Official Trailer Released for ‘Kiss of the Spider Woman’ Starring Jennifer Lopez, Diego Luna, and Tonatiuh

Earlier this morning, Roadside Attractions released the official trailer for Kiss of the Spider Woman. Bill Condon directs the adaptation, which stars Jennifer Lopez, Diego Luna, and Tonatiuh. The movie debuted earlier this year at the Sundance Film Festival and is scheduled for release in theaters on October 10th.

This is what the press release has to say:

Dreamgirls and Beauty and the Beast director Bill Condon returns to the movie musical in this dazzling Technicolor-hued fantasy.  Valentín (Diego Luna), a political prisoner, shares a cell with Molina (Tonatiuh), a window dresser convicted of public indecency. The two form an unlikely bond as Molina recounts the plot of a Hollywood musical starring his favorite silver screen diva, Ingrid Luna (Jennifer Lopez).   Based on the Tony Award-winning Broadway musical hit.

Bill Condon’s visionary new adaptation is based on the acclaimed 1976 novel Kiss of the Spider Woman by Argentinian writer Manuel Puig and the Tony Award®-winning Broadway musical of the same name by the multiple Tony Award®-winning playwright Terrence McNally (Master ClassRagtime) and composer/lyricist team John Kander and Fred Ebb (CabaretChicago). Written for the screen and directed by Bill Condon, this visually stunning and emotionally charged adaptation stars Emmy Award® nominee Diego Luna (AndorY tu mamá también), Tonatiuh (Carry OnPromised Land), and Emmy®, Grammy® and Golden Globes Award-nominated superstar Jennifer Lopez (HustlersOut of Sight), who also serves as an executive producer alongside Diego Luna. Produced by Barry Josephson, p.g.a., Tom Kirdahy, p.g.a., and Greg Yolen, p.g.a. 

An Artists Equity and Mohari Media presentation, Kiss of the Spider Woman is a Josephson Entertainment / Tom Kirdahy / Greg Yolen / Nuyorican production.

Unlike Mean Girls or The Color Purple, remaking Kiss of the Spider Woman as a musical actually… makes a lot of sense.
