Jennifer Lopez Would Like To Be In A Super Hero Movie
By Nick Tylwalk
Well of course, J-Lo would want to be a super hero! Doesn’t everyone? It’s how you stay relevant in Hollywood these days, perfect for sustaining a career or reviving one. You decide which of those applies to Jennifer Lopez.

Anyway, Lopez talked to E! about her super hero wish while promoting her (dreadful-looking) latest film, The Boy Next Door. And she might even have a company picked out, as she addressed the president of Warner Bros. in the interview:
"Greg Silverman — I need to play a superhero!"
I’m sure Warner will get right on that. The trouble is, most of the juicy roles are already locked up for the near future. Gal Gadot is Wonder Woman, while the female parts in Suicide Squad have been cast as well.
The New York Daily News suggested perhaps Zatanna would work for J-Lo, and … actually, that’s not entirely insane. Clearly, though, she’s given this at least a little bit of thought already and is wondering why other people haven’t done the same thing:
"That would be awesome. I don’t know why somebody hasn’t thought about that yet."
Respectfully, Ms. Lopez, it might be that your movie career is currently at a point where you need super hero movies more than they need you. Then again, you could say the same thing for Will Smith, and he found his way into a comic book movie anyway.
What say you, readers? Anyone want to see J-Lo suit up and fight crime?
