INTERVIEW WITH VAMPIRE RICHARD: It didn’t take much convincing before Richard Gutierrez said yes to a vampire role.
Looking trim and fit and young looking at 33, the once inactive actor says he has always been a fan of vampire movies and one of his dreams is to play one in either a TV or movie project.
The right role came along by way of La Luna Sangre, teleserye that marks Richard’s official entry into ABS-CBN.
The day the former GMA actor graced his first press conference as a Kapamilya, he earlier signed an exclusive contract with the network together with his mother and manager, Annabelle Rama.
Richard said his favorite vampire movie is Interview with The Vampire.
