KAPAMILYA star Bea Alonzo has said that she is excited to team-up with movie icon Charo Santos-Concio in an upcoming horror movie.
“Syempre pinapanood mo ‘yung mga pelikula nya. Sobrang taas ‘yung tingin ko kay Ma’am Charo,” said Bea, when asked if she was nervous about working with Charo, in an interview on “Tonight With Boy Abunda” on ABS CBN.
Charo replied: “I’m just as scared. Bea is such a competent actress. There’s nothing to be scared of. Pareho lang ang nerbyos natin.”
The shooting of the movie entitled “Eerie” will begin in March 2018.
On Instagram, Bea said: “This afternoon, we had a story conference for our new movie ‘EERIE’ which is going to be directed by Mikhail Red. This is going to be my FIRST horror movie and what a great honor to be doing it with THE Charo Santos. She has not done a horror movie since ‘ITIM’ back in the late 70’s.. I can’t even begin to tell you how overwhelming this is. All the good opportunities, the people i have been dreaming to be working with, the concepts i have been dying to be working on.. all coming together at the same time. I am excited for this journey. 2018 might just be my favorite year.”
Charo last last seen in the critically-acclaimed movie Lav Diaz movie “Ang Babaeng Humayo” in which she was nominated for best actress in several local and international award-giving bodies.
Bea has just wrapped up the Kapamilya primetime teleserye “A Love to Last” and the film “How To Be Yours” with Gerald Anderson in 2016.
Charo wrote on IG: “I did ITIM in 1976, I was 20 years old then. After almost 4 decades, I’m doing another horror film, and guess what? my director, @red_mikhail, is 26 years old, but one of the most promising young directors now!
And of course, who wouldn’t be thrilled to work with @beaalonzo, one of the most competent actresses of her generation. Hope you will all be as excited as I am.”
