The Devil Wears Prada 2

Hi reader! 


The Devil Wears Prada 2 
Cinema 8 Mall of Asia
April 29, 2026


I was so excited to finally watch The Devil Wears Prada. I couldn't wait to see what happens next with Andy, Miranda, Nigel, and Emily. And last April 29, I finally got to see it at Cinema 8 in Mall of Asia.

At SM Cinema, I got a bucket of Sweet and Sour Pop Corn and a tumbler of soda that was packaged with The Devil Wears Prada 2.

I won't spoil anything, but all I can say is it was definitely worth the wait. Part 2 is just beautiful. It really shows the reality of the magazine and fashion world, which is so relatable especially now that everything is online.


Miranda and Andy 


Andy Sachs ( played by Anne Hathaway)

I still love her style so much. Everything looks good on Anne Hathaway, even if she’s just wearing pajamas! She’s still that smart writer and super dedicated to her job.

 

Miranda Priestly ( Meryl Streep)

Miranda is still Miranda. Such a strong woman who knows exactly what she wants. I really admire her wisdom in this movie. Even if her words are harsh or blunt, she’s always straight to the point.


Nigel, Miranda and Andy

Nigel (Stanley Tucci)

I love Nigel’s energy and character so much. There was a part with him that really touched my heart. 


Emily (Emily Blunt) 

Her character in part 2 has a huge plot twist and that’s definitely something you should watch out for when you see the movie.

In Part 2, the magazine industry has transitioned into the digital world and it's important to embrace this change.


I left the cinema feeling completely satisfied and happy because it was truly worth watching.


If you liked Part 1, you will definitely enjoy Part 2!

Hollywood Filmmakers are mounting a feature that seeks to showcase Filipino history and heroism to an international audience

Hi reader!


US-based Filipino producer Francis B. Lara Ho and Filipino-American actor-director Michael Copon are collaborating for the film "1521" which will depict a clandestine love story against the backdrop of the epic clash between pre-colonial Filipinos and Spanish forces of Ferdinand Magellan in Mactan, Philippines more than 500 years ago.

The film boasts a powerhouse cast including Copon, renowned American actor Danny Trejo, Filipino superstar Bea Alonzo, and award-winning actress Maricel Laxa-Pangilinan.

Left to right: Francis B. Lara Ho (producer); Danny Trejo; Bea Alonzo; Maricel Laxa-Pangilinan; Michael Copon; Costas Mandylor; Hector David Jr.; and Terry Amos.

"1521" opens with the character Didi or Diwata, who dreams of being transported to pre-colonial Philippines while exploring the ruins of an ancient Spanish fort. In her dream, she becomes a native princess who falls in love with Magellan's handsome translator Enrique — their romance caught up in the conflict.

The events become more complicated after Didi awakens, and soon finds the line between her dream and reality blurring.

The film will also be told largely from the perspective of Lapu-Lapu, regarded as the first Filipino hero for leading the forces that defeated the Spaniards.

Copon, who will both direct the film and portray Lapu-Lapu, said he took on the project to highlight Filipino history and culture.

"People don't know what happened to Magellan. Some people in America think he just died. And a lot of times, the history of the Philippines gets pushed under the rug, unnoticed, which led to the passion that we wanted to embrace those stories and embrace the culture, and say 'Hey! Let me get this out there,'" said Copon, known for starring in "Power Rangers Time Force" and the teen drama "One Tree Hill."

"Even more historic is, this is the first time a Hollywood director and producer are producing a movie about a Filipino story with Hollywood stars and Filipino stars in one movie," he added.

Trejo, who starred in the "Machete" and "From Dusk till Dawn" film series, will play Magellan.

Alonzo will take on the role of Diwata while Puerto Rican actor Hector David Jr., who also appeared in "Power Rangers," portrays her love interest Enrique.

Copon said "1521" would not focus entirely on the Battle of Mactan, citing the romance between Diwata and Enrique, which he described as the "heart and soul" of the story.
"We didn't want to make a movie that is just about the battle and the war," he said.

Lara Ho said the film would be shot entirely in Palawan, which was picked for its scenic beaches and mountains.

The producer, himself a Palaweño, hoped to provide more opportunities to the people in the province through the project.

"I am actually pleasantly surprised when we did the casting that there are quite a few Palaweños who are really incredible in talent. They just need the opportunities and so that’s what we are bringing here," Lara Ho said.

"Sad to say that Palawan is one of the richest in terms of natural resources but our poverty level is very high compared to other provinces. That's why I'm hoping that bringing projects here would change that," he added.

"1521" is scheduled for release on June 12, 2023, coinciding with the 125th celebration of Philippine Independence Day.

Crazy Little Thing Called Love

Hi readers!

     How's your weekend? I have an invitation from Estee Lauder today for the launching of their new lipstick line the Pure Passion in Mall of Asia but I choose to stay home (the weather still unpredictable). Last, last Sunday (I forgot the date) I watched this movie from Thailand which has shown in ABS-CBN channel 2 (channel 10 for our cable network). It reminds me of my teenage day's where I fell in love with my crushes (yes that's plural - means more than one person) and my first love (chessy!). Like in the movie I also did some strategy so that my crush notice me (really crazy little things!). Below is the copy of the movie (tagalog version) which I saw in You Tube.


and now I'm sharing my own version of Crazy little thing called Love.
