Jennifer Lopez was the featured guest on the June 10 episode of her Office Romance co-star Brett Goldstein’s podcast, “Films to Be Buried With.”

In the episode, she opened up about many movies that she’s loved over the years, including 1993’s crime thriller True Romance.

Candidly, she admitted she “would have had sex with any one of” the film’s stars.

Jennifer Lopez and Brett Goldstein played love interests in Netflix’s romantic comedy Office Romance, and she appeared on his podcast, “Films to Be Buried With,” on June 10. Her comfort with Goldstein was evident, as her candor was cranked up to the maximum—including the entertainer naming the movie that she finds to be the most “arousing.”

That film, cutting to the chase, is 1993’s crime thriller True Romance, starring Christian Slater, Val Kilmer, Patricia Arquette, and Gary Oldman—and Lopez said she “would have had sex with any one of them.”

The cast, she added, “were so incredibly fucking good,” adding that “There are all these very seedy characters in the movie.”

“You have Christian Slater, who works in this record store and has hallucinations of Elvis—who’s played by Val Kilmer,” the “On the Floor” singer explained. “And then you have Patricia Arquette, who couldn’t be better as the hooker with the heart of gold, the sweetest.”

Even after Arquette’s character is beat up, “she’s still sexy,” Lopez said. “You still want to kind of kiss her on the lips. You know what I mean? It’s crazy, that movie.”

The cast also included “James Gandolfini as a hitman” and “Brad Pitt as a stoner,” Lopez said. Dennis Hopper, Christopher Walken, and Samuel L. Jackson also appeared in the film, which was written by Quentin Tarantino and directed by Tony Scott.

After confessing that she would “have had sex with any one of them,” she doubled down. “That is the truth. Which says a lot about me, but maybe, like, the dark side of me.”

Other formative movies of Lopez’s life included 1961’s West Side Story, 1983’s Flashdance, 1986’s 9½ Weeks, 2004’s The Notebook and Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story, and 2024’s I’m Still Here.

Of the latter film, she spoke on the podcast about going through her divorce from Ben Affleck and watching the movie—while sick—around Christmas with her father. “My dad was sitting there and something happened in my head and I just started crying, where I started calculating all of the things with my kids, my experience with my dad—like, everything happened just all at once,” she said. “My whole family knew I was going through a hard time.”

Lopez was “trying to cry quietly,” she said, but found herself sobbing, “like water gushing down my face,” she explained. Her dad asked her what was wrong, and “I said, ‘Dads are so important,'” she remembered. “And he just kind of came over to me and grabbed my face and said, ‘I love you. I always loved you.’ And that kind of changed my life in that moment.”

“[It] healed a part of me that needed to be healed to kind of move on from that part of my life and from those types of relationships in my life,” the Hustlers star said. “So that movie changed me and helped me grow.”

Of The Notebook, she added, “There is nothing more romantic. That’s what everyone wants, is to have that connection and to love someone so deeply that you can’t imagine your life without them.”

Lopez’s connection to Goldstein was evident in her intimate answers to his questions. “We had great chemistry to begin with,” she told People. “It just grew as we did the film together.”

“I expected more of a rough guy, but you get this kind, gentle but also very smart person that is so charming,” she continued. “That was a surprise, I think.”
