Filmmaker Rechie Del Carmen Builds Promising "BATANG PACO" Cast

Looks like there exists a movement to make an action comedy flick called "Batang Paco". Direk Rechie Del Carmen has confirmed they are already building an ensemble cast for it. Known for character driven films, she wants to make this intricately done by choosing apt ones for roles, because this isn't just going to be action and comedy, but will also contain family drama which Producer Ana Abiera Del Moral says Direk Rechie understands, and needs to have meaningful emotional core, so they could breathe new life to these characters once the film starts rolling. 

They also divulged the appearance of Chichi Rita, who's wit and charm will rival lead actors Empoy Marquez and Ms. Aiai Delas Alas comedic powers, it's going to be more fun than usual. The cast also includes Mon Confiado, Ynez Veneracion, Richard Quan, Alma Concepcion, Lara Morena, Natasha Ledesma, Gerard Acao, Kookoo Gonzales, Josh Ivan Morales, Kim Rodriguez, Jovi Vargas and Quentin Molo among others. It's going to be a crazy time and very Manila, written by one of the most successful writers in cinema, Ms. Gina Marissa Tagasa. This will be under MiVida Productions Inc., and "Batang Paco" will hit theaters on February 18th, stay tuned for that!

PBB Celebrity Collab Edition 2.0 Exciting Last Few Weeks!

 

The current Pinoy Big Brother Celebrity Collab Edition 2.0 is almost ending, and steadily going to its finale... the Kapuso Stars nominated to leave the famous house include Sofia Pablo, Heath Jornales and Caprice Cayetano. On the Kapamilya side, they've got Carmelle, Eliza and Joaquin who's all going to be at the eviction night. This is a nail biter because there are only 10 guys and gals left and it'll be a crucial week to get those votes. 

Fans say Caprice is authentic, calm, and gives genuine care for other housemates. Heath on the other hand is on his 4th time being nominated, but fans say they will never give up saving him inside the house. Sofia on the other hand is getting feedback that labels thrown at her are not true, and they're seeing it the more time she stays in the Big Brother House. She has helped a lot in chores and might be her ace. 

Carmelle on the other hand is quiet but fans say people feel her efforts in tasks. Eliza is a very doting daughter, very kind and caring according to them. Joaquin has played this with strategy, and consistently has done tasks quite well. They also say he has love and empathy for other housemates. Will this make them stay in the house?

Make sure you watch the show on GMA and ABSCBN assets because you shouldn't miss the last few week before the finale! Meanwhile follow Sparkle's FB page for updates of those who have already gone out and are having the time of their life, as they've got lots of opportunities after the show!
