The happily married actress arrived on set in Atalanta, Georgia to film the comedy-ensemble cast film
Mother's Day directed by Gary Marshall. This marks the third holiday film for director Marshall whose also responsible for (2010's)
Valentine's Day, and (2012's)
New Year's Eve. This also marks Aniston's second ensemble film having previously starred in 2009's
He's Just Not That Into You. Jennifer will star along side actors: Julia Roberts, Kate Hudson, and Jason Sudeikis. The plot of
Mother's Day is intersecting stories with different moms colliding on the holiday dedicated to mothers.
Jennifer is set to play Sandy, and this is Variety magazine's character outline prediction: Jen's character is a yoga teacher in L.A. (which is already wrong because filming is taking place in Atlanta, GA unless their going to attempt to pass Georgia off as Los Angeles) anyhow..her character has a string of no-good ex-boyfriends. She's sworn off love, but then one day a hot young gentleman enters her yoga studio whom Jen's character can't help but notice. The two take on private lessons outside of Jen's characters regular yoga class schedule, and from their it turns into a passionate/steamy affair. Months later Jen's character discovers she's pregnant, but decides she can't have a baby with a baby implying that the gentlemen she slept with is a younger man. BUT...that's just Variety's spin on Jen's character tale.
