Joy Mangano always wanted to be an inventor and, after getting married, having three children and then getting divorced, she finally decides to follow her dream. It's often the male entrepreneurs that people remember in history, but Joy proves that women can be just as powerful as she rises to become president of her own company, Ingenious Designs, and invents the cutting edge cleaning system, 'Miracle Mop'; all while taking care of a family on her own and running into some difficult circumstances along the way. Betrayed, occasionally on the wrong side of the law and suffering from many losses, Joy is the living embodiment of what doesn't kill you makes you stronger - and with millions of dollars in sales, she's certainly stronger.

'Joy' is the forthcoming biopic based on the real life and career of a genius matriarchal entrepreneur, who literally built a business empire from nothing. Jennifer Lawrence and Bradley Cooper re-unite having previously co-starred in 'American Hustle' and 'Silver Linings Playbook', and at the helm of 'Joy' is the Oscar nominated director of both those movies, David O. Russell, who co-wrote the screenplay with Annie Mumolo ('Bridesmaids'). The film is set for release in the UK on January 1st 2016.
