LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- As she gets ready for a return to the big screen, Jennifer Lopez is hoping to steal more than just the audience's heart.

Lopez has signed on to star in "The Governess," a romantic comedy about a woman (Lopez) who poses as a nanny to pull off a major bank heist.

In the film, Lopez takes a job as the nanny of three unruly kids who belong to a wealthy widower. But when she starts to fall for the kids - and their father - she must choose between her life of crime and a chance to start over.

"The Governess" was written by Kevin Wade, who also wrote J.Lo's "Maid in Manhattan."

Shooting is scheduled to begin in the fall in Massachusetts.

Lopez is currently in pre-production on the indie romantic comedy, "Love and Other Impossible Pursuits."

Her last big screen role came opposite husband Marc Anthony in the 2006 film "El Cantante."

Lopez's other recent film credits include "Monster-In-Law," "Jersey Girl" and "Shall We Dance?"

    "Jennifer Lopez probably considers it to be like receiving a large grant & an honor when she is offered big money to be in a movie whether or not it is scheduled for the big screen,or scheduled for regular tv,& dvds,etc ! A lot of the most enjoyable movies ever filmed are done that way,& i think she is appreciative big time,& that is partially why she keep

    I still don't understand how they paid even 10 dollars for those pics of her kids....I am sorry, but as kids go, those babies are BUTT UGLY. And, in true J Lo fashion, she keeps the money, instead of doing the right thing, and giving it to charity. Money never bought class-- Never has, and never will...she is living proof of that.
