'The Back-Up Plan' trailer alleviates last week's fear of Alex O'Loughlin scarcity

Last week, Alex O’Loughlin’s No. 1 fan Mandi Bierly was upset that the art for The Back-Up Plan featured O’Loughlin’s face in profile and his torso fully covered. She’ll be happy to see plenty of full-on facials and shirtless moments in the trailer embedded below. Get ready for a totally fierce tug-of-war over a pregnancy test between a lady and a dog!

I’m just happy to see that J. Lo actually did throw on her Louboutins to hobble down the hallways of a doctor’s office in this movie and therefore wasn’t lying in her song. Looking forward to this one in April, P-dubs, or does the trailer leave you on the same page as O’Loughlin’s character when he says “We shouldn’t have seen that?”

    i seriously do not get his appeal…he’s already killed off 2 shows on CBS.

    • Erin

      If you don’t get his appeal that’s fine… To each his own and all that.

      But why are you wasting your time, not to mention ours, commenting here?

    • Linda

      So who cares if you get his appeal
      or not. Plenty of people do get it.

    • TB

      But Bridget, have you ever seen the man in action? I personally starting crushing on him after seeing him in “The Oyster Farmer”. I dunno, it’s not just his cuteness. There is something about the guy that is very appealing.

    • alavenia

      Are you insane? Don’t get his appeal? Alex is very talented and not to mention GORGEOUS!

      • Erin

        Don’t waste your breath. Bridget is basically a troll.

    • Deana

      Bridget, excuse me but are you high? Alex O’Loughlin is without a doubt the sexiest most gorgeous man alive! He is also an incredible actor and very talented. This movie is going to be AWESOME because of him! And as for his two TV shows, they were both AWESOME because of him too and their cancellation was because of CBS’s incredibly bad judgment!

  • Jase

    I’ll watch it. I still have a soft spot for J.Lo!
    However, for some reason i have a complaint about the use of Miss Independent in the trailer. I felt it was too loud at times. Ok, thats all.

    • MrsBug

      I agree about JLo. I’ve seen most of her movies (except Maid In Manhattan, for some reason) and enjoyed them all.

  • eloise11

    looks really cute, and Jlo actually look good in it.

  • Rio

    seriously the best vampire in the last couple years – I’ll see him in whatever (but I do wish they’d let him speak with his native accent)

  • Sue

    This movie actually looks pretty good. Cute and Funny!! Plus Alex is hot to look at…Yummy!!!

  • leo

    Bridget! Are you serious? I would say Alex was one of the main reasons people watched the second show and gave it a chance. And CBS was solely responsible for the stupid decision to cancel Moonlight

    • kezza

      Alex is hot and yes CBS is stupid for not giving moonlight a second series,bet their kicking themselves now!!haha

  • leo

    This trailer looks very funny, he and J Lo have cute chemistry and whoa the scene with no shirt – I remembered why I always thought he was the sexiest vampire ever!

  • Christy

    Moonlight was a fantastic show. Warner Brothers and CBS screwed up. Alex is a wonderful actor and from the looks of this trailer, has awesome chemistry with Jennifer. I can’t wait to see the movie. Should be hilarious and I go to the movies to have fun.

  • Karen

    Anyone know the name of the song playing towards the end?

    • erica

      looks so cute ! i’ll see it.

    • erica

      and the last song is – Michael Franti – Say Hey

  • Katie Kruger

    Most of the rom-com trailers that I’ve seen lately have been about nasty people becoming less nasty and finding each other. Why would I care about people who I wouldn’t like? This does look like a fun movie and I think I’ll take a chance.

    • james

      i agree with you Katie, i’m not a big fan of rom-coms most of them really have unlikeable or dumb characters but this one suprisingly looks good.

  • jo

    i will see alex in anything. anything. and this movie proves it. hahahaaaaaa!

  • Sally in Chicago

    I like Jlo in rom com’s. She’s the second coming of Sandra Bullock.

    • peppy

      i liked the trailer but i loved you post. i will see the movie.

  • paige

    CBS obviously still loves him because CBS is distributing this dreck… how lucky for you all that CBS is no shelling out formulaic films to go with their formulaic t.v.

  • EP

    Well, I have never seen a show Alex has been in, but wow, he is hot! J. Lo is a lucky girl!

  • MD

    Not a big fan of JLo but I’ll pay to see Alex shirtless – so yummy!
    Someone please give Alex a show that will last longer than a year!
    I really loved both of the shows the shows he’s been in.

    • fancypants

      maybe he should just be a movie star instead? this movie seems like it may be a good start for him.
