The Mistress Grosses P25 Million on First Day - Star Cinema

The Mistress starring John Lloyd Cruz and Bea Alonzo had grossed P25 million on its opening day according to Star Cinema's Advertising and Promotions manager, Mico del Rosario.

[Check out the cinema trailer of The Mistress here. For the memorable movie lines and quotable quotes, check here.]

Based on the figure, The Mistress can be considered as a super box office hit, beating the record set by The Unkabogable Praybeyt Benjamin which grossed P23.9 million on its first day. Praybeyt Benjamin which stars Vice Ganda is currently the highest-grossing Filipino film of all time.

The Mistress marks the 10th anniversary of John Lloyd Cruz and Bea Alonzo as a love team. Directed by Olivia Lamasan, it also stars veteran and award-winning actors Ronaldo Valdez and Hilda Koronel.

With a story and formula that of previous hits such as No Other Woman, The Mistress is also expected to break box office records. The question is that will it be able to topple Vice Ganda's success and eventually be hailed as the Philippines' highest-grossing movie?

Spoiler alert: If you're planning to watch the film, don't read further because some lines will spoil the story and interconnection among the characters.

"Sari. Finally. Isang linggo ko rin pinag-isipan ang pangalan mo. Gusto mong magkape? Kasi ako, gusto kong magkape kasama ka."

"Have I told you how much I hate Thursdays?"

"It's Thursday. It's the day of the week that hurts me... He is with her every Thursday, every fuckin' Thursday fuckin' her."

"Alam mo kung ano ang kaya kong gawin na hindi kaya ng Mr. Thursday mo. Kaya kitang pakasalan. Sa akin, wala kang kahati."

"Sa akin. Marami kang kahati."

"Tapusin mo na para hindi ka masaktan."

"I can't. When I married him, for better or for worse... I love him."

"He keeps on doing that to you because you keep on forgiving him."

"I live to disappoint you, father. It's my greatest joy."

"I didn't raise you to turn your back on me when I need you most... You ungrateful, boy."

"So the next time you call her a whore, I'm going to hurt you so bad so you can't say those words again. Ever."

"This my dear is your gift to me. Don't worry, mas mura pa 'to kesa balak mong iwan sa kabit mo."

You're a mistress."

"Ha?"

"Mistress. Wardrobe mistress. Yan yung tawag sa mga babaeng master cutter."

"As long as I am alive, you will never be promoted to wife."

"JD, hindi ako puta."

"Ang daming dahilan para hindi kita mahalin. Pero may isang dahilan para 'di ko magawa yun. Mahal kita. Yun lang yun."

"Yes, I am Mrs. Torres, the wife and the mother of the two men willing to kill each other for this bitch."

"Layuan mo ang asawa ko. Tagalog na yan para maintindihan mo."

One of the most dramatic confrontation scenes from the movie trailer:

JD: Do you love me?
Sari: Oo, pero
JD: Sari
Sari: Hindi ko iiwan si Rico
JD: Bakit hindi mo siya maiwan?
Sari: Umalis ka na
JD: Is it the money?
Sari: Mukha bang pera ang habol ko sa kanya?
JD: Kundi pera ano? Sex?
Sari: Kung oo. Titigilan mo na ba ako?
JD: No! Because I bet you. I'm a damn better lover.
Sari: Tama na!
JD: You enjoy being some old man’s dirty little secret ganoon ba?
Sari: Walang babaeng pinangarap maging kabit.
JD: Then get out.
Sari: Mahal ko siya.

Bea Alonzo and Ronaldo Valdez Have Love Scenes in 'The Mistress'

Star Cinema offers another controversial love story with the upcoming movie The Mistress starring Bea Alonzo and John Lloyd Cruz in celebration of their 10th anniversary as a love team.

In this movie, Bea Alonzo will be at her bravest and most daring role yet. Playing the title role as the mistress named Sari, the movie required Bea to have kissing and love scenes with an older man (Rico) played by veteran actor Ronaldo Valdez.

Ronaldo Valdez, 64, who once played Bea Alonzo's father in the hit remake I Love Betty La Fea, revealed that he and Bea will have love scenes in the movie.

“Nung mabasa ko ‘yung script at malaman ko ‘yung role ko bilang si Rico ang mature benefactor ni Sari (Bea), na-excite ako kaya pumayag agad ako. Kinilig ako kasi it’s a love story of two people na nagkataon ‘yung isa younger at ‘yung isa older tapos at nagkataon din na meron nang pamilya si Rico.”

