Jennifer Lopez<\/strong> couldn’t believe just how well her costar, Brett Goldstein<\/strong>, knew about her entire filmography.<\/p>\n

The pair, who star in the upcoming Netflix romantic comedy Office Romance, tested their chemistry in a recent interview. The segment shows J.Lo asking Goldstein questions about some of her most popular movies<\/a>, and to her surprise, he got every single one right.\u00a0<\/p>\n

During the sweet interview, the Shrinking co-creator gushed over his love for Lopez’s movies, answering question after question about films like Hustlers, Maid In Manhattan, The Wedding Planner, and more.\u00a0<\/p>\n

After answering yet another question correctly, the singer asked, “how did you know that?”\u00a0<\/p>\n

Goldstein answered, “Did you think I made it up, that I was a fan?”<\/p>\n

“No, yeah, kind of. Yes,” J.Lo answered with a giggle.\u00a0<\/p>\n

They Had Instant Chemistry While Filming Office Romance<\/h3>\n

During a recent interview with People, Lopez shared that she and the\u00a0Ted Lasso breakout star immediately clicked while filming<\/a> the movie together.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe had chemistry right away,\u201d Lopez explained. \u201cAnd as we spent more time filming together, it only became stronger.\u201d<\/p>\n

The actress and singer said the comfortable dynamic between them helped bring authenticity to their on-screen relationship in the highly anticipated rom-com.<\/p>\n

Jennifer Was Surprised by Brett\u2019s Real-Life Personality<\/h3>\n

Although Lopez was already familiar with Goldstein\u2019s work from the Emmy-winning series Ted Lasso, she admitted she expected him to resemble his tough-talking character Roy Kent much more in real life. But, instead, she discovered a completely different side of the actor<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cI thought he\u2019d be a little rough around the edges,\u201d Lopez confessed. \u201cBut he\u2019s actually incredibly thoughtful, gentle, intelligent, and charming.\u201d<\/p>\n

The 56-year-old star said Goldstein\u2019s softer personality caught her off guard in the best way possible.<\/p>\n

\u201cI loved him as Roy Kent because that\u2019s one of my favorite television characters ever,\u201d she added. \u201cSo I assumed he\u2019d be similar off-screen, but he\u2019s actually very sweet and soft-spoken.\u201d<\/p>\n

Brett Goldstein Wrote the Movie Specifically for J.Lo<\/h3>\n

As it turns out, Lopez was always meant to lead Office Romance.<\/p>\n

Goldstein, who co-wrote the screenplay with collaborator Joe Kelly<\/strong>, revealed that Lopez was the first person they imagined for the role while developing the project.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen we started talking about who the perfect romantic comedy lead would be<\/a>, we immediately said J.Lo,\u201d Goldstein shared.<\/p>\n

According to the actor, writing the film became easier once they envisioned Lopez at the center of the story.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe\u2019s one of the greatest rom-com stars ever,\u201d he explained. \u201cWe wanted to create something funny and smart that would actually be worthy of her saying yes.\u201d<\/p>\n

Jennifer Lopez Immediately Loved the Script<\/h3>\n

Lopez previously revealed that she was hooked on the project almost instantly after reading the screenplay.<\/p>\n

During an earlier appearance on SiriusXM\u2019s BPM channel, the actress recalled how passionate the writers were about having her star in the film.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey basically told me, \u2018We wrote this for you, and if you don\u2019t do it, we\u2019re probably not making it,\u2019\u201d Lopez said.<\/p>\n

The actress explained that both she and longtime producing partner Elaine Goldsmith-Thomas quickly connected with the material because of its humor and charm.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe thought it was genuinely funny,\u201d Lopez shared. \u201cWe really loved it.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
