Kiss of the Spider Woman
U.S. Theatrical Releases | Oct 10, 2025
Dreamgirls and Beauty and the Beast director Bill Condon returns to the movie musical the Technicolor-hued fantasy Kiss of the Spider Woman. Valentín (Diego Luna), a political prisoner, shares a cell with Molina (Tonatiuh), a window dresser convicted of public indecency. The two form an unlikely bond as Molina recounts the plot of a Hollywood musical starring his favorite silver screen diva, Ingrid Luna (Jennifer Lopez).
Bill Condon’s adaptation is based on the acclaimed 1976 novel Kiss of the Spider Woman by Argentinian writer Manuel Puig and the Tony Award-winning Broadway musical of the same name by the multiple Tony Award-winning playwright Terrence McNally (Master Class, Ragtime) and composer/lyricist team John Kander and Fred Ebb (Cabaret, Chicago). Written for the screen and directed by Bill Condon, Kiss of the Spider Woman stars Emmy Award nominee Diego Luna (Andor, Y tu mamá también), Tonatiuh (Carry On, Promised Land), and Emmy, Grammy and Golden Globes Award-nominated actress and singer Jennifer Lopez (Hustlers, Out of Sight), along with Bruno Bichir, Josefina Scaglione and Aline Mayagoitia.
