Directed by Bill Condon, 2025, USA, Rated R, 132 minutes

Based on the Tony Award‑winning Broadway musical (and the novel by Manuel Puig), this visually sumptuous musical drama stars Jennifer Lopez as Ingrid Luna/Spider Woman, Diego Luna as Valentín (a political prisoner), and Tonatiuh as Molina (a queer window dresser). Set inside an Argentine prison in the 1980s under a military junta, the two cell‑mates form a daring bond, using cinematic fantasy as resistance and survival. The adaptation premiered at the Sundance Film Festival with a standing ovation. “The feature is both a dazzling old‑style musical and a raw and moving depiction of a queer romance and gender‑fluidity between two Latino men.” — Harper’s Bazaar
