Jennifer Lopez is putting her triple-threat talents on display in her latest big screen role.
Lopez, 55, takes on the role of an old Hollywood starlet in the first trailer for the upcoming movie musical Kiss of the Spider Woman, which was released on Thursday, June 5. The first look opens with glimpses of Lopez as Ingrid Luna/Aurora, who is the favorite actress of an imprisoned window dresser named Molina (Tonatiuh).
“What’s your favorite movie?” Molina asks his cellmate, a political prisoner named Valentín (Diego Luna), who responds he doesn’t have one. “I couldn’t live without movies. One of them, I’ll never forget, Kiss of the Spider Woman,” Molina adds.
The trailer cuts back and forth between Molina and Valentín’s struggles in prison with scenes of Molina’s fantasies of being a movie star alongside Ingrid. Playing over a montage of clips from the movie is Lopez’s powerful rendition of the film’s titular song.

“You can run / You can scream / You can hide / But you cannot escape,” her character sings into the camera at the end of the first look.
Lopez and Luna, 45, both serve as executive producers on the film, along with Lopez’s ex-husband Ben Affleck and his famous bestie Matt Damon. Bill Condon — who has directed other movie musicals such as 2006’s Dreamgirls and 2017’s Beauty and the Beast — serves triple duty as the film’s director, cowriter and executive producer.

Chita Rivera famously originated the role of Aurora in the 1992 West End production, the 1993 original Broadway production and the show’s 1996 original national tour.
The film adaptation made its premiere at the 2025 Sundance Film Festival back in January, at which Lopez teared up during a Q&A while talking about what the movie means to her.

“I’ve been waiting for this moment my whole life,” she said at a screening of the film, which Us Weekly attended. “The reason I even wanted to be in this business is because my mom would sit me in front of the TV and [West Side Story] would come on once a year. I remember I was mesmerized and was like, ‘That’s what I want to do.’ That was always my goal.”
She emotionally added, “This is the first time I actually got to do it. This man [Bill Condon] made my dream come true!”
Lopez paid homage to the film’s title by sporting a cobweb-printed dress for red carpet pics with costar Tonatiuh, 30.

“There’s nothing going on here,” the insider clarified. “They’re just friends.”
Kiss of the Spider Woman hits theaters on October 10.
