Jennifer Lopez keeps Boston flick on down-Lo

Is J. Lo a no-go for Boston?

There’s still no word on when Yari Film Group’s romantic comedy “The Governess,” starring Jennifer Lopez, is slated to start filming in the Hub. But it doesn’t appear it’s anytime soon.

State film cheese Nick Paleologos told the Track he hasn’t heard a peep from production peeps about the flick’s shooting schedule.

When the project was announced last summer, Yari, which produced made-in-Mass. movies “The Lonely Maiden” and “What Doesn’t Kill You,” had expected to start shooting here in the fall.

But since the announcement in the Hollywood trades, there’s been little to report about the comedy - other than it stars J. Lo as a bank-robbing pro who, in order to make her big score, poses as a nanny for three rich brats who live with their widowed father. No other cast has been announced.

And during the months-long radio silence on “The Governess,” Lopez has signed on to star in CBS Films’ “Plan B,” a funny flick about an aging single gal who turns to artificial insemination only to meet her Prince Charming the same day the stick turns blue. The flick, written by “Will and Grace” scribe Kate Angelo, has a start date of April or May, but a director has yet to sign on.

Also mucking up the Mass. movie is the fact that Yari Film Group’s distribution arm - the one that releases the movies - was forced into Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in recent weeks. Producer-slash-financier Bob Yari claims the move, caused by a $6 million wipe-out of its payroll account, doesn’t affect its production company. But Hollywood insiders told us they find that hard to believe - especially in this economy.

As always, do stay tuned.
