The whole cast except Kimpoy was there during the blogcon of the Vhong Navarro movie Da Possessed. This is his first movie after the controversial rape case filed against him by Deniece Cornejo and Delfin Lee. It was great news for the star to have been able to get justice when the DOJ finally junked the case last April 4, 2014. The film marks his comeback in the movies too which is hopefully going to be at par with his previous ones Mr. Suave, D' Anothers and Agent X44 all of which consequently have been directed by Bb. Joyce Bernal.
Veteran comedian Joey Marquez, Joy Viado, Smokey Manoloto and Beverly Salviejo are also part of the cast. They are joined by not so gay actor John "Sweet" Lapuz who's complaining that he's been typecasted as a gay guy in films and the sexy-sultry Ms. Solenn Heussaff as Vhong's love interest in this movie. One of the film's writer was also present to give some facts on the creative process too. He says it wasn't hard to create material for Vhong because no matter what you give him, he can execute it well. He's got his own brand of humor and you can't just find that in most actors these days.
It was funny to hear them tell some of the stories while filming. They were also shelling some secrets in doing comedy and how they attacked the roles that were given to them. Solenn Heussaff also hinted that she had a crush on Vhong, which the actor gladly got so excited with to the delight of the crowd.
They also had a time when Joy Viado and Beverly Salviejo had a disagreement in statements, so automatically Smokey Manaloto, John Lapuz and Joey Marquez ganged up on them and wanted to make them fight. They were hilarious!
No matter how serious this may be, it'll still fall on a hilarious situation. With spectacular writing and great situational scenes, this is bound to be another blockbuster in the making. This is also an offering for Star Cinema's 20th anniversary and the pressure for Vhong to make this movie perform the same way as their previous films is big... he said he'll do his best and hopes the audience would love it the way they do. It's a little naughty, a little more in the manly humor as the writer explains but it's not cheap slapstick. You'll laugh and have a good time with your family and friends if you choose to watch this new Vhong Navarro starrer. You'll also see how fantastic Vhong Navarro could be in physical comedy. I even heard he's the Jim Carrey of the Philippines, I couldn't agree more.
Da Posessed will be shown on April 19 in your favorite theaters. They won't have a premier night but will be shown on Black Saturday so make sure you rush to theaters and see this film. They say this is better than Vhong's previous films so let's see if they can prove that statement shall we?! :)
