Jennifer Lopez To Star In New Film ‘Marry Me’
Following her role in the upcoming film, “Hustlers,” Jennifer Lopez will also star in the STXfilms production, “Marry Me.”
The romantic comedy is being directed by Kat Coiro, and may also star Own Wilson, who is in final negotiations to team up with Lopez, Variety reported.
“Marry Me” is centered around a pop star, who Lopez will play, who marries a Rockstar and finds out he cheated on her with her assistant, pushing her to pick a random stranger in the crowd to marry, played by Wilson. The movie is based on the novel by Bobby Crosby.
This is not the first movie that Lopez and Wilson have appeared in. The pair both starred in the 1997 film, “Anaconda.”
For Lopez, however, this will be the third STXfilms production that she will star in. Both “Hustlers” and “Second Act” are STXfilms movies, which feature Lopez and directors Elaine Goldsmith-Thomas and Benny Medina.
“We continue to have amazing experiences with Jennifer, Elaine and Benny with each film we collaborate on, and we’re thrilled that they wanted to work with STX again on this funny and endearing project,” Adam Fogelson, chairman at STXfilms, told Variety. “Owen Wilson is a hilarious and charismatic addition to the film, and the perfect person to play opposite Jen in a role that was quite literally made for her.”
The film, which will begin shooting this fall, was written by John Rogers and Tami Sagher with rewrite of the film was performed by Harper Dill, the news outlet said.
