Samantha Barbash, the woman whose story inspired Jennifer Lopez's character in 'Hustlers,' is suing the Golden Globes nominee's company for $40 million.

In the suit, TMZ said, Barbash says a scene that shows Ramona “using and manufacturing illegal substances in her home where she lived with her child” is untrue and offensive.

Barbash reportedly is asking for $20 million in punitive damages and $20 million in compensatory — and wants the company to turn over every copy of the movie, which made $157 million worldwide.Nuyorican Productions executives and Lopez’s legal representatives did not immediately respond to The Times’ requests for comment.in September that the strippers in the story were simply women who wanted to have control over their own destinies.

“But their focus on money, especially my character Ramona’s, sent them down a slippery slope,” Lopez said. “Did she end up being any different than the powerful people she was trying to hustle? That’s for the audience to decide.”
