In a recent interview with Variety, Jennifer Lopez was asked about his forthcoming music album This Is Me… Now. Here, she revealed how she was so excited about the album, and how she was inspired for the album only after she reunited with Ben Affleck.

Oh my God, it’s called, “This Is Me Now”, which we announced last year on the 20th Anniversary of “This Is Me Then”, because we had the album actually all written and done when I announced it last year. And since then I’ve kind of just been doing other things that are very special, kind of creating this whole musical experience for this album because I feel like it was such a special thing that happened, becoming inspired to write that when Ben and I got back together, being that the first album was, you know, when we were together 20 years ago, I wrote that one and so then this one was a new chapter in that experience. It’s almost like closing the loop in a way. I think it’s gonna speak for itself, but it’s definitely a love letter.  – Jennifer Lopez with Variety

The love story of Lopez and Affleck has been an inspiration for many. The possibility of it being explored further in This Is Me… Now is very exciting for their fans.

In a recent press conference for the upcoming movie musical, J Lo also revealed how The DCEU’s Caped Crusader motivated her to finish the script for This Is Me… Now.

“I was like, ‘I don’t write, I don’t do this.’ He was like, ‘You do, you write, you direct, you produce, you choreograph, you do all the things. Start stepping into that, start owning a little bit of who you are,’” she said.

“When Ben and I got back together, it was just like, ‘I want to make music again, I want to get back in the studio,’” … “I was very, very inspired.” “It ended this 20-year journey about a lot of questions that I had about love and being myself, a hopeless romantic, and what it means to enter into a kind of healthier, more self-accepting phase for myself. Now what will happen from that, I hope, will be even more wonderful things that I have been so privileged to live up until this point.” 

This Is Me… Now will release on February 16, 2024. It will be accompanied by a musical film This Is Me… Now: A Love Story on the same day, to be released on Amazon Prime.
