Alessandra De Rossi Disillusioned After She Didn't End Up With Piolo Pascual In 'Since I Found You', Will Concentrate On Doing Movies Like 'Through Day & Night'

ALESSANDRA DE ROSSI continues her twin jobs as actress and writer. After writing and starring in “12”. She now also stars and wrote the story of her new movie, “Through Night & Day”, where she’s also a co-producer along with Viva Films. The film was partly shot in Iceland and she says she nearly gave up shooting there because it’s so cold. “Malamig din sa Sapporo, Japan when we shot ‘Kita Kita’ there, pero mas grabe sa Iceland,” she says. “Well, hindi naman siguro tatawaging Iceland ang lugar na yun kundi nga talagang kasing lamig ng ice ang klima nila.”

In the story, she plays Jen, a wannabe lawyer who has flunked the bar exams twice. She’s been in a relationship with Paolo Contis as Ben for 13 years and now that they’re about to get married, they go to Iceland for their prenup pictorial. “It’s the first time for them to travel together in a foreign land and first time din na magkasama sila through night and day,” she adds. “At dahil nga araw-gabi silang magkasama, natural, may mga natuklasan pa sila tungkol sa isa’t isa na hindi nila alam before at pinag-aawayan na nila. So ayun, they had second thoughts kung itutuloy pa ba nila o hindi ang pagpapakasal nila. People who are in a relationship can surely relate sa mga nangyari sa amin ni Paolo in ‘Through Night & Day’ kasi very relatable and characters at ang mga sitwasyon dito.”

Alex says she’ll focus on doing movies now after she was disillusioned by the last soap she did, “Since I Found You”, with ABS-CBN. She says that originally, she was told that leading man Piolo Pascual will end up with her in the story. But what happened is that Piolo’s leading lady became Arci Munoz. “Umasa talaga ako kasi when it was offered to me, ako talaga ang leading lady. You know me, two years akong walang show kasi lahat ng roles offered to me, tinatanggihan ko. Finally, may role na gusto ko. Kasi leading lady, ‘bago ‘to, hmm try nga natin.’ E, yun, hindi nga ganun ang nangyari. Three weeks before the ending, sinabi sa’king hindi ako ang leading lady. So sumama ang loob ko that time, kasi pinaasa ako. Sencia na, tao lang po ako. Pero masaya na rin akong natapos yung show kasi gustong-gusto ko ng gawin itong ‘Through Night & Day’. So okay na rin kasi naghihintay nga sa’kin itong movie na ito at excited na rin akong i-shoot siya. Sa ngayon, rest muna ako sa mga soap. At least, nagawa ko itong pelikulang gusto kong gawin and I’m really very proud of it. Kung bakit, malalaman nyo kapag pinanood nyo ang ‘Through Night & Day’.”
