Jennifer Lopez looked back on one of her most beloved films, Maid in Manhattan.
More than two decades after its release, Lopez shared a heartfelt message reflecting on her role as Marisa Venture.
On April 9, the actress and singer said on Instagram that she still thinks about the character all these years later.
Lopez wrote in the caption, “Twenty years later and I still think of Marisa Ventura. A single mother who moved through marble lobbies and thread count sheets that weren’t hers…but carried themselves like they could have been.”
She added: “Maid in Manhattan started as a script called The Chambermaid. @egt239 and I contacted Wayne Wang and together we dreamed of a girl with her nose pressed against the snow globe of Manhattan.”
“A girl from the Bronx, playing a girl from the Bronx, who dared to dream bigger than her zip code…,” Lopez said.
Concluding the caption, Lopez noted, “I was so lucky to share that set with Natasha Richardson, Bob Hoskins, Ralph Fiennes, Stanley Tucci, Tyler Posey and Amy Sedaris. What a movie. What a cast. What a time.”
This comes after a recent reunion between Jennifer Lopez and Ralph Fiennes at an industry event.
