Leila De Lima wants Dawn Zulueta to portray her in a biopic film.
Former justice secretary and senatorial bet Leila De Lima said that she want the Kapamilya actress Dawn Zulueta to portray her in biographical film of her life if ever it will pursue. While it was not yet final, she already expressed her amusement about the rumored biopic.
Speaking to reporters and ABS-CBN News, De Lima said that the film should be entitled “The Lady Justice” and she wanted the “You’re My Home” star to play her role.
De Lima also said that she want the film to focus on how her parents raise her and how she does her work as a lawyer.
“Gusto kong mag-focus [ang film] sa nagawa ko, ‘yung paglaki ko, and then ‘yung nagawa ko. Paano ako pinalaki ng parents ko, at paano ako nagtrabaho sa mga ibinigay sa aking trabaho,” she said.
Dawn Zulueta has yet to endorse any candidate in this year’s election. She also said in her previous interviews that he will refuse from supporting any candidate. Zulueta is married to politician Anton Lagdameo.
Meanwhile, De Lima expressed also her excitement over the results of recent Social Weather Stations (SWS) survey commissioned by Business World. The pre-election poll showed that she was included in the 12 senators.
Leila De Lima is running under the Liberal Party whose bet for president is former DILG secretary Mar Roxas and running mate Camarines Sur Representative Leni Rorbredo.
She made headline last year after assisting a former Iglesia Ni Cristo (INC) in filing a case against the INC leaders.
