No less than Roselle Monteverde announced this and furnished us with copies of photos of her signing up a contract with her and Mother Lily. Present at the contract signing are Maricel’s manager, Veanna Fores, and actor-director Eric Quizon.
Her first film will be a romantic comedy-family movie, to be directed by Eric Quizon. It will be recalled that Maricel made a successful comeback with Regal earlier this year playing Paolo Ballesteros’ aunt in hit comedy “My 2 Mommies”, a special Mother’s Day presentation which Eric also directed. Eric was the one who talked to her to be part of that project so we’re not surprised that it’s Eric again who’s directing her new movie for Regal. Details about the story and her co-stars in this new project will be released later, but this early, we heard they want another movie queen, Susan Roces, to be part of the film.
Maricel’s second movie will be a horror flick, to be directed by Ian Lorenos who directed the hit Regal Metro filmfest entry last year, “Haunted Forest”. Mother Lily says Maricel will always be special for her since she’s one of her original Regal Babies.
“Ako rin, very special sa’kin si Mother Lily as Regal is my original home studio,” says Maricel. “I can feel her unconditional love for me. Excited na ako sa projects na gagawin namin. I look forward to 2019 dahil mukhang it will be a very good and productive year for me.”
