Filmmaker Mikhail Red has offered fans a first glimpse of his upcoming horror film ‘Nokturno,’ which stars Nadine Lustre, Eula Valdez, Bea Binene, and Justin James Quilantang.
On Monday, Red shared a photo on his Facebook page featuring the four lead actors, all sporting serious expressions, in what appears to be a dark and eerie setting.
The caption simply stated, “NOKTURNO [film clapper emoji] soon.”
Viva Films, the production company behind the movie, also teased viewers, suggesting that they have “no idea what’s coming.”
They shared on their Facebook page, “FIRST LOOK at #Nokturno Starring 2022 MMFF Best Actress and Two-time FAMAS Best Actress Nadine Lustre, 38th Gawad Urian Best Actress Eula Valdez, Wilbert Ross, and Bea Binene. From 2022 MMFF Best Director, Mikhail Red. Coming soon.”
Reports about ‘Nokturno’ were initially confirmed by Mikhail Red in a Variety report in March, marking a reunion project with Nadine Lustre after their successful collaboration on the Metro Manila Film Festival (MMFF) 2022’s Best Picture winner.
The movie will be produced by Red’s production company, Evolve Studios, in partnership with Viva Films. Rae Red will bring the screenplay to life.
While specific details about the film’s plot have not been disclosed, it is known to center around a “mysterious ancient curse” that plagues an unfortunate family, while a young woman embarks on a quest to unravel its secrets.
