Jennifer Lopez dominates screen in ‘Kiss of the Spider Woman’ first look

The first trailer for Kiss of the Spider Woman is finally here and people cannot stop talking about Jennifer Lopez.

The movie is directed by Bill Condon, who is known for musicals like Dreamgirls and Beauty and the Beast but this time he is telling a smaller, more personal story.

The story is mostly set in a prison, which can feel dark and lonely. Diego Luna plays Valentín, a political prisoner and Tonatiuh plays Molina, his cellmate.

The trailer shows this mix of reality and fantasy, flipping between the cold, quiet prison and the bright, glittery musical world in Molina’s mind.
