DID YOU know that Director Chris Martinez signed up to do do a movie with Viva only on the condition that they will give him a movie with Anne Curtis? “Yes, I signed up with Viva kasi they promised to give me an Anne Curtis project,” says Direk Chris. “So pumirma talaga ako sa Viva para lang makatrabaho ko si Anne! Ha-ha-ha! As in nasa contract ko: Project with Anne Curtis. So I wrote ‘The Gifted’ with Anne in mind in the role of Zoe. Christine Reyes and Sam were cast after maisulat ko na ang script.
How is it working with the three of them? “Natagalan kaming tapusin yung movie kasi sobrang busy silang tatlo with other projects on TV. Inabot ng more than a year bago natapos, kasi nga napaka-in demand nilang lahat. In fact, nakagawa pa ako ng dalawang pelikula in between shooting this film. The good side naman, since we took our time in finishing it, e mas napaganda namin ito. Hindi ito minadali. One year na kaming edit nang edit. Pati effects napaghandaan namin kaya very proud kaming lahat sa movie. Very fast paced. Walang laylay. Kuwento ito ng dalawang magkaibigan from grade school na parehong gifted child. Dahil parehong super talino, later, naging magkaribal sa high grades and school honors and later, naging magkaribal din sila over Sam Milby. High comedy ito that’s loads of fun, mischief and naughtiness. Tatawa ang audience sa mga kagagahan nina Anne at Cristine from start to end.”
