Jennifer Lopez has secured her next rom-com role.

On Tuesday, Sept. 17, multiple outlets reported that Lopez, 55, will star opposite Ted Lasso's Brett Goldstein in an upcoming Netflix romantic comedy titled Office Romance.

While no details regarding the movie's storyline were immediately available, Goldstein, 44, is reportedly writing the screenplay with another Ted Lasso alum, Joe Kelly.

Lopez confirmed the casting news, sharing Deadline's article about it on her Instagram Stories, writing, "This is going to be fun!!!"

Deadline reported that Netflix won a "a hot bidding war for the feature," which will mark Lopez's third movie with the streamer after 2023's The Mother and Atlas, which released earlier in 2024.

Lopez stars in the upcoming sports drama Unstoppable, which premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival on Sept. 6. The movie covers the story of real-life wrestler Anthony Robles, who was born with one leg and went on to become a champion athlete.
