Jennifer Lopez to land new series with Netflix
Jennifer Lopez launched a brand new Netflix series amid continuously highly igniting split rumours about her marriage with Ben Affleck.
The 54-year-old diva, who didn’t get too much appreciation for her Amazon Prime series titled The Greatest Love Story Never Told, which was about her rekindled relationship with Affleck, 51, signed up an agreement with the streaming platform through her company Nuyorican to base the project on a novel Happy Place by Emily Henry.
According to Deadline, the plans to adapt the storyline “as a series are underway” with producers and streaming executives, who are in meeting with writers.
Happy Place is the story of a couple Harriet and Wyn who abruptly break up after meeting in college.
Lopez will contribute as one of the producers on the series alongside Elaine Goldsmith-Thomas and Benny Medina.
Lopez’s movie before this initiative, This is Me Now… A Love Story was globally labelled “bonkers” and an “over-the-top delight for fans” by critics.
Some fans have called her “delusional” and “out of touch” after seeing her in the documentary.
One frequently criticised scene in the movie features J Lo playing with her hair in the mirror as she remembers her childhood in the Bronx, a well-known working-class district in New York.
