Jennifer Lopez‘s new movie Marry Me is now in theaters and streaming on Peacock!

Art imitating life! Jennifer Lopez is no stranger to the rom-com, but her latest film, Marry Me, is a lot more personal than much of her previous work.

"I feel so lucky and happy and proud to be with him," says Lopez, sounding not unlike a starry-eyed teenager. Marry Me, which is released today, sees her playing a singing superstar who is jilted at the altar, prompting her character to wed a random fan: a maths teacher played by Midnight In Paris star Owen Wilson. Happily inching toward tying the knot with Affleck in the real world, she looks back on her own broken romantic dreams and sees much of herself in her character isolated by fame and struggling to find true love.

Marry Me. It’s a 2022 J-Lo romantic comedy that feels plucked from the rom-com collection of yesteryear.  Based on Bobby Crosby’s 2010 graphic novel of the same name, Kat Coiro’s Marry Me establishes Jennifer Lopez’s Kat Valdez as a character who is very much aligned with the actress’ brand as an iconic pop singer who has millions of adoring fans.

Jennifer Lopez knows a thing or three about media harassment and being in the public eye 24/7, but that only makes the far-fetched romantic comedy Marry Me seem even less tolerable or redeemable than it might have looked on paper. In its opening minutes, this slickly made, music-drenched concoction serves up a premise so massively implausible — that one of the hottest female singers on the planet would replace her cheating macho fiancé in front of a live TV audience with an ineffectual single dad math teacher in his 50s — that it can never recover. It is, in two words, perfectly preposterous.

Owen Gleiberman Chief Film CriticThe romantic comedy as we know it has been through four phases. It was born with “It Happened One Night” (1934), and the glory of the classic romantic-comedy period (Hepburn and Tracy and so on) was the ’30s and ’40s, though it extended into the ’50s with a movie like “Pillow Talk.” The form enjoyed a cultural resurgence starting in 1989 and ’90, with the release of “When Harry Met Sally” and “Pretty Woman.” You could call that the Age of Nora Ephron, since she kind of ruled over it; the fact that that era spawned the term “rom-com” says a lot about how love comedies, in their born-again popularity, were becoming a kind of consumer product.

Though tried and true romantic comedies area dying breed, Jennifer Lopez and Owen Wilson make a bid to revive the genre (with a musical twist) in Kat Coiro’s “Marry Me,” which hits theaters just in time for Valentine’s Day. Based on Bobby Crosby’s graphic novel of the same name, “Marry Me” follows global music superstar, Kat Valdez (Lopez), who plans to marry her equally famous fiance, Bastian (Colombian singer-songwriter Maluma), in a combination concert/wedding set to be streamed for millions across the globe.

Maluma is in good company as he makes his feature film acting debut in. The 28-year-old Colombian superstar co-stars alongside Jennifer Lopez and Owen Wilson in the upcoming rom-com, out Friday. While chatting with ET's Nischelle Turner, Maluma shared why was the perfect first film."[It's] pretty surreal, that's the right word, pretty surreal.
