SA susunod na buwan na ang inaabangang Hollywood film na tampok ang aktres na si Liza Soberano!
Pero marami ang curious, paano nga ba nakuha ni Liza ang kanyang supporting role sa “Lisa Frankenstein?”
Ayon sa direktor ng pelikula na si Zelda Williams, nilapitan niya mismo ang aktres upang kumbinsihing mag-audition.
Para sa kanya, swak kay Liza ang role bilang “Taffy,” ang step sister ni “Lisa Swallows” na gagampanan naman ng American actress na si Kathryn Newton.
Naikuwento pa nga ng American director na hindi naniwala sa una si Liza noong pinag-audition niya sa kanyang pelikula.
“I think Liza thought that I was kidding originally, when I told her that she should come in and read for the movie and read the script. I think she was like, ‘No, you don’t want me in your movie.’ ‘Yes, I do. You’re brilliant’,” chika ni Zelda sa isang exclusive interview with TV Patrol.
Nabanggit din niya na nakilala niya si Liza through a common friend and dito niya raw nakita na fit ang Pinay actress sa hinahanap niya sa isang karakter na “sweet” at “loving aura.”

“I really wanted someone who could play so earnestly and sweetly and lovingly and everyone was kind of playing it very meanly, no matter what notes I gave them,” sambit ni Zelda.
Kwento niya, “I asked her myself I was like, ‘Please, please, will you tape this? I think you’re right for it.’ And everyone fell in love with her. She’s most people’s favorite part of this whole movie.”
Para sa kaalaman ng marami, si Direk Zelda ay anak ng legendary comedy actor na si Robin Williams at ng Filipino-American na si Marsha Garces.
Ang pelikulang “Lisa Frankenstein” ay ang kanyang directorial debut na umiikot ang istorya sa isang teenager na na umibig sa isang gwapong bangkay.
Narito ang synopsis ng upcoming film mula sa Universal Pictures:
“‘Lisa Frankenstein,’ a sardonic spin on Mary Shelley’s 1818 classic, tells the story of Lisa Swallows (Kathryn Newton), an awkward 17-year-old trying to adjust to a new school and a new life after her mother’s death and her father’s hasty remarriage.
“Despite the unwavering support offered by her plucky cheerleader step sister Taffy (Liza Soberano), Lisa only finds solace in the abandoned cemetery near her house, where she tends to the grave of a young man who died in 1837 – and whose corpse she unwittingly reanimates (Cole Sprouse).
“Feeling obligated to help the poor soul regain his humanity, Lisa embarks on a quest to breathe new life into her long-dead new companion. All she needs to succeed are some freshly harvested body parts and Taffy’s broken tanning bed.”
Ang horror romantic comedy ay mapapanood sa mga lokal na sinehan sa darating na February 7.
