After 15 years of playing supporting roles and ensemble characters, Miles Ocampo may have her first-ever leading role in a movie.
“Hindi po ako sanay. Sabi ko nga po kay Direk, ‘Direk, ganito pala ‘yun,” Miles Ocampo said in a press conference Monday. “Kasi sanay po ako pag nagshu-shoot ‘di ba po may iba pang nakukunan. Ito mula po opening to closing ng araw, ako ‘yung kasama.“
Miles also shared in a press conference that there were times that she asked herself why it takes years before having a leading role in a film.
“Dumating po ako sa point na nagtatanong ako: ‘Bakit ang tagal? Bakit wala pa?’ Pero kahit papaano habang tumatagal tayo sa industriya, na-realize ko na hindi ko pala ini-aim ‘yung maging super galing,” she said. “Parang ang para sa akin, kung sino ‘yung nagtatagal, kung sino ‘yung nag-stay, masaya na po ako sa ganun.”
She also said that quitting may not be an option despite having a problem with her new role.
“Kasi po bata pa lang po ako, ito na ‘yung gusto kong gawin. And ‘yung conflict naman po with my school, ‘yun nga lang minsan may mga kailangan akong matanggihan na projects na kailangan ko po talagang piliin ‘yung iba,” she said. “Kaya ko po natatanggihan. But ‘yun po. Hindi naman po pumasok sa isip ko na mag-stop ever.“
Meanwhile, Miles admitted that she was happy that she was able to achieve her dream to star in the said film.
“May mga moments na kinikilig ako. Iniimagine ko na gagawin ko siya sa mga eksena,” she admitted. “Kasi po lumaki ka sa industriya. Pangarap mong mag rom-com. Tapos nung ginagawa na po namin ‘yung mga ganung eksena, nakakakilig.”
The film “Write About Love” will be available in Philippine cinemas starting December 25. This film will also star Rocco Nacino, Yeng Constantino, and Joem Bascon.
