Natakot din sa kalalabasan ng test results: LUIS, na-clear na sa sakit na cancer

Posted on: May 7th, 2024 by @peoplesbalita No Comments

NA-CLEAR na sa sakit na cancer si Luis Manzano.

 

 

 

Pagkatapos na napansin ng hairstylist ni Luis na may bukol ito sa ulo, agad na nagpakonsulta at sumailalim sa biopsy ang TV host.

 

 

 

“May kailangan i-biopsy dito sa taas ng ulo ko. Parang ang biopsy kung ‘di ako nagkakamali ay i-check kung cancerous or not or kung malignant or benign,” ayon kay Luis sa kanyang latest vlog.

 

 

 

Inamin din ni Luis na medyo natakot siya sa kalalabasan ng test results.

 

 

 

“Do I feel okay? Yes. Apat na doktor na ang nagsabi na malabo-labo talaga na it’s cancerous or kung ano man may konting kaba? Siyempre kasi i-stitch yan e, isasama ko kayo sa procedure parang tatanggalan ng sample tapos 2-3 stitches so papanoorin ko kayo.

 

 

 

“But para sa akin ang main goal ko is to create awareness kasi napaka rami siyempre ‘yung mga binabantayan na mga nunal growth, kita yan sa mga katawan,” paliwanag pa niya.

 

 

 

Ang pinakamahirap daw ay yung waiting period para sa mga test results.

 

 

 

“Ito na ‘yung pinaka-mahirap sa lahat ng mga test, minsan ‘yung procedure itself hassle kung hassle given pero ang pinaka mabigat diyan ay ang pag-aantay ng results kasi malalaman to kung benign ba to or malignant I think five to seven days kapag binigay na ‘yung sample mas hassle ‘yun mas hassle ‘yung ganung stress na ‘yun in fact, ‘yung nakita kanina ‘yung pinost ko kanina sabi ‘yung mga buhok na andon is already a good sign in itself pero ipapadala pa rin to be sure so hoping and praying.”

Malaki ang utang na loob niya kina Abby: LEANDRO, inalala ang ginawang pagti-trip sa kanya ni ROSANNA

Posted on: May 7th, 2024 by @peoplesbalita No Comments

INALALA ng dating sexy actor na si Leandro Baldemor na pinagtripan siya ni Rosanna Roces sa photo shoot ng pelikula nilang “Patikim Ng Pinya” na ipinalabas noong 1996.

 

 

 

Nakachikahan namin si Leandro sa bahay niya sa Paete, Laguna at sa kanyang gallery noong Biyernes, May 3.

 

 

 

Kuwento actor tungkol samga eksena nila ni Osang, “Kung makikita n’yo yung unang pictorial namin, parang gulat ako!

 

 

 

“Nakaganu’n ako (dilat na dilat), naka-briefs ako. Paano naman itong si Osang, e, di nakaibabaw sa akin si Osang. Kinaskas naman nang kinaskas!”

 

 

Dagdag pa niya, “Hindi ko sinabing inintensyon niya. Kasi hindi ko alam kung ano ba yung tama. Kasi hindi ko alam kung talagang lumapat or whatever. Basta’t ang naramdaman ko, iba! Siyempre first time. Aba, p*t@ng ina! Ha-hahaha!”

 

 

 

“Yung 18 years old ako noon, siyempre mapusok pa ako. Saka hindi ko alam…e, ano pa naman, hindi ko makakalimutan yung panty ni Osang du’n, yung lace. Kaya mababaliw ka talaga kay Osang!” sabi pa niya.

 

 

 

Inamin ni Leandro nabaliw-baliw din siya noon kay Osang.

 

 

 

“Lahat naman! Lahat naman, oo, lahat. Sobra, sobra!”

 

 

 

Pero paglilinaw niya, walang nangyari sa kanila noong ginagawa ang kanilang movie?

 

 

 

“Wala, wala. Wala, hindi ko natikman ang pinya! Ha-hahahaha!”

 

 

 

“Actually, para niya akong kapatid na bata,” dagdag pa ni Leandro.

