- Zeus says ‘yes’ to do the film because of the uniqueness of the film concept
- He also shared that he is ready to face possible criticisms for doing the role on the short film which is about extrajudicial killings
Zeus Collins, a member of the boy group Hashtag and an Ex PBB housemate, and well known in his excellence in dancing, will now be seen on the big screen as an actor.
“Magaling sumayaw,” most of the people will say if they heard the name Zeus Collins. But Zeus did not limit himself to things that he can learn and give to his audience.
He will play as a taxi driver in the upcoming Lights Camera Magic short film ‘Napaano ka Arna.” He also said this role was very challenging as it required him to deliver dance routines while delivering emotions through various acting scenes.
“Siguro ‘yung hindi masira ‘yung taxi na gagamitin. Kasi dapat dahan-dahan, smooth lang. Kasi may mga mga tumbling kasi eh. May mga stunts kaming gagawin na dapat nasa taas kami ng taxi pero ‘yung iba hindi namin ginawa dahil baka mayupi. Kaya ‘yun challange sa amin bigla kaming nagbago ng choreo,” he said this while facing challenges during the filming.
Zeus said ‘yes’ to do the film because of the uniqueness of the film concept.
“Nagustuhan ko rin ‘yung istorya kasi sinabi sakin ni Direk na, ‘yun nga, hindi siya ‘yung basta sayaw lang na movie. Talagang may kuwento siya kasi malalim dahil sa isang babae na nagawa niya lahat para sa nanay niya. Tapos kakaiba pa kasi sayaw. Hindi mo ginagamit ‘yung salita. Sa pamamagitan lang ng galaw lang ng katawan mo. Kaya ito sobrang bago ‘to para sa akin,” he said.
He also shared that he is ready to face possible criticisms for doing the role in the short film which is about extrajudicial killings.
“Ready naman ako kasi natural naman ‘yun na may magco-comment naman na mga tao. Siyempre kung gagawin mo nang maayos, isasapuso mo, maparating mo ‘yung mensahe ng gagawin mo. Talagang pagpupursigihin mo,” he said.
This is directed by Patricia Ann Rivera and with Zues in the movie is Pokwang. This will be out via Lights Camera Magic! website this coming March or April.
