Actress Angel Locsin was overwhelmed that Megastar Sharon Cuneta had chosen her to be part of her upcoming film "Mano Po 6: My Mother" under Regal Films.
However, in an interview during the Thanksgiving Party for "Only You," Locsin said doing the "Mano Po" film with Cuneta would not be possible since she has an exclusive contract with ABS-CBN's movie outfit, Star Cinema.
"Kasi exclusive po ako sa Star Cinema so medyo mahirap na po dahil may usapan na pong legal," Locsin said.
The actress said although it would be impossible for her to be in "Mano Po," she divulged that she and the megastar will star in a film produced by Star Cinema.
"Pero alam ko po ay mayroong niluluto ang Star Cinema na magkaroon kami ng proyekto ni Tita Sharon," Locsin said.
Locsin, whose last movie with Star Cinema was "Love Down Under," is slated to make two films that will be directed by award-winning filmmakers Cathy Garcia Molina and Chito S. Roño.
Reports also said that Locsin will be paired with seasoned actor Aga Muhlach in one of her upcoming films.
Peace mission
Locsin, meanwhile, divulged her short trip in troubled Munai town in the province of Lanao del Norte recently.
The actress, accompanied by her four friends, went to Mindanao after a month of planning. They said they went to the area without any security detail to personally witness the condition of the residents who continue to suffer due to the ongoing conflict in the southern Philippines.
She said she and her friends mingled with the locals while wearing a veil.
"Hindi ko alam ang mangyayari sa akin doon pero nandoon na. Nakita ko ang kalagayan [nila]... wala na silang lupa kasi ginawa ng kampo or pinasabog na iyong mga bahay nila," Locsin said.
She added: "Gusto ko lang malaman niyo ang kalagayan ng mga tao doon. Huwag niyo silang katakutan. Puntahan niyo at alamin niyo kung bakit ganoon [ang kalagayan nila] at tulungan natin ang mga naiipit sa giyera.”
Locsin also appealed to the government to resume the peace talks to finally end the war in Mindanao.
"Nakita namin iyong sitwasyon. Naawa lang po ako sa mga sibilyan kaya sana ipagpatuloy natin ang peace talks kasi ang apektado talaga ay ang mga sibilyan," she said.
Locsin, who was reported to be the granddaughter of one of the sultans in Mindanao, kept her silence on what kind of help she extended to the people she met in the evacuation centers.
The “Only You” star quickly shot down speculation that the trip was connected to her alleged plan to run in next year’s elections. She maintained that helping underprivileged Filipinos is just her way of sharing her blessings.
