On December 6, actress Nadine Lustre admitted that while doing her projects with Greed and Deleter, she missed acting.
At the media conference for Deleter, Lustre recounted when she realized that she missed acting.
“Very excited po, I mean medyo matagal-tagal din po akong hindi nakapanood ng sine. And na-miss ko din po talaga ‘yung acting. Actually, noong ginawa ko po ‘yung Greed, doon ko po na-realize na okay, na-miss ko pala talaga ‘yung pag-arte.”
She then confessed feeling excited about seeing herself in cinemas via the film, Deleter.
“And of course, excited ako na makita ulit ‘yung sarili ko sa big screen, kasi iba po talaga ‘yung feeling ng nakikita mo ‘yung sarili mo sa big screen. But ‘yun nga po, sobrang grateful po ako kasi ‘yung pagiging MMFF entry ng Deleter, biglaan, medyo biglaan po talaga. We didn’t expect it so noong sinabi po sa amin na kasama siya, talagang excited po kaming lahat.”
She also attested how much she loves the horror-thriller genre.
“Actually, ako po talaga, ‘yung favorite ko po na genre ng movie ay ‘yung horror and thriller. So noong unang prinesent po sa akin ni Direk ‘yung project, talagang na-excite ako. And it’s something that I’ve never done before. People know me, as [you know]–an actress who does romcom and drama films, so first time ko mag-horror, ‘yung full length horror film and I was just really excited.”
She then noted that despite her demanding role in the film, she enjoyed every moment.
“It was really, really exhausting when we we’re shooting it kasi nga po ‘yung kadalasan ‘yung ka-eksena ko po dito ay ‘yung monitor, ‘yung screen so ang daming kailangan mag-work sa akin. My imagination is also working of course, a lot on the Physical and the emotional as well, but sobrang na-enjoy ko po ‘yung shoot namin.”
Deleteralso stars McCoy De Leon, Louise De Los Reyes, and Jeffrey Hildago.
The Metro Manila Film Festival 2022 entry, directed by Mikhail Red and produced by Viva Films, will open on December 25, Christmas Day.
