"While we are currently juggling the order of the productions, my oldest daughter read the script that DJ sent to me, thinking that it would fall into the 'Pacifier' bracket. She cried… I asked her why she cried, and she said because the story of a brother and sister rang true for her and it was emotional," the actor continued.
"If I could make the film work that my daughter cried reading, my question for you would be, who would play my sister... she suggested Jennifer Lawrence. What do you think?" he posted.