According to the highly-acclaimed actor, the movie is a great challenge for him since it's not only a typical father that he is portraying but Bea Alonzo's lover and John Lloyd's rival. He also added that he tried to be at ease with Bea.

“Dahil baka mailang siya I tried my best to be ease with her. Ayokong isipin niya na nagte-take advantage ako. Well its work, but then again syempre kailangan ng preparations lalo na at may love scenes.”

Meanwhile, John Lloyd Cruz will be playing JD, Sari's suitor. In the movie, Bea and John Lloyd's paths will cross in an unexpected circumstance, that is when Sari is already committed to a married man, Rico (Ronaldo Valdez).

Aside from Bea, John Lloyd and Ronaldo, The Mistress also stars multi-awarded actress Hilda Koronel who will play Regina, Rico's understanding wife. This will be Ms. Hilda's first movie after six years in hiatus and the reason she said yes to the project is not just that she loved the script the first time she had read it.

“It’s a perfect project–it’s from Star Cinema, I have direk Olive, and I’m working with John Lloyd, Bea, and Ronald. When you have all these people, you just can’t say no!”

Under the direction of acclaimed director Olivia Lamasan, The Mistress will hit Philippine theaters this September 12, 2012.

'The Mistress' Starring John Lloyd Cruz and Bea Alonzo Opens September 12

In celebration of their 10th anniversary as a love team, Bea Alonzo and John Lloyd Cruz topbill the Star Cinema's latest mature film offering, The Mistress which will open in Philippines theaters this September 12.

A braver and fiercer Bea Alonzo will surprise us in The Mistress set as her reunion movie with original tandem John Lloyd Cruz. According to Bea, The Mistress is one grand celebration of a decade of her team up with Lloydie.

“Nakakatuwa kasi ang layo na ng narating nung relasyon namin bilang magkatrabaho. Isang dekada na. Honestly, bawat project ay iniisip namin baka last na, kagaya ng ‘One More Chance’ at ‘Miss You Like Crazy,’ pero hindi. Kaya sobra po talaga ang pasasalamat namin sa mga naniwala at sumusuporta sa amin sa loob ng 10 taon,” shared Bea.

“Hanggang ngayon, napapatulala pa rin ako kung pano niya dinideliver ang roles niya, he’s such a good actor. Everytime na magkatrabaho kami ni Lloydi parang may sense of familiarity ka yet it’s always refreshing kasi palagi siyang may binibigay na bago, ‘yung talagang mapapasabi ka ng ‘uy bago yun ah,” added Bea.

In their ten years as a love team, The Mistress can be considered as their 'bravest' film. Bea Alonzo said that in this film, she went out of her comfort zone and did things she had never done in a teleserye or movie.

“Seriously, kinakabahan talaga ako hanggang ngayon. Nagdalawang isip ako noong una kung kaya ko siyang gawin kasi nasanay na ako sa comfort zone ko na ano ako yung regular na mabait na character. By far, ito pinakamatapang na movie ko dahil marami akong ginawa dito na never ko pa nagawa sa teleserye man o pelikula. Mahirap siya, feeling ko aatakehin ako sa puso kada eksena,” explained Bea.

Under the direction of  Olivia Lamasan, The Mistress is a beautiful ‘imperfect love story’ which tackles infidelity. It is about the not so ordinary love between Sari Alfonso (Bea) and JD Torres (John Lloyd) whose roads crossed unexpectedly, and whose love grows at the wrong time. “What will you do if the only woman  you love is already somebody's property?”

Also starring Ronaldo Valdez, Minnie Aguilar, Clarence Delgado and Ms. Hilda Koronel, The Mistress is showing September 12 in theaters nationwide.

Star Cinema Head to Derek Ramsay: "Just tell the truth"

Star Cinema managing director Malou Santos appeals to now Kapatid star Derek Ramsay to tell the truth on the issue that the latter has been the last to know about being replaced in the movie The Mistress with Bea Alonzo.

In an article posted last April 28 on Yahoo! OMG, Derek said that he was hut by Star Cinema's decision since he was the last to know about being replaced by John Lloyd Cruz in the movie with Bea Alonzo.