 

 

 

Nabanggit din niya ang dating leading lady na si Abby Viduya, na nakasama naman niya sa launching movie nitong “Sariwa” (1996) bilang si Priscilla Almeda.

 

 

 

Naging malapit na kaibigan din daw niya ang aktres.

 

 

 

“Parehas din lang naman. Kaso si Osang, nandu’n yung pagka-ate, e. Na ganito, ganito. Guide, guide, guide. Guide ka, kasi batang-bata pa ako noon.

 

 

 

“So, kaya nga nu’ng natapos ang kontrata niya sa Seiko, kinuha niya kaagad ako,” kuwento pa ng aktor na ang tinutukoy ay ang pelikulang “Katawan” ng Viva Films na ipinalabas noong 1999.

 

 

 

Noong natapos daw ang kontrata nila ni Osang sa Seiko ay nakagawa na sila ng mga pelikula sa iba’t ibang production company.

 

 

 

“Du’n sa Christopher de Leon movie niya, Katawan. Kinuha niya agad ako, Viva. Hindi niya ako nalilimutan talaga,” sey pa ni Leandro.

 

 

 

“Kaya sabi ko everytime na nai-interview ako, malaki ang utang na loob ko kay Osang, kay Abby. Lalo kay Abby, malaki ang utang na loob ko. Kasi yung Sariwa, si Abby ang pumili na ako ang magiging leading man niya. On the spot.

 

 

 

“Kaya sinabi ni Boss Robbie (Tan ng Seiko Films), ‘O, Priscilla, ha? Si Jeff (Jeffrey Baldemor ang tunay na pangalan ni Leandro) ba, ayos ba sa yo?’

 

 

 

“‘Opo, gusto ko po siyang maging leading man sa aking launching movie, Sariwa,’”

 

 

 

Noong 2022, muling nagkasama sina Lendro at Abby, ang GMA primetime series na “Lolong” na pinagbidahan ni Ruru Madrid.

 

 

 

Ipinagmalaki naman ni Leandro na ang isa sa mga obra niya bilang sculptor ay inspired ng pagsasama nila ni Osang sa pelikula.

 

 

 

Na-immortalize nga ng aktor ang loveteam nila ni Osang sa pamamagitan ng isang artwork na inukit niya sa kahoy at naka-display ngayon sa kanyang bahay sa Laguna.

 

 

 

Active pa rin naman si Leandro sa showbiz pero ang talagang kinakarir niya ngayon ay ang pag-ukit at ilan sa obra ay ang iba’t ibang imahen ni Hesukristo, Mama Mary at mga santo, action figures at marami pang iba.

 

 

 

Kaya naman si Leandro rin ang napili ng Society of Philippine Entertainment Editors (SPEEd) na gumawa ng bagong tropeo ng The EDDYS.

 

 

 

Gaganapin sa July 7, 2024 ang ika-7 edisyon ng The EDDYS kaya abangan ang unveiling ng bagong trophy na maiuuwi ng mga winners at special awardees.

“Tuloy ito. Ngayon naman, ‘yung The Manila Film Festival (TMFF) na noong nakaraang taon, ibinalik. Tapos ngayon, gagawin uli,” dagdag pa niya.

 

Kung last year ay full length ang entries, na gawa ng mga estudyante. This time, short films naman daw.

 

“Eight schools pa rin ang gagawa ng 20 minutes na entries. Tapos meron tayong apat na mga professional na director na gagawa rin ng 20 minutes na films,” sabi pa ni Vice Mayor Yul.

 

Pinag-uusapan na rin daw nila ang tax exemptions at permit sa mga kalahok na pelikula.

 

Ang Manila Film Festival ay ipinagdiwang tuwing Hunyo kasabay sa Araw ng Maynila.

 

Matandaang talumpung taon na ang nakararaan nung nangyari ang MFF scam, huh!

STUNTS 101: GET TO KNOW THE STUNTS AND THE AWESOME PEOPLE BEHIND THEM IN “THE FALL GUY”

Posted on: May 7th, 2024 by @peoplesbalita No Comments

In every action film, the pulse-pounding sequences are a testament to the dedication and talent of the stunt team.

