JENNIFER GARNER ALWAYS WANTED TO PLAY RYAN’S MOM IN THE ADAM PROJECT

The 49-year-old actress was very excited about the project as soon as it fell
into her lap. She couldn’t miss out on the opportunity to work with Shawn Levy
and reunite with Mark again. For fans of 13 Going on 30, this reunion was
poignant. 

 “Oh gosh! I loved the story, the basic idea, I loved everyone involved. Shawn
Levy is a director I wanted to work with for a really long time. But, then also
getting to work again with Mark was an absolute bonus. It was a no-brainer.
There was no way that I was not going to do it,” she said

Talking about her character in the Netflix
[https://www.netflix.com/title/81309354] movie, she says, “This is a woman who
recently lost her husband in a tragic accident. And, her son is really angry and
she is trying to do the best she can. She is trying to figure out the method her
husband used to pay the bills. She is trying to take care of a child who gets in
trouble over and over again. The gift of the film is that her son, as an adult,
comes back and visits her. He heals her wounds in the present moment.”
