Dahil punum-puno ang schedule this year: BEA, piniling mag-backout na lang sa first movie nila ni ALDEN

NAKALULUNGKOT dahil hindi na matutuloy ang pagtatambal nina Bea Alonzo at Alden Richards sa ‘A Special Memory’.

Pinili nga ng aktres na mag-backout na lang sa dapat sana ay una nilang pagtatambal sa pelikula ni Alden Richards dahil punum-puno ang schedule niya this year.

Sa official statement mula sa management ni Bea…

“In the spirit of fairness, we deemed it appropriate to advise the producers of “Special Memory,” a movie adaptation of “A Moment to Remember,” that Ms. Bea Alonzo had to respectfully beg off from this movie project due to her full schedule this year. Ms. Bea Alonzo has contractual obligations with GMA Network to fulfill, and that shall remain as our top priority.

“She is currently taping LOVE BEFORE SUNRISE (“LBS”) with Mr. Dennis Trillo. In addition, she will be participating in GMA 7’s still to be announced new reality show within the same timeframe as the LBS taping. We have also been advised of her next teleserye scheduled to commence in the last quarter of 2023.

“In between those TV projects, we shall be announcing two motion picture projects slated to commence Principal Photography this year. These two movie projects have been disclosed as early as 2021, to both GMA Network and the Special Memory producers from the very start of scheduling discussion in 2021.

“And understandably, due to the pandemic, certain schedules had to be cancelled and postponed. Production team have been made aware that any postponement on agreed upon schedules, would mean they are giving up that reserved window in Bea’s calendar and will have to go to the end of the line because there were other producers waiting for their turn in 2022 and 2023.

“We would like to take this opportunity to express our sincerest gratitude to Ms. Annette Gozon-Valdez, Mr. Tony Tuviera, and Boss Vic del Rosario for always embracing us with their kindest understanding. We encourage everyone to join us in wishing the entire Special Memory Production Team, all the best! Thank you!”

INI-REPORT ng “Chika Minute” ng “24 Oras,” ang naiibang karanasan nina Bianca Umali at Ruru Madrid habang nagsu-shoot sila ng ilang eksena sa Paris para sa GMA Primetime series nilang “The Write One.”

Pinanood kasi sila ng mga turista habang nagsu-shoot at marami sa kanila can’t help but express their admiration sa ginawa nilang eksena. Isa nga raw long-time couple from Minnesota, USA, ang nag-comment at pinalakpakan sila after the take, nang malamang ang title ng series ay “The Write One,” nag-comment sila kay Ruru na, “I think you found her.” At sinagot naman sila ni Ruru ng “Yeah, I found her.”

Kahit ang ilang tourists daw ay pumalakpak din after the scenes, kahit hindi nila naiintindihan ang Tagalog dialogue, dahil they felt daw the actors’ emotions.

Ang “The Write One” ay napapanood every night, 9:35 pm sa GMA-7, I Heart Movie at Pinoy Hits. May live streaming din ito sa Viu from Saturdays to Tuesdays.

NAGHAHANDA na ang mahusay na writer ng mga award-winning teleseryes sa GMA Network na si Suzette S. Doctolero para sa upcoming project niyang may tentative title na “Pulang Araw.” Kaya nag-post siya sa kanyang Twitter account ng: “Hello. May lolo at lola ba kayo, o kakilala, kaibigan, kaanak, na nakapagtrabaho, manggagawa o artist/performere sa mga Bodavil o Vaudeville noong araw? Message me. Salamat!”

Ang bagong serye na susulatin ni Suzette ay isa pang project na pagtatambalan nina Barbie Forteza at David Licauco para sa GMA Network, habang nagsu-shoot pa sila ng first movie nila together, ang romantic-comedy movie na “That Kind of Love,” na magsu-shoot din sila ng ilang eksena sa ibang bansa.
