Sexy star AJ Raval on Monday, April 18, turned down Scorpio Nights 3 because of her plans and its script.
She was supposed to be part of the cast in the third installment of Peque Gallaga’s classic movie Scorpio Nights but was replaced by Christine Bermas.
In the virtual media conference for her latest sexy film Kaliwaan, Raval revealed that the reason was her plan to return to school and focus on herself.
“Ang plan ko po is mag-enroll po ako this year. So parang magle-lay down po muna ako sa pagpapa-sexy, mag-aaral din muna po ako. Grateful din po ako na para sa akin ang Scorpio Nights. Kasi nagii-start pa lang po ako sa Viva, yun na rin po yung pinag-uusapan, Scorpio Nights; Pornstar palang po, Scorpio Nights na po,” she explained.
She added, “Gusto ko rin pong magpaganda ng katawan. Gusto ko pong mag-workout, magkaroon ng goals sa pagpapaganda ng katawan. Para mas lalo akong maging confident sa pagpapa-sexy.”
The missed opportunity saddened the sexy star. However, there were also complications with the film’s script. Raval admitted it was time for her to start veering away from doing sexy roles.
“Napag-usapan na din naman namin po ito ng manager ko, nang Viva. Gusto ko po talagang mag-action. No problem po sa akin mag-sexy. Magse-sexy at magse-sexy ako pero gusto ko pong makuha yung dream ko na mag-action.”
She stressed that she will still do sexy films with “meaning.”
“Siguro po, gusto ko po yung kapag nagpa-sexy ako ngayon, gusto ko yung meaningful. Depende po sa story, sa twist ng story, at yung meaningful talaga. Kumbaga po kung magpapa-sexy po ako, yung may katuturan po. HInding-hindi ko po bibitawan ang pagpapa-sexy. Masaya po ako at doon ako nakilala’t minahal ng mga tao,” stated the sexy star.
In the meantime, Raval confirmed that Kaliwaan would not be her last sexy film.
The movie also stars 19th Asian Film Festival “Best Actor” Vince Rillon and newbie Denise Esteban. It includes seasoned actor Mark Anthony Fernandez, Felix Artadi Rocco, and young artist Juami Gutierrez.
Kaliwaan is directed by Daniel Palacio and will be available for streaming via Vivamax on April 29.
