Director: Dave Meyers
Music, memory, and myth blur together in This Is Me…Now, a 2024 visual album built around Jennifer Lopez's own story of heartbreak and self-reckoning.
What is This Is Me…Now about?
Rather than following a conventional plot, this hour-long project moves through a stylized, dreamlike world where songs double as scenes and emotional states take physical, symbolic form. It traces a version of Jennifer Lopez working through old wounds and repeating patterns in love, pushing toward a more grounded sense of self-worth on the other side. Fantasy sequences, therapy-session imagery, and lavish musical numbers are stitched together rather than told in a straight line, so the film asks to be read more like a concept record given visual shape than a documentary or biopic. Ben Affleck appears alongside her, and the supporting cast includes Fat Joe, Idaliz Christian, and Matthew Law. Dave Meyers, a director with a long history in music videos, brings that sensibility to nearly every frame.

Context & significance
This Is Me…Now is an American production from 2024, credited to the music genre and running 65 minutes. It arrived as a companion piece to Lopez's studio album of the same title, extending its songs into a continuous visual narrative rather than presenting a set of separate music videos. The project sits at the intersection of pop album promotion and personal essay filmmaking, a format that has become more common as artists use long-form video to frame a full album as a single unfolding story.
