Jennifer Lopez is reportedly joining Antonio Banderas for the film version of the Chilean miner rescue.

The movie, titled "The 33" is based on the true story of miners who were rescued after being trapped underground for 69 days in 2010.

Antonio Banderas is slated to play the role of a miner nicknamed "Super Mario" who became the voice of the trapped men.

There is no word yet on what part Lopez will take on.

The miners, who set a world record for survival underground, were hoisted to the surface in a metal capsule in a rescue operation on October 12 and 13 of 2010.

The rescue was watched by hundreds of millions of people worldwide and triggered celebrations across Chile.
