NADINE Lustre feels fired up and promises to make more movies following her Best Actress win at the 2022 Metro Manila Film Festival (MMFF) for her performance in the movie “Deleter.”
“Sobrang unreal [sa pakiramdam na ako ‘yung Best Actress]. Like what I said earlier, hindi talaga namin in-expect na makakasama sa MMFF ‘yung ‘Deleter.’ Sobrang unreal, parang nananaginip pa rin ako,” Lustre told ABS-CBN News on Tuesday night, Dec. 27. She said it was already enough for them that a lot of people want to see their movie, that’s why they see all the awards that were bestowed upon the film as a big bonus.
“I am really, really happy kasi para sa amin, para sa Team Deleter, enough reward na ‘yung gustuhin siya ng mga Pilipino na panoorin, na mag-enjoy silang lahat na panoorin. Isang malaking malaking bonus para sa Team Deleter [‘yung manalo ng awards]. I am really, really happy.”
On what’s next after winning, Lustre said she will definitely make more acting projects.
“I don’t think I am ever gonna stop. I don’t know how to explain it properly but I guess it kind of lit a fire in me,” she said.
“It’s a huge inspiration for me na. It’s not really about winning. It’s more of inspiring other people. Medyo nakaka-motivate kasi to see the result of what you are doing. Parang ang sarap sa pakiramdam na alam mo sa sarili mo na you gave your all, you know you did well. Ang sarap niya sa feeling.”
The psychological thriller film follows the story of Lyra (Lustre) while a “mysterious vengeful presence” starts to hound her as she also struggles to escape her “own troubled past.”
It is Lustre’s second big-screen offering after she resumed her acting career this year with “Greed,” following a three-year hiatus during which she focused on music. (ABS-CBN News)
