In December 2024, Lopez spoke with Entertainment Weekly about her film Unstoppable, in which she portrays champion wrestler Anthony Robles’ mother, Judy Robles. She reflected on how her experiences as a single parent shaped her perspective on the role.
“There have been times in my life where I’ve been a single mom, and I’ve questioned, ‘Am I enough for them?’ ” Lopez expressed. “The truth is, you really only need one good parent to love you.”
“You can hear it in Anthony’s voice, and look at what he has achieved,” she added, referring to the wrestler. “That’s what the movie taught me: You are enough.”
