Jennifer Lopez’s production company is named Nuyorican Productions, and they have just signed a multi-year first-look deal with streaming giant, Netflix.

The production company will be creating films, TV series, and unscripted content for Netflix.

Nuyorican Productions wants to focus on films and projects that support female writers, filmmakers, and actors.

So far we know that Lopez would be starring in two upcoming films for Netflix, an adaptation of the eponymous novel “The Cipher” and a feature called “The Mother,” set to be directed by Niki Caro of “Mulan.”

“The Cipher” tells the story of an FBI special agent and a serial killer with a penchant for coded online riddles, while “The Mother” is about a female assassin and her daughter.

From Variety.com:

“I am excited to announce my new partnership with Netflix. Elaine, Benny and I believe there is no better home for us than a forward-leaning content creation company that seeks to defy conventional wisdom and directly market to the millions across the globe who no longer view art and entertainment with the kind of boundaries and limitations of the past,” Lopez said. “We at Nuyorican Productions are thrilled to find like-minded partners in Ted Sarandos, Scott Stuber, Bela Bajaria and the whole team and look forward to getting to work right away.”
