Jennifer Lopez will pull double duty on her upcoming NBC reality competition series “World of Dance,” serving as both executive producer and judge, Variety has learned.
“World of Dance” was greenlit this July with a 10-episode order, and when the series was picked up, Lopez was only attached in a producing capacity, though sources said an on-camera role was always a possibility.
