Oscar-Worthy: In mid-September, Lopez's highly-anticipated movie, Hustlers, hit theaters, raking in an estimated $32.2 million domestically in its first box office weekend. Lopez, who starred in the film, was also a producer on the hit movie, which centers on a group of strip club employees who work together to hustle their high-profile clients.

In addition to rave reviews from audiences, Hustlers is certified fresh with 88% on Rotten Tomatoes. There's also buzz about a possible Oscar nomination in store for Lopez, thanks to her incredible performance in the film. If she were to receive a nod, the Oscars are set for Feb. 9, one week after the Super Bowl!

Wedding Bells: While everything is going very well in her professional life, things are also pretty great for Lopez on the personal side too. Back in March, the "Dance Again" artist got engaged to beau Alex Rodriugez. A few months later, Lopez opened up about the couple's wedding plans in a behind-the-scenes YouTube video.

When asked when she'll tie the knot with Rodriguez, Lopez said, "Soon. Soon. Not soon-soon, but next year."

"I'd like a big wedding and I'd like to get married in a church this time," she continued. "I've never been married in a church and I've been married three times, and once was nine months and once was 11 months, so I don't really count those."

Lopez noted that she was married to Marc Anthony, with who she shares twins Max and Emme, for 10 years.

In early September, Rodriguez dished about a possible wedding location, revealing on Strahan, Sara and Keke, "It's gonna be a long flight."

We can't wait to see what else 2020 has in store for J.Lo!
