New York, June 11: Now this role would come naturally to Jennifer Lopez, who is considering playing a woman engaged to the perfect guy. After all, she is the future Mrs Ben Affleck. The sexy singer-actress is in talks to play a blissful bride-to-be whose perfect wedding plans fall apart when she meets her disapproving mother-in-law in New Line Cinema's romantic comedy Monster-in-Law, according to a report in eonline.com.
However, New Line has yet to announce a start date for the movie. Also, a director has to be found before J Lo can start humming The Wedding March, the report said.
But that's fine with the Bronx-born babe as she has her hands full at the moment. The Wedding Planner star will grace movie theatres opposite her beau Ben this summer in Gigli, which hits theatres July 30. Then again, the two play newlyweds in Kevin Smith's "Jersey Girl", slated for a February 2004 release.
Also, in 2004, Lopez will appear in director Lasse Hallstrom's drama An Unfinished Life opposite Robert Redford, the English-language remake of the Japanese romantic comedy Shall We Dance? opposite Richard Gere and the thriller Tick Tock with Samuel L Jackson.
And, presumably, there's a real-life wedding to plan at some point, the report added.
