Nigel Cole directing romantic comedy for Yari
Jennifer Lopez will topline Yari Film Group’s romantic comedy “The Governess,” with Nigel Cole directing. “The Governess” was written by Kevin Wade, who also penned Lopez starrer “Maid in Manhattan,” and Wendy Braff. Don Roos is polishing the script. Story centers on a professional thief who, in order to pull off a major bank heist, poses as a nanny to the three unruly children of a wealthy widower.

Bob Yari will produce along with Sid Ganis, Alex Siskin and Simon Fields, Lopez’ producing partner. Shooting’s set to begin in Massachusetts in the fall. “The Governess” has a SAG waiver. David Glasser, president of YFG’s sales arm Syndicate Films, will handle international sales.

Cole previously directed “Calendar Girls.” YFG recently wrapped production on thriller “Nothing But the Truth,” comedy “The Maiden Heist” and drama “Real Men Cry.” Joe Carnahan’s “Killing Pablo” is scheduled to begin filming in the fall.

Jennifer Lopez  and Marc Anthony call it a night after dinner at Beso, the restaurant opened by one of Lopez’ friends, Eva Longoria.

Jennifer Lopez says the thought of men finding her sexually attractive makes her laugh. The ‘Jenny From The Block’ hitmaker — who gave birth to her first children, Max and Emme, in February this year — finds being called a sex symbol “hilarious”. She says, “I should be so lucky to be called a sex symbol! Seriously, it’s hilarious and I always laugh at those comments. I really don’t see myself as one.” The singer — who celebrated her 39th birthday earlier this week — also revealed her main priorities in life are putting her husband and babies before her career. She added, “My priorities are all different now. At one point in my life, I was the main focus and my career was the most important thing, but not now. Marc and the babies are my priority now. “Now my happiness resides in having the choice to reside with my babies and that is absolutely beautiful. I know most mothers would feel and say the same thing but it’s just fantastic.”

Taking care of 5-month-old twins provides Jennifer Lopez with plenty of excitement. So when it came to celebrating her 39th birthday on Thursday, she opted for a low-key evening – and a Broadway show – with her husband, Marc Anthony. “We had such a blast last night,” Anthony, 39, told Ryan Seacrest on his KIIS radio show Friday. “It’s almost like every day is her birthday … so last night we just wanted it to be quiet and, you know, have a nice quiet evening together.”

The couple snuck into the Tony-winning musical In the Heights (about three days in an Upper Manhattan neighborhood), and got “to sit in an audience and watch other people be nervous,” Anthony said.  When asked about touring with babies Max and Emme, Anthony said: “When your foundation is stable and you’re good, it doesn’t really affect anything. It just amplifies what the experience feels like. It’s that much more fulfilling, and you look forward to coming home. It’s a great time.”
