Jennifer Lopez can be seen in the first official trailer for Bill Condon’s movie musical “Kiss of the Spider Woman,” a new film adaptation of the 1993 Broadway classic. The story was previously adapted for a 1985 film starring William Hurt, Raul Julia and Sônia Braga.

The musical features a score by Kander and Ebb — the legendary duo behind Chicago and Cabaret — and a book by Tony Award winner Terrence McNally. It won seven Tonys including Best Musical and Best Actress for stage star Chita Rivera, who originated the title role.

In the film, Lopez plays Ingrid Luna, an on-screen diva whose most famous role is that of a spider woman, capable of killing her lovers with a kiss. In 1981 during Argentina’s Dirty War, a gay hairdresser named Luis (Tonatiuh) who is serving a prison sentence, imagines her films to escape the horrors of his present day. When a Marxist, Valentin (Diego Luna) is brought into his cell, the two form an unlikely bond over the magic of music and cinema.

Lopez can be heard in the trailer singing one of the musical’s most famous tracks, “Where You Are.”  Condon wrote the screenplay in addition to helming the film, with producers including Barry Josephson, Tom Kirdahy and Greg Yolen. Condon’s adaptation also draws inspiration from the Broadway musical and the acclaimed 1976 novel of the same name by Argentinian writer Manuel Puig.

“Kiss of the Spider Woman” premiered at Sundance Film Festival in January and is set to be released theatrically on Oct. 10 via Lionsgate; see the trailer – HERE.
