WATCH: Kris Aquino finally confirms role in 'Crazy Rich Asians'

In 2017, the actress/TV host considers doing this movie as a big risk on her part.

She said, “I was at practically back to zero when i auditioned for this film March 25, 2017. Sumugal na dahil ang pakiramdam po walang mawawala... Na shock dahil June 14, 2017 nag start mag shooting na... Bawal pa rin mag reveal nung role ko.”

 

If there was ever a time you had doubts about the future because of the burdens of today- i hope this post will inspire you. I was at practically back to zero when i auditioned for this film March 25, 2017. Sumugal na dahil ang pakiramdam po walang mawawala... Na shock dahil June 14, 2017 nag start mag shooting na... Bawal pa rin mag reveal nung role ko (waiting for the go signal of @wbpictures when we can release some pictures of me in costume kasi pag nakita na yung gawa ni @michael5inco medyo giveaway na po) pero para po sa karangalan nating mga Pinoy- napakalaking “boost” ito! I have been greatly blessed because my US based agent @agentchrislee sent me the official invitation & i am excited to see @kevinkwanbooks again- kailangan na lang po ng permission ng isang super big food brand dahil may 3 day endorsement shoot for them na matatamaan. #kapitlang #lovelovelove ????

Netizen @anuponpranong commented on this post of Kris and said that her exposure in this movie will be just five seconds.

Kris immediately replied and clarified that she had never said that she will have a long exposure in Crazy Rich Asians which was adopted from the bestselling book of Kevin Kwan.

“Thank you… it is sooooooo difficult to not speak my TRUTH. Because when people actually watch the movie they’’ know what I mean.

“Ito lang po ang pwede kong sabihin- IKINATABA ng puso ko na sobrang nagmamahal sa lahat ng Pilipino na nakikipagsapalaran sa lahat ng sulok ng mundo sa maliit o malaki mang posisyon, na ako ‘yung napili for this role.

“I never claimed the role had long exposure BUT it is very MEANINGFUL. And we can be proud!”
