Eugene Domingo was caught by surprise after learning that Queen of Talk Kris Aquino had backed out of their first film project together.
Reports said Domingo, Kim Chiu, Gerald Anderson and Aquino were supposed to be part of an upcoming Star Cinema film with a working title “Ikaw Na Nga.”
Aquino, however, backed out of the project to spend more time with her mother, former president Corazon Aquino, who is battling Stage 4 colon cancer.
“Sayang. Maybe, next film na lang kami magkaka-trabaho. Baka hindi sa film na ito,” Domingo told abs-cbnNEWS.com
She added: “Nalulungkot ako sa part na magpa-pasko pa at mayroon silang ganoon. At ito nga hindi niya nagawa iyong dapat sanang project niya.”
Kimmy Dora
Meanwhile, Domingo, , who usually plays supporting roles, is excited with her upcoming launching film “Kimmy Dora.” She said she treats every shooting day as a big challenge especially since she is portraying two characters in the film.
“Hindi siya madali. Ika nga sa bawat oportunidad ay may responsibilidad,” Domingo said.
The cast and the crew are still in the process of completing the film. She said she and the rest of the cast are doing their best to make it worth watching.
“Nakakapagod pero I get my strength from the people who trust na magagawa ito ng maganda,” she said.
Considered to be one of the best comediennes in local show business, Domingo confessed that she is still having a hard time doing comedy scenes.
“Siyempre, mahirap pa din kasi iba ang sitwasyon. Tapos may mga pagkakataon pa na ang ka-acting mo ay hayop. So, iyong challenge everyday pataas ng pataas,” she said.
Domingo described “Kimmy Dora” as the hardest film she has ever done.
Written by Chris Martinez and under the direction of Bb. Joyce Bernal, “Kimmy Dora” is the maiden project of Piolo Pascual’s Spring Films.
Other cast members of “Kimmy Dora” are Dingdong Dantes, Miriam Quiambao, Baron Geisler, Mark Bautista, and Paolo Contis, with special participation of Gabby Eigenmann, Marvin Agustin, Regine Velasquez, Erik Santos and Vhong Navarro.
