J.Lo (Jennifer Lopez) is lined up to produce - and possibly star in - a big screen live-action version of the famous video game-turned-animated series "Where in the World Is Carmen Sandiego?," according to Deadline. The singer and Walden Media acquired rights to create the live-action film and though Lopez has signed on to produce, there are rumors that she would also star as Carmen Sandiego-Deadline said.
According to Walden Media�s statement, they are �developing it as a potential starring vehicle for Jennifer Lopez.� While Walden Media says that �no deal has been made yet� to have Lopez star as the notorious international thief, they say she is attached to the project as a producer. (EW reached out to Lopez�s rep who did not immediately respond to confirm.)
This wouldn't be the first time "Carmen Sandiego" was picked up as a movie. In the late '90s, Disney tried to develop a version starring Sandra Bullock, but it never materialized. Lopez recently wrapped production on the film "What to Expect When You're Expecting," co-starring Cameron Diaz.
