Jennifer Lopez is undeniably an iconic figure whose versatile career encompasses music, movies, and television. On the big screen, the 55-year-old artist has left indelible marks with her performances in numerous films such as Selena, Anaconda, Monster-in-Law, Hustlers, and Maid in Manhattan (2002), a beloved romantic comedy that still resonates with many. With the excitement around this classic movie remaining high, fans were thrilled when Lopez reunited with her co-star Ralph Fiennes, fueling speculation about a possible sequel. After their reunion, she expressed hope for a follow-up in a heartfelt message.
JLo was honored at Variety’s Creative Impact Awards in Palm Springs this weekend. The actress and songstress was specifically honored with the organization’s Legend and Groundbreakers due to her performance in the sports drama Unstoppable and her career in general. It was Ralph Fiennes, who presented her with the award and he paid a sweet tribute to his co-star in the process. Subsequently, the Marry Me star posted that speech to Instagram and wrote a lovely message:
I am incredibly grateful, Ralph Fiennes, for your heartwarming words and our delightful reunion from Maid in Manhattan today. It was a pleasure seeing you once more. Your presence moved me to tears, as you can tell from my sniffles throughout the speech (yes, that’s why I laughed). I adore you. Thank you so much for this unforgettable experience; collaborating with you is among the most memorable moments of my career thus far. I eagerly hope for another opportunity to work together soon on Maid in Manhattan 2 – who knows what the future holds? 💖✨
The overall feeling was extremely heartwarming, and it’s clear that fans were delighted when these two actors met again after so many years. What particularly piqued the interest of fans, however, was the suggestion by the “Love Don’t Cost a Thing” singer that she might be open to a new movie – a sequel to their early 2000s film. This proposal ignited a wave of enthusiasm among fans, with many expressing their excitement in the comments section about the prospect of a reunion:

Maid in Manhattan, helmed by Wayne Wang and penned by John Hughes (under an alias) and Kevin Wade, revolves around Marisa (played by Jennifer Lopez), a hotel maid and single mom who finds herself smitten with senatorial hopeful Chris (Ralph Fiennes). As Marisa attempts to deceive Chris into believing she’s a wealthy socialite, she must go to great lengths to maintain the charade. Critics weren’t overly impressed, but audiences flocked to the movie, resulting in global earnings of $154.9 million on a reported budget of $55 million.

There’s debate among some people that this movie isn’t among Jennifer Lopez’s top five romantic comedies, but it has undeniably captured the hearts of viewers for years. The thought of a sequel might excite some, yet it’s essential to ponder over the plot if one were to be made. Frankly, I can’t imagine what characters Marisa and Chris would be engaged in nowadays, though I’m certain creative producers could devise a captivating storyline.
It’s merely a thought at this point, but there’s a chance that Jennifer Lopez and Ralph Fiennes could star in a sequel to their film. Over the past few years, many movies have had sequels, some of which were unexpectedly well-received. So, it remains to be seen if they get another chance to play their roles. For now, it’s delightful to see them reunite during awards season.
right now, you can watch “Maid in Manhattan” by subscribing to Netflix for streaming; meanwhile, don’t forget to look out for upcoming movies in 2025, as both Mr. Fiennes and Ms. Lopez have new projects scheduled for release.
