Jennifer Lopez is set to star in the romantic comedy The Governess with Nigel Cole directing.

The story focuses on a professional thief who, in order to pull off a major bank heist, poses as a nanny to the three unruly children of a wealthy widower. When she starts to fall for the kids and their father, she must decide if she can give up her past for a chance to start over.

Filming will begin in Massachusetts in the fall.
