What is the new movie Here about?

Based on the graphic novel by Richard McGuire, Here follows the story of multiple families across time, and explores the places — and homes — they inhabit. "The story travels through generations, capturing the most relatable of human experiences," according to an official synopsis of the movie, which is "a tale of love, loss, laughter and life, all of which happen right Here."

When is Here coming out?

Here comes to movie theaters on November 15, 2024. With so much emphasis on family and home, this is going to be the perfect pre-holiday movie to watch with the people you love the most. Check out the rest of this year's Fall Movies to see what else is coming this year!

Who's in the cast of Here?

Here stars Tom Hanks, Robin Wright, Paul Bettany, Kelly Reilly, and Michelle Dockery.

Where is Here filmed?

Here began filming at the end of 2022 in London, and director Robert Zemeckis revealed the camera stays in exactly the same place throughout the entire movie. “The single perspective never changes, but everything around it does,” he tells Vanity Fair. “It’s actually never been done before."

"It was all just great fun, they're all lovely people," Kate Winslet tells Vanity Fair. "And Cameron [Diaz'] whole thing ever in life is 'How can I have the most fun possible?' So she's constantly laughing, she's constantly joking. And Jack, of course, he just does something different every take."

While rom-coms don't usually have space for improv since the movie relies on specific timing, Kate says the actor always found a way to keep everyone on their toes. "[It's] eternally refreshing," she continues. "I was always really grateful for that."

However, not only did Jack find a way to ad-lib some of his lines, but he also started a set trend that Kate Winslet follows to this day! "My onset nickname to this day is K-Dub...and Jack started it," she reveals. "That is my name, everyone at work just calls me K-Dub."

Kate admits she'd love to work with Jack Black "again and again and again," which is a sentiment he shares as well. During the press tour for Kung Fu Panda 4, he talked about how Kate Winslet is his favorite costar of all time. "When you look in her eyes, she was, like, really present," he tells Entertainment Tonight. "And I feel like if you look into my eyes, you just see a shadow of a robot."

#1: "Selena"

I was born in 1991, so I was one of the many millennials who watched Jennifer Lopez literally become Selena, the Queen of Tejano music. I didn't know any better so I didn't realize there was a difference between the two until my mom pointed out that Jennifer Lopez was one of the 'Fly Girls' on In Living Color.

The point is, Selena opened my eyes to the world of Tejano music and how much Selena Quintanilla contributed to it. It's equally inspiring and heartbreaking, reducing me to puddles of tears every time I watch it.

#2: "The Wedding Planner"

I was obsessed with planning my imaginary wedding as a little girl — so much that one of Barbie dolls had to get married every week. It's one of the reasons why The Wedding Planner is cemented in my heart as one of the best Jennifer Lopez movies I've seen.

It follows an actual wedding planner (Jennifer Lopez) and the hilarious events that follow when she meets a man she's immediately attracted to...only to end up planning his wedding to someone else. It's a movie that asks viewers, "What's the most important thing when choosing to marry someone," leaving my heart full of butterflies every time.

It also features Matthew McConaughey with his perfectly tanned skin and that southern drawl I can't get enough of — big win in my book!

#3: "Maid in Manhattan"

Maid in Manhattan is another rom-com I can watch over and over. Jennifer Lopez plays a maid who catches the interest of senatorial candidate Christopher Marshall (Ralph Fiennes) as he mistakes her for a wealthy hotel guest. They're clearly interested in each other, but it initially feels like it's only because one of them is believed to be someone they're not.

It's probably not the best plot, but I loved the idea of how all our different paths can cross, no matter who we are, and eventually lead us to love.

#4: "Atlas"

This is one is the latest Jennifer Lopez movies I'm a fan of (thanks Netflix), and it's streaming right now!

Similar to how some people mistrust our growing reliance on A.I., Jennifer Lopez's character — Atlas Shepard — is revealed to have a deep-rooted aversion to them. It's only after she begins working with the very technology she disdains that viewers are able to learn the truth of what happened to her when she was a child.

I love that it shows what could possibly happen in the future and how all technology isn't horrific if used responsibly.

#5: "The Mother"

The Mother seriously gives me The Long Kiss Goodnight vibes, and I mean that in the best way possible. Jennifer Lopez's character finds herself working against the very men she helped broker a deal with. Realizing she's pregnant way too late, a terrible event eventually rips her daughter away so that her life can't be endangered. Although "The Mother" does get to see her daughter again, she's forced to come out of hiding to protect her.

It's an action-packed tear-jerker that'll make you glad your mom never had to deal with that!

#6: "Marry Me"

Jennifer Lopez plays a successful Latin celebrity who's known for her talent...and her many marriages that ended in divorce. Still, she refused to give up on love — and she even thought she found bliss with her fiancé Bastian. Unfortunately, she finds out he was unfaithful to her, and this prompts her to marry audience member Charlie Gilbert based on his "Marry Me" sign.

It was an impulsive decision that's clearly a ruse because she and Charlie don't really know each other, but they eventually begin to form a real bond. It ends on a 'happily ever after' note, so I think this makes it a cute rom-com that you and your besties can watch.

#7: "Second Act"

I personally love this movie because it shows how some people are passed up because they don't have certain credentials that look good at face-value. Though Jennifer Lopez's character Maya has gone above and beyond for the Value Shop store she works at, an executive tells her she can't be promoted due to her lack of a college degree.

Eventually her resume is doctored by her godson and she finds herself in a higher corporate role for a cosmetics brand. It's during this time that she meets the daughter she gave up for adoption, leading to a series of events of somewhat awkward events.

It's a cute movie, but it wasn't anything groundbreaking IMO.

#8: "This Is Me...Now: A Love Story"

To help promote her highly-anticipated album This Is Me...Now, Jennifer Lopez released a companion musical film via Amazon Prime. It tells the tale of two lovers who experience something similar to Romeo and Juliet, leaving the Artist (Jennifer Lopez) in a state of disarray.

Honestly, the concept was really good considering the fact so many of us find ourselves doing destructive things after our hearts have been broken. I just couldn't get into it the way I hoped to.

#9: "Hustlers"

Jennifer Lopez's portrayal of the determined and aggressive Ramona is unlike any other role I'd seen her take on. It's almost like she disappeared into a character who only character about making sure her pockets were lined.

Though she starts off being a mentor to another stripper (Destiny), she becomes too eager to commit crimes that'll support their desires to have a lavish lifestyle.

I didn't mind watching it, thanks to my newfound interest in P-Valley, but I haven't watched it since it came out — unlike some of her other movies at the top of this list!
