Jennifer Lopez has left fans stunned after a steamy scene with Brett Goldstein in her new Netflix movie was revealed.
The upcoming rom-com is titled Office Romance, and sees the 56-year-old starring as powerful airline CEO Jackie Cruz, while Ted Lasso star Goldstein plays Daniel Branchflower, the company’s new lawyer who quickly finds himself falling for his boss.
But while sparks fly on-screen, rumors have been growing that the pair may have become just as close off-camera, too.
The trailer teases plenty of raunchy scenes between the duo, including a passionate encounter in a lift and a secret getaway to the Dominican Republic.
At one point in the clip, Lopez's character can be heard warning: "If we got caught, it could destroy everything I’ve built."
The movie arrives as speculation continues to swirl around Lopez and Goldstein’s relationship behind the scenes.
According to The Sun, one movie source claimed: "It was an open secret during filming about Brett and J-Lo – they got on like a house on fire from the start, and the chemistry was electric, which viewers will see.
"They were very touchy, feely, and always laughing, and everyone suspected they were hooking up," they added.
The insider added that the role may have been especially meaningful for Goldstein, 44, who reportedly wrote the part specifically with Lopez in mind after previously admitting she was his celebrity crush.
"We started asking ourselves who the best rom-com star is, and without hesitation, we both said JLo. And within the space of a long train journey, we had the whole idea for the film," he told PEOPLE.
"It's easy to write a rom-com when you have JLo in mind. She's the best at this stuff. We just wanted to write something funny and smart enough to be worthy of her saying yes," he added.
More fuel was added to the speculation after the duo was recently spotted together outside Barlume in New York’s Flatiron district.
A Page Six source claimed the co-stars appeared to have plenty of "chemistry" during the outing and described their interactions as "friendly" throughout the evening.
"When Brett walked out of the restaurant, he seemingly didn’t know where he was going, but one of the managers sent him into J.Lo’s car and they left together," the source alleged.
A second source later claimed the duo had actually been filming a segment for the Overheard Happy Hour podcast before the restaurant opened, alongside several Netflix staffers.
For the outing, Goldstein donned a grey collared shirt while Lopez wore a cream coat, matching heels, and oversized sunglasses.
Office Romance is set to arrive on Netflix next month.
