Kris Aquino is currently in Singapore to start shooting her “dream Hollywood project.” Although there has been no official confirmation, reports speculate that she is filming the Kevin Kwan movie Crazy Rich Asians. According to reports, production for the film will start this month in Singapore.
Is Kris Aquino Really Cast For Crazy Rich Asians?
Speculations around her new project started when she signed on with a Los Angeles based talent agency which paved the way to being part of a major Hollywood movie. She also started following Kevin Kwan on Instagram and even posted about reading his novels.
The Queen of All Media has been active on Instagram lately, posting about signing the contract for the project and her flight to Singapore. Although she is bound by a non-disclosure agreement, this does not stop her from leaving hints and clues about her role. Here are what we know so far about this mysterious project of hers.
1. Kris Aquino has officially signed her contract for the film. On June 12, she shared an Instagram photo of herself after signing what looks like a contract. She also said that this was a dream come true – to be part of a “major Hollywood movie.”
2. She flew to Singapore on the same week when filming for the movie is underway. According to a Channel News Asia report, certain roads in the city will be closed for shooting the movie from June 12 to 17.
3. Although there is no official announcement, she shared hints on her possible role. Being social media savvy, Kris dropped some hints about her role in the movie. In an Instagram post on June 13, she is pictured with several pieces of luggage in front of a Singapore Air check-in counter. In her caption, she mentions that her hand-carried costumes were befitting a “princess.” Another post on June 15 shows a crown with the caption: “Wear your crown with grace and dignity.” All these clues about royalty led to speculations she may be playing the role of a princess who is a guest in the wedding in the film.
4. She will not be the only Filipino cast in the film. If she is indeed part of the movie, she will join fellow Filipino Nico Santos, a comedian who is known for his role as an illegal migrant in Superstore on NBC.
5. If she is indeed part of Crazy Rich Asians, her fans will surely support her. Kris also brings with her her legions of fans from the Philippines.
