Raise your glasses and toast to love this 2020 as VIVA FILMS reunite JC Santos and
Bela Padilla in this exciting screen project, ON VODKA, BEERS, AND REGRETS.
The movie follows the story of Jane Pineda, a washed up actress and former child
star whose career hits rock bottom. Struggling to get movie roles and trying to
escape from a big scandal, Jane seeks comfort in alcohol. Then one drunken night at
a bar, she meets Francis, vocalist of a band. Suddenly, things started to change for
Jane. She now finds comfort in Francis’ company. For his part, Francis, who’s with
Jane drunk or sober, is more than willing to love her. But will his love be enough to
keep Jane or will his love fall short and in the end, he will lose her?
ON VODKA, BEERS, AND REGRETS is the third on-screen pairing of JC Santos and Bela
Padilla. Their first movie was 100 TULA PARA KAY STELLA, an official entry to the
Pista ng Pelikulang Pilipino. Their tandem was such a huge hit that there was a
clamor to see them paired anew, so in 2018, moviegoers were treated to another
Pista ng Pelikulang Pilipino official entry - THE DAY AFTER VALENTINE’S. But as it was
with their previous collaboration, hopeless romantics were left brokenhearted yet
again.
So this 2020, will those lovesick fans finally get the happy ending they want to see
for JC and Bela? Or will there be another collective sigh of dashed hopes and broken
hearts courtesy of ON VODKA, BEERS, AND REGRETS?
On January 3, 2020 VIVA Films posted on their Facebook page the teaser trailer for
ON VODKA, BEERS, AND REGRETS and in just 3 hours, the teaser had more than
900,000 views and was shared by over 30,000 people. Within 24 hours, the film’s
teaser has already reached 4 million views across all social media platforms, making
it one of the most-anticipated films at the start of the year.
Fans will be delighted to find out this movie is written and directed by Irene Emma
Villamor, who was responsible for a string of box-office hits like SID & AYA: NOT A
LOVE STORY, MEET ME IN ST. GALLEN and CAMP SAWI.
Adding a fresh dose of excitement to the movie, VIVA’s rising star Raphiel Shannon
was asked to sing the movie’s soundtrack “Mundo”, the smash hit single back in
2018 by IV of Spades.
So prepare for a heady mix of love and, who knows, maybe a hint of heartbreak yet
again, that only JC and Bela can serve on-screen when you watch ON VODKA, BEERS,
AND REGRETS in cinemas on February 5.
