London, Aug 9 : Actress Jennifer Lopez has signed up to star opposite to Jason Statham in "Parker".
JLo, who took a three-year break from films before making Alan Poul's "The Back-Up Plan" last year, will join actor Jason Statham along with Nick Nolte for forthcoming noirthriller.
The 42-year old will play a real estate agent, while Nolte will be a mentor to Statham's title character in the movie, which is an adaptation of Donald Westlake's 2000 book Flashfire.
Describing JLo's role, director Taylor Hackford told the Hollywood Reporter: "She plays a real estate agent who finds that a little larceny may in fact be in the cards for her."
