In celebration of its 20th anniversary, Star Cinema continues its two-decade tradition of sharing stories of pure laughter and entertainment to the Filipino audience by teaming up with co-producers Reality Entertainment and O & Co. Picture Factory to produce a world-class Onat Diaz masterpiece.
“Masayang-masaya kami ni Marian na part kami ng 20th anniversary celebration ng Star Cinema. Happy din ako dahil nakasama for the first time ang isa sa mga reyna ng GMA,” said AiAi. “Sa totoo lang, isa ito sa pinakamahirap na pelikulang ginawa ko–acting-wise and action-wise. Nag-training din kasi kami dito for martial arts kaya mahirap. Pero sa ganda ng movie, sulit ‘yung hirap. Fulfilled na fulfilled ako.”
Like AiAi, Marian takes pride in being part of “Kung Fu Divas.” In fact, she applauded upon learning about their milestone movie. “Happy ako na nagkakaroon ng ganitong pagkakaisa para sa isang pelikula at kabilang ako doon sa moment na ‘yun,” Marian expressed. “Napaka-memorable po nito sa akin dahil ang daming bago sa akin dito. Bukod sa unang pagsasama po namin ito ni Ate AiAi, first time ko rin pong nakatrabaho si Direk Onat, first time kong magkaroon ng comedy-action na pelikula, at syempre first movie ko po ito from Star Cinema.”
Aside from their newfound friendship, “Kung Fu Divas” was close to the heart of AiAi and Marian because of its top caliber concept and execution.
“Dahil sa movie na ito, mare-realize ng viewers na napaka-talented ng mga Pinoy at kaya nating gumawa ng pang-Hollywood na materyal,” AiAi said. “Marami na akong comedy films na nagawa pero ibang klase ang katatawanan dito, hindi mo mae-explain. Kailangan talaga siyang panoorin.”
“Bumilib talaga ako sa sa special effects ng movie. First time kong makagawa ng isang pelikula na halos lahat ng mga eksena ay nasa chroma,” added Marian. “Pero siyempre hindi lang sila maaaliw sa movie, madami rin silang matututunan lalo na tungkol sa pag-ibig at pamilya.”
“Kung Fu Divas” is a story about two bitter rivals in “Hiyas ng Dalampasigan” beauty pageant namely Charlotte (AiAi) and Samantha (Marian), who will be forced to become allies after an unexpected turn of events that put the lives of many in danger.
Can you set aside rivalry and sacrifice your own life for ‘world peace?’
Joining AiAi and Marian in “Kung Fu Divas” are Roderick Paulate, Edward Mendez, Bianca Manalo, Precious Lara Quigaman, Nova Villa and Gloria Diaz.
Don’t miss the world-class special effects, lessons, and the new flavor of comedy from the fresh dynamic duo of AiAi and Marian in the epic comedy-adventure film “Kung Fu Divas” showing on cinemas all over the country on October 2, 2013.
