Interestingly, she began her career on screen before transitioning to sold-out shows. Jennifer got her start by landing the leading role in 1997’s Selena, and then inmersed in the music world, in 1999.

In the past, she has starred in popular titles such as “Hustlers” and “Second Act.” And there are many more projects on the horizon. Here’s where we will see Jennifer Lopez next.

Jennifer Lopez’s upcoming projects

The Godmother | TBA

“The Godmother” is one of Jennifer Lopez’s most anticipated works, but unfortunately, it has been stuck in development hell since 2020, resulting in scarce updates regarding a potential release date. However, it’s certain that it won’t hit screens this year.

In this upcoming film, Jennifer will portray the infamous drug lord Griselda Blanco, depicting her rise and fall. The screenplay will be penned by Regina Corrado and Terence Winter, both renowned for their work on “The Strain” and “The Sopranos,” respectively.

It is believed that the delay in the progress of “The Godmother” has mucho to do with the recent release of the “Griselda” series featuring Sofia Vergara.

It will mark the directorial debut of William Goldenberg, best known for his editing work in the “Transformers” movie franchise.