 

Watch the new featurette “The Fall Guy | A Look Inside”

 

For “The Fall Guy,” it was pivotal for director David Leitch (who used to be a stunt performer himself) and producer Kelly McCormick to assemble a core group of skilled individuals to meet the unique challenges posed by the film. From intense fights to intricate rigging, daring high falls to water and fire stunts, the film spans the entire spectrum of stunt disciplines. To ensure excellence in each area, the filmmakers enlisted the best in the business, including Chris O’Hara, who, like Leitch, is a well-known figure in the stunt industry. To give proper credit to O’Hara’s invaluable contribution to the film, O’Hara, usually given the credit of stunt coordinator, received the industry’s first-ever film credit of “Stunt Designer.”

 

The new credit accurately reflects the high-level artistic contribution of world-class stunt coordinators like O’Hara. These are artists who do more than coordinate the logistics of stunts; they design and create them.

 

Another member of the stunt team is part-Filipino fight coordinator Jojo Eusebio, whose impressive credits include “John Wick” and “Black Panther.” “I’ve always looked up to Dave Leitch and Chris O’Hara as mentors, having seen them evolve from stunt performers to second unit directors and now Dave directing major film productions,” Eusebio says. “Working on this film for the last portion of its production was an absolute honor. Being part of projects with talented crews and leaving a lasting legacy is what matters most. As long as you’re contributing to something exceptional, it’s all worth it.”

 

 

The stunts:

The Cannon Roll

Stunt double Logan Holladay broke the Guinness World Record for cannon rolls in a car with eight and a half rolls, achieving the groundbreaking feat on the beach, which was notably on flat ground. This achievement surpassed the previous record held by stuntman Adam Kirley, who achieved seven cannon rolls during the filming of Casino Royale in 2006.

 

Operating at a speed of 80mph with the cannon packing 900 psi, the filmmakers opted for a Jeep Grand Cherokee due to its equal width and height, providing a cylindrical shape ideal for rolling. Crews worked tirelessly for hours compacting the sand to get it as firm as possible to achieve the speeds required for the stunt.

 

The Alma/Colt Chase Sequence

The Alma/Colt chase sequence involved teamwork and innovation, featuring a thrilling scene on the iconic Sydney Harbour Bridge. While a scene like this would normally be done with blue screen, the team decided to film the scene entirely practically. Ryan Gosling’s direct involvement added authenticity to the action, and the team opted for in-camera shots with a garbage truck dragging Gosling on a spinning bin through the streets of Sydney.

 

Fifty stunt drivers were used for this scene, so ensuring the safety of everyone involved while maintaining precision in resetting to the starting point was crucial.

 

The 225-Foot Car Jump

One of the most jaw-dropping moments in “The Fall Guy” involves a 225-plus-foot car jump. The jump was performed by seasoned stunt driver Logan Holladay in a specially designed vehicle, crafted for practical, in-camera authenticity that could handle such an extreme leap. This extraordinary stunt stands as a testament to the film’s commitment to delivering genuine, practical stunts that defy the norms of modern CGI-dominated filmmaking.

 

At the apex of the jump, the truck was close to 80 feet in the air. The vehicle reached a speed of 72 mph during the jump.

 

The Boat Jump

The boat achieved an impressive 80-foot jump. The ramp used for the jump measured approximately 4 feet high and 24 feet long.

 

Ryan Gosling obtained his boating license in New South Wales to ensure readiness for any unforeseen needs during filming.

 

The High Fall From Helicopter

The high-fall stunt in “The Fall Guy” was executed by stunt performer Troy Brown, carrying on the legacy of his father, Bob Brown, a high-fall expert. Troy Brown broke his own personal record for the longest high fall, achieving an astounding 150 feet during the filming of this movie.

 

Acquiring airbags rated for such heights is rare, but essential for safety. The production team procured this specific bag for the monumental high fall scene in “The Fall Guy.” The dimensions of the bag were 25 feet by 50 feet.

 

Find out why everyone’s falling in love with “The Fall Guy,” now showing in Philippine cinemas. #TheFallGuyMoviePH
