'Second Act' director Peter Segal is all for Jennifer Lopez's 'passion' to get Milo Ventimiglia play her love interest in the film
‘This is Us’ continues to be one of the most popular shows on TV currently and with plenty of reason – one of them being Milo Ventimiglia’s flawless portrayal of the late great Jack Pearson. Having been best known for his role as the bad boy Jess Mariano in ‘Gilmore Girls’ for so long, it has been great to see a different side to Milo as the family man with a heart of gold, and as it turns out, even Hollywood’s elites have been paying attention, which has led him to landing a role in one of the most anticipated romcoms this year - ‘Second Act’.
As both Milo and Jennifer Lopez confirmed during their separate interviews with Jimmy Fallon on ‘The Tonight Show,’ JLo personally requested for Milo to play her love interest. JLo, who is making her big screen comeback with the movie, even admitted to Jimmy that she thinks Milo is a total heartthrob. Now, the film's director Peter Segal has also spoken to Meaww about his leading lady’s “passion” about getting Milo on board.
