Matteo Guidicelli and Shaina Magdayao
FOR the first time, Cebuano stars Shaina Magdayao and Matteo Guidicelli topbill a movie which will hit cinemas nationwide on May 2.
The film is titled, “Single Single #Love Is Not Enough.” It is directed by Veronica “Ronnie” Velasco and Pablo Biglang-awa Jr. and distributed by Star Cinema.
The movie is about strangers Joee (Magdayao) and Joey (Guidicelli) who have to live under the same roof for practical reasons.
Four weeks ago, Magdayao already hinted about the film’s release by posting on her Instagram account: “Single/ Single. LOVE is not enough. SOON.”The Kapamilya actress also shared photos on the set of the film. She also uploaded an Instagram story showing that she will have a baby in the movie “Joee girl mode on. Buntis na naman ako,” she said.
The film also stars seasoned actors Cherie Gil and Ricky Davao as well as Anna Luna, Will Devaughn, and JC Santos.
“Single Single” is the first television series in Cinema One Channel which was aired in 2015.
Cinema One Channel’s official Instagram account also uploaded the film’s official poster.
“Kahit minsan napakahirap na ng problema mo sa bahay, sa trabaho, sa sarili. Is Love Enough?” the caption reads.
Among Magdayao’s recent movie projects are “Dukot” and “My Candidate,” which were both shown in 2016.
She has been considered as director Lav Diaz’s latest muse, having shot two films under the award-winning director: “Panahon ng Halimaw,” which also stars Piolo Pascual and “Ang Saka ni Henrico” (Henrico’s Farm) with Charo Santos as the lead.
Guidicelli’s latest films are “Can’t Help Falling In Love” and “The Ghost Bride,” both of which were released last year.
