Actress-singer Jennifer Lopez is set to produce and star in a new romantic comedy "Second Act".
"50 First Dates" director Peter Segal will helm the film, which follows a big-box store employee who, after reinventing herself, gets the chance to prove to Madison Avenue that street smarts are as valuable as a college degree, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
The script has been written by Justin Zackham and Elaine Goldsmith-Thomas.
"There are so many things I love about this project and script. People try to put women to sleep at a certain age. 'Second Act' is a story that empowers the every-woman to do more, to be more, and not limit their dreams," said Lopez.
Lopez's recent feature roles include mystery-thriller "The Boy Next Door" and animated movie "Home".
