Jennifer Lopez Brings Maid To TV 8/13/08

Hollywood actress Jennifer Lopez is bringing her 2002 romantic comedy Maid In Manhattan to the small screen. The 39-year-old has teamed up with U.S. TV network ABC to produce a new series based on the hit film.

Lopez will not star in the program, but will serve as an executive producer - overseeing the production and the script. The show will mirror the plot of the big screen version, with a struggling maid working at a luxurious New York hotel, but it will feature an entirely different character.

Writer Chad Hodge tells the Hollywood Reporter, "The show is a different maid in a different Manhattan. She (Lopez) will be very integral in the pilot and series."
