Jennifer Lopez continues to share her excitement for her upcoming Netflix project ‘Office Romance.' The Hollywood star is focusing on her professional career and has a busy schedule, as she is currently filming the new project, following the premiere of 'Kiss of the Spider Woman' at Sundance earlier this year.
Now the star is sharing more details of the romantic comedy, revealing that the latest addition to the cast is none other than her on-screen dad Edward James Olmos.
