Serena

Jennifer and Bradley together again. Sounds great — but not in this drama made in 2012, now getting a release that's really an autopsy.

Ten minutes in, one can tell something is wrong with Serena. By the misguided ending, it’s a flat-out disaster.

Serena unites an impressive array of talent on either side of the cameras -- then leaves viewers to wonder how it all went so wrong.

What Really Happened to 'Serena,' Starring Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Lawrence

J-Law's back in business

George and Serena Pemberton (Academy Award® nominee Bradley Cooper and Academy Award® winner Jennifer Lawrence), love-struck newlyweds, begin to build a timber empire.

With power and influence now in their hands, the Pembertons refuse to let anyone stand in the way of their inflated love and ambitions. However, once Serena discovers George’s hidden past and faces an unchangeable fate of her own, the Pembertons’ passionate marriage begins to unravel.
