As a long-time fan who has followed Brett Goldstein’s career from his humble beginnings to his Emmy-winning role in Ted Lasso, I can confidently say that the news of him co-starring with Jennifer Lopez in Office Romance feels like a dream come true. The adorable crush he harbored for JLo during her Hustlers days was evident even back then, and it’s heartwarming to see that dream materialize on screen.
While Brett Goldstein portrayed Roy Kent on the hit series Ted Lasso, he delved into romantic storylines via his character’s relationship with Keeley Jones, played by Juno Temple. If you were among the many who enjoyed Goldstein’s performances and yearned to see more of this aspect in his acting, you’ll be delighted to know that recent announcements reveal he will star alongside Jennifer Lopez in an upcoming Netflix romantic comedy titled Office Romance. This news has sparked excitement among fans, as they’ve noticed Goldstein expressing a fondness for JLo in real life – even going so far as to describe her as an ideal cuddler!
A user named @BensShirt recently unearthed a clip from an episode of Goldstein’s podcast, Films to be Buried With, which was published towards the end of 2019. This was approximately six months before the debut of Ted Lasso. In this episode, Goldstein expressed his admiration for the movie Hustlers, released in the 2010s and starring Jennifer Lopez as Ramona Vega, a stripper and lap dancer. He initially showered the film and its lead actress with the following compliments:
Have you watched the movie “Hustlers”? Let me tell you, it’s exceptionally well-made across all aspects, making it worth a watch. And by the way, did you know Jennifer Lopez is 50? Incredible, isn’t it? I must say, I admire her!
After focusing on a specific scene in the movie “Hustlers”, Brett Goldstein found himself intrigued by the moment when Lopez’s character, on a rooftop, shares her fur coat with Constance Wu’s character while they’re both dressed rather scantily. This interaction sparked in him a desire to have a cuddle with Jennifer Lopez himself, as he put it.
Currently, one of the questions here is about the best cuddle scenario, and my response is from the movie “Hustlers.” There’s a scene on the rooftop where a character, played by Jennifer Lopez, sits in a large fur coat. A new girl joins her, feeling shy, and Jennifer Lopez gives her a comforting hug while both are wrapped in the fur coat… At that moment, I found myself yearning for such a warm embrace more than ever.
I can only speculate that when Goldstein agreed to star in “Office Romance”, he might have asked for a loving scene with Lopez to be written into the script. In fact, I’d dare say it could have been a condition for him taking the role! Whether we’ll get a cozy moment between them remains to be seen, but back in 2019, this Emmy-winning actor concluded his review of JLo in “Hustlers” with these warm sentiments:
It’s not just her butt, it’s her face, and her hair, and her legs, and her smile.
Besides handling their acting responsibilities, Jennifer Lopez and Brett Goldstein are also involved in producing the romantic comedy titled “Office Romance”. Moreover, Goldstein collaborated on writing the script for this film with fellow “Ted Lasso” cast member Joe Kelly. As of now, specific details about the plot are yet to be disclosed; however, it’s clear that Jennifer Lopez and Brett Goldstein’s characters will find themselves in a romantic relationship within a professional setting. The release date for “Office Romance” is still unknown, but it’s expected to premiere on Netflix at some point in the future.
By the way, if you’re keen on catching JLo’s films on that particular streaming service, both “The Mother” and “Atlas” are currently available for viewing. If you prefer to watch “Hustlers”, you’ll need a Hulu subscription to access it.
