J.Lo's Shady New Role In "The Governess"

Besides preparing to conquer a triathlon and holding-down family matters, Jennifer Lopez is stepping back into the limelight in the romantic comedy "The Governess." The movie, which is slated to premiere in December 2009, features the Boricua as a gangster thief after a rich widower's dinero.

In order to run the heist, the diva has to pose as an undercover nanny and take care of his three bratty kids, but eventually she gets caught-up in her own trampa and falls in love. Predictable? Maybe, but at least we can finally retire "Maid in Manhattan" and "The Wedding Planner" from our playlist! [Los Angeles Times]
