Second Act: JLo Fulfils Her Career Ambitions in This Romantic Comedy


Jennifer Lopez. The name is enough to evoke a sense of devotion in every pop culture fanatic’s mind. Is it her fierce stage presence and showmanship or her flawless dance move that are deemed to be iconic? She is one of pop’s reigning queen who’s carved a unique place for herself in the world of modern pop culture.

Popularly known as J Lo, she’s also starred in many romantic comedies like Maid in Manhattan amongst others. The diva is all set to star in romantic comedy directed by Peter Segal and written by Elaine Goldsmith-Thomas and Justin Zackham.

The trailer of the movie opens with the dialogue, “I just wish we lived in a world where street smarts equal book smarts?” The plot of the movie revolves around Maya, a woman who gets a chance to land in the job of her dreams. The catch here is that, even though her talents are her own, her resume is not her own. Her friends forge all her credentials to make her achieve her dream life.

This is what Jennifer Lopez had to say about this movie, “There are so many things I love about this project and script. People try to put women to sleep at a certain age. Second Act is a story that empowers every woman to do more, to be more and not limit their dreams. I am thrilled to partner with STX as they continue to create and empower the female audience.”

Apart from the pop powerhouse, the movie also stars Vanessa Hudgens as Zoe, Leah Remini as Joan, Annaleigh Ashford as Hildy, Freddie Stroma as Ron, Dan Bucatinsky as Arthur, Milo Ventimiglia as Trey, Treat Williams as Anderson Clarke and Larry Miller as Weiskopf among others.
