No matter what role she’s taking on, Jennifer Lopez fully commits.

The multi-talented star, 49, showed off her rock-hard midsection on Instagram over the weekend, posing on the set of her upcoming film Hustlers.

Lopez expertly rocked a tiny pink bikini for the shot, complete with a matching lipstick shade, over-sized sunglasses and various jewelry including bracelets, large hoop earrings and a belly button ring.

“I’m a hustler baby … I just want you to know … #Ramona on fire 🔥 On set and in character for #hustlersmovie,” she captioned the photograph.

In the movie — also starring Constance Wu, Cardi B, Julia Stiles, Keke Palmer and Lili Reinhart — Lopez plays a stripper who bands together with her fellow employees to turn the tables on their clients.

One of Lopez’s biggest supporters as she prepared for the role in the film (which she is also co-producing) was fiancé Alex Rodriguez, who shared videos of her rehearsing a pole-dancing scene in February.

For the rehearsal, the World of Dance judge wore clear stiletto heels, a black sports bra and matching booty shorts. She watched herself in the mirror as she spun around on the pole and struck a pose.

Since Lopez was doing some dirty dancing in the rehearsal, the former MLB pro played “(I’ve Had) The Time of My Life” — a song from the soundtrack to 1987’s Dirty Dancing — while he filmed it for his Instagram story.

“It’s very hard! I have bruises everywhere,” Lopez told Jimmy Kimmel earlier that month of the training she has endured for the movie. “I have a lot of respect for people who do the pole. It’s much more difficult than [professional dancing]. It’s, like, acrobatic. It’s different muscle groups and the things they do with their legs, upside down, I’m like, ‘What? I can’t … hold on. Can we do that part again?’ ”

Along with her special workouts, Lopez also prepared for the role with a 10-day no-sugar, no-carb diet suggested by her trainer Dodd Romero — and Rodriguez, 43, did it with her!

On The Ellen DeGeneres Show in February, she recalled how cutting out sugar was a shock to her system, explaining, “Not only do you get a headache, but you feel like you’re in an alternate reality or universe. Like you don’t feel like yourself. You realize that you’re addicted to sugar.”

Lopez said that the first few days were tough, but by the end she felt so good that she was ready to do it again.

“What happens is, it takes down the inflammation a little bit,” the star added. “So all of a sudden you start feeling really small, and less swollen, and it feels good. You get addicted to that feeling too.”
