Jennifer Lopez to Produce & Star in Drug Lord Drama 'The Godmother'!
Jennifer Lopez is taking on another role!
The 50-year-old star will star in and produce The Godmother, based on the true-life Colombian drug lord Griselda Blanco, THR reported on Thursday (July 25).
Jennifer may also direct the movie, which would mark her directorial debut!
“I’ve been forever fascinated by the story of Griselda Blanco and jumped at the chance to play her onscreen. She is all the things we look for in storytelling and dynamic characters — notorious, ambitious, conniving, chilling,” Jennifer said in a statement.
The movie will “chronicle the notorious drug lord, who outsmarted rivals as she rose from an impoverished childhood in Colombia to become a key figurehead in Miami’s drug trade wars.”
