooper and Robert De Niro are also on board. Edgar Ramirez, Isabella Rossellini, Diane Ladd, and Virginia Madsen complete an exciting and very talented cast list.

Joy is the wild story of a family across four generations centred on the girl who becomes the woman who founds a business dynasty and becomes a matriarch in her own right. Betrayal, treachery, the loss of innocence and the scars of love, pave the road in this intense emotional and human comedy about becoming a true boss of family and enterprise facing a world of unforgiving commerce.

Allies become adversaries and adversaries become allies, both inside and outside the family, as Joy's inner life and fierce imagination carry her through the storm she faces.

Joy is set to be a movie that is a New Year treat and I cannot wait to see Lawrence in her first role since the end of The Hunger Games franchise.

Joy is released 1st January.
