The Back-up Plan is a comedy that explores dating, love, marriage and family in reverse. The Back-up Plan is a comedy that explores dating, love, marriage and family in reverse. After years of dating, Zoe (Jennifer Lopez) has decided waiting for the right one is taking too long. Determined to become a mother, she commits to a plan, makes an appointment and decides to go it alone. That same day, Zoe meets Stan (Alex OLoughlin) a man with real possibilities.  Trying to nurture a budding relationship and hide the early signs of pregnancy becomes a comedy of errors for Zoe and creates confusing signals for Stan. Anyone can fall in love, get married and have a baby but doing it backwards in hyper-drive is the real pregnancy test. Manos Gavras portrays Mario, a waiter that works at the restaurant that Zoe (Lopez) visits during the movie.

The Greek actor has also just completed the Australian film “Kings of Mykonos” directed by the award winning Peter Andrikidis.
