Star Cinema opens 2018 with drama-comedy film
Ang Dalawang Mrs. Reyes
Star Cinema opens 2018 with
a bang as it puts together two of
the most celebrated actresses
in the Philippine entertainment
industry today - Judy Ann Santos
and Angelica Panganiban - in the
heartwarming and laugh-out-loud
dramedy “Ang Dalawang Mrs.
Reyes”, which will be screened in
key countries worldwide via TFC@
theMovies starting January 26.
“Ang Dalawang Mrs. Reyes”
marks the comeback of Santos
and Panganiban on the big
screen. This is Santos’s grand
comeback to mainstream cinema
after her last full-length movie
Kusina, an official entry to the
Independent
12th Cinemalaya
Film Festival in 2016.
“I was praying for a good
project that will challenge me
and surprise the viewers. I believe
this project fulfilled that for me”,
Santos says.
On
the
other
hand,
Panganiban also returns to the big
screen fresh from her recent Best
Actress victory in FAMAS 2017 for
her superb performance in “The
Unmarried Wife”, which was also
shown outside the Philippines via
TFC@theMovies in November
2016.
Because of their achievements
and projects, the two actresses are
rightfully considered as showbiz
royalties whose individual feats

catapulted them to the highest
echelons of the industry as queens
who are both very competent in the
genres of drama and comedy.
“Ang Dalawang Mrs. Reyes”
is a film directed by Jun Robles
Lana with an original story he
developed and
a
screenplay
he
co-wrote
with
Elmer
Gatchalian.
Describing the
film, Lana says,
“The
movie
tackles a lot
of dimensions
for
women
including their
struggles”.
The film is
about
the
journey of two women – Lianne
(Santos) and Cindy (Panganiban)
– who pursue their erring
husbands who both have the
same surnames. Their seemingly
happy marriages are put to the
test when both wives discover
that their husbands have an affair,
leaving Lianne and Cindy in a
series of misadventures in the
hopes of foiling their husbands’
relationship.
More than being a movie
about infidelity, “Ang Dalawang
Mrs. Reyes” is ultimately a story
about two women who will
discover the great lengths that
they are willing to go through for
love.
Santos and Panganiban play
two very strong female characters
who are polar opposites, one
being a successful career woman
while the other
is a homemaker.
The
only
similarity
between Lianne
and Cindy is
their
driving
desire to win
back the love of
their respective
husbands.
Lianne and
Cindy will take
moviegoers of
all ages to an
emotional roller coaster ride as
both women turn to humor and
laughter amidst life’s most painful
experiences.
Providing a peek into the
minds of their characters,
Panganiban shares what urged
their characters to go after and get
back to their husbands: “When we
get hurt, a lot of things enter our
mind, and we cannot deny that
one of these is getting back to the
people who hurt us”, Panganiban
explains.
“Ang
Dalawang
Mrs.
Reyes” also stars Joross Gamboa
and JC De Vera, produced
by Star Cinema together with
Quantum Films and The Idea
First Company.
Will Lianne and Cindy win
back their husbands? Do Lianne
and Cindy have the strength to
accept reality and allow their
husbands to be fully happy at the
expense of their own happiness?
