Vilma Santos and Kim Chiu star in the upcoming horror film The Healing under Star Cinema. The movie is the first time we will see Kim Chiu and Governor Vi together in the big screen.
The Healing, which is directed by no less than Chito S. Roño (Feng Shui, Sukob, T2) is set for a July 25 release.
In The Healing, Gov. Vilma Santos will be playing a stepmother role to Kim's character. Meanwhile, Kim's role is very challenging as her character has a doppelgänger. This term, which literally means "double walker" in German, refers to a ghostly double of a living person, typically representing evil or misfortune.
In an interview, Kim said that she learned a lot working with Gov. Vi and Direk Chito. “It’s a wonderful experience. Ang dami kong natutunan sa kanya as an actress and as a person, and kay direk Chito (Roño) rin, sobra akong nag-enjoy. Parang nag-grow ‘yung acting ko. Marami akong natutunan in terms of work sa set.”
Kim also shared an advice from the Star For All Seasons. “Sabi niya, gawin mo ang dapat mong gawin sa isang eksena, huwag mong sasayangin. Paulit-ulit niyang sinasabi na sayang ‘yung eksena.”
Aside from Kim and Gov. Vi, The Healing also stars Janice De Belen, Martin del Rosario, Mark Gil, Carmi Martin, Cris Villanueva, Ynez Veneracion and Pokwang.
