New Jennifer Lopez, Owen Wilson and Maluma movie Marry Me's release date, cast, plot and soundtrack revealed.
Jennifer Lopez is back with a new movie, and it looks like it could be the film that brings back the old-school style of romcom.
Owen Wilson, Maluma and Sarah Silverman also star in the musical comedy, but what is the film about and what songs appear?
Latin pop star Kat Valdez (Jennifer Lopez) discovers that her on-stage partner (Maluma) has been having an affair behind her back with his assistant.
In the heat of the moment, she suddenly chooses to marry a stranger, concert-goer Charlie Gilbert (Owen Wilson), who happens to be holding a 'Marry Me' sign by accident.
The film is based on the comic series, also called Marry Me.
Alongside Jennifer Lopez and Owen Wilson, Columbian singer Maluma plays popstar Bastian in the film.
There are also supporting roles for Games of Thrones star John Bradley, comedian Sarah Silverman, British actor Jameela Jamil and Jimmy Fallon as himself.