“Hindi ako naniwala sa mga tao sa paligid ko na wala na nga ako talaga (sa movie). I was the last to know but I had to understand where it’s coming from. (Star Cinema) management believes it’s better for Bea to have a different partner in the movie,” Derek said.

Meanwhile, Ms. Malou Santos of Star Cinema called up Ricky Lo's Funfare to clarify the issue, saying that she respects Derek's decision to switch networks but should just tell the truth and refrain from dropping lies.

Here is the FUNFARE article by Ricky F. Lo posted yesterday, May 1.

Star Cinema managing director Malou Santos called up Funfare yesterday to clarify the item about Derek Ramsay having been “unceremoniously” taken out of The Mistress, replaced by John Lloyd Cruz as the leading man of Bea Alonzo (with Hilda Koronel and Ronaldo Valdez as the other members of the cast). Malou said that Derek did shoot for the movie for only three days and not seven days as Funfare reported. Before Derek signed up with the Kapatid Network TV5, Malou admitted that Star Cinema/ABS-CBN did make a counter-offer for both film and TV, without mentioning the talent fee involved. According to the network’s official statement, Derek must have been offered by TV5 an amount “na hindi namin kayang tapatan.” Derek and his manager Joji denied that Derek bit the TV5 offer to the tune of P600 million (too much, too much!?!). “I spoke to Joji about management’s decision last April 4 at 5 p.m.,” recalled Malou. “The text of Derek came a few minutes after that. It said, ‘Hi, Tita. I heard the sad news na papalitan n’yo po ako sa movie. Thank you, Tita, for the opportunity. Best wishes.’ I texted him back, ‘I hope you understand the decision of management.’ He replied, ‘Yes, I do.’ So it’s not true that we replaced Derek without his being informed about it.” Citing the case of Aga Muhlach who also moved from Kapamilya to Kapatid, Malou said it was an entirely different story. “Aga was shooting his Star Cinema movie In The Name Of Love with Angel Locsin when his negotiations with TV5 were going on, but he made the official announcement only when the movie was done and ready to be shown,” explained Malou. “In the case of Derek, nauna ang announcement ng paglipat n’ya sa TV5 before the movie was even finished.” Malou has one appeal to Derek: “As I wish you luck and I respect your decision (to sign up with another network), just tell the truth. Huwag lang magsalita ng hindi tama at hindi totoo.”

John Lloyd Cruz and Bea Alonzo Reunited in 'The Mistress' Movie

Seasoned love team John Lloyd Cruz and Bea Alonzo are set to reunite in a movie entitled The Mistress. The said movie is another Star Cinema offering in celebration of John Lloyd and Bea's 10th year anniversary as a love team.

Bea and John Lloyd interviewed by ABS-CBN about their reunion movie, The Mistress

Both Bea and John Lloyd are excited about this reunion movie. In an interview with TV Patrol's Gretchn Fullido on Wednesday, April 25, Lloydie said that he is looking forward to shooting his reunion movie with Bea because both of them have already grown up as actors.

Bea and John Lloyd's look test for The Mistress

“Sobrang excited ako kung paano magiging batuhan namin ni Bea sa mga eksena kasi iba na si Bea ngayon, iba na rin ako,” John Lloyd told ABS-CBN news.

“Ten years na pala kami no? I'm so excited [and] at the same time challenged. With John Lloyd, you always need to be on your toes. It’s always refreshing to work with John Lloyd,” remarked Bea Alonzo.

Their reunion movie, The Mistress will tackle a controversial theme and they will be playing deep and sensitive roles. The movie is about infidelity and it will surely be a talk-of-the-town just like No Other Woman.

The said movie will be helmed by award-winning director, Olivia M. Lamasan (Milan, In My Life, In The Name of Love).

If I was not mistaken, this is supposed to be the movie which will star Bea Alonzo and Derek Ramsay if not for the decision of Star Cinema to replace Derek who recently transferred to TV5 (read related article here).

Aside from this reunion movie, Bea and John Lloyd will also take part in the star-studded Star Magic 20th anniversary movie. John Lloyd had already shoot some scenes in Vietnam with Angelica Panganiban for this movie.

Fans will also be delighted with Bea and John Lloyd's upcoming teleserye, A Beautiful Affair which will be shot in Vienna, Austria. 

Bea nd John Lloyd last worked together in the big screen via Miss You Like Crazy in 2010 and in the teleserye  I Love Betty La Fea way back in 2009.
