In tandem with the announcement, Wilde—who will attend the Festival, along with co-stars Florence Pugh, Harry Styles, Gemma Chan and Chris Pine—stated, “I am honored and thrilled that ‘Don’t Worry Darling’ will have its world premiere at the Venice Film Festival. When we dreamed of making this movie, we imagined Venice as our ultimate goal, and we can hardly believe it’s really happening! From our cast—led by the formidable Florence Pugh and Harry Styles—to the design of this world and the kinetic cinematography, the film was crafted for viewing in the collective setting of the theatrical experience. For this first screening to take place in the jewel-like surroundings of the Venice Lido and in the presence of some of international cinema’s most accomplished artists is beyond exciting. I look forward to sharing the visceral ride of ‘Don’t Worry Darling’ with the world, beginning with the Venice Film Festival, and I wish to thank Alberto Barbera and the Biennale for the selection. This is truly a dream come true.”

The Venice International Film Festival is officially recognized by the FIAPF (International Federation of Film Producers Association). The aim of the Festival is to raise awareness and promote international cinema in all its forms as art, entertainment and as an industry, in a spirit of freedom and dialogue. The Festival also organizes retrospectives and tributes to major figures as a contribution towards a better understanding of the history of cinema.

About “Don’t Worry Darling”

From New Line Cinema comes “Don’t Worry Darling,” directed by Olivia Wilde (“Booksmart”) and starring Florence Pugh (Oscar-nominated for “Little Women”), Harry Styles (“Dunkirk”), Wilde (upcoming “Babylon”), Gemma Chan (“Crazy Rich Asians”), KiKi Layne (“The Old Guard”) and Chris Pine (“All the Old Knives”).

Alice (Florence Pugh) and Jack (Harry Styles) are lucky to be living in the idealized community of Victory, the experimental company town housing the men who work for the top-secret Victory Project and their families. The 1950’s societal optimism espoused by their CEO, Frank (Chris Pine)—equal parts corporate visionary and motivational life coach—anchors every aspect of daily life in the tight-knit desert utopia.

While the husbands spend every day inside the Victory Project Headquarters, working on the “development of progressive materials,” their wives—including Frank’s elegant partner, Shelley (Gemma Chan)—get to spend their time enjoying the beauty, luxury and debauchery of their community. Life is perfect, with every resident’s needs met by the company. All they ask in return is discretion and unquestioning commitment to the Victory cause.

But when cracks in their idyllic life begin to appear, exposing flashes of something much more sinister lurking beneath the attractive façade, Alice can’t help questioning exactly what they’re doing in Victory, and why. Just how much is Alice willing to lose to expose what’s really going on in this paradise?

An audacious, twisted and visually stunning psychological thriller, “Don’t Worry Darling” is a powerhouse feature from director Olivia Wilde that boasts intoxicating performances from Florence Pugh and Harry Styles, surrounded by the impressive and pitch-perfect cast.

The film also stars Nick Kroll (“How It Ends”), Sydney Chandler (“Pistol”), Kate Berlant (“Once Upon a Time… In Hollywood”), Asif Ali (“WandaVision”), Douglas Smith (“Big Little Lies”), Timothy Simons (“Veep”) and Ari’el Stachel (upcoming “Respect the Jux”).

Wilde directs from a screenplay penned by her “Booksmart” writer Katie Silberman, based on a story by Carey Van Dyke & Shane Van Dyke (“Chernobyl Diaries”) and Silberman. The film is produced by Wilde, Silberman, Miri Yoon and Roy Lee, with Richard Brener, Celia Khong, Alex G. Scott, Catherine Hardwicke, Carey Van Dyke and Shane Van Dyke executive producing.

Wilde is joined behind the camera by two-time Oscar-nominated director of photography Matthew Libatique (“A Star Is Born,” “Black Swan”), production designer Katie Byron (“Booksmart”), editor Affonso Gonçalves (“The Lost Daughter”), Oscar-nominated composer John Powell (“Jason Bourne”), music supervisor Randall Poster (“No Time to Die”) and costume designer Arianne Phillips (“Once Upon a Time… In Hollywood”).

A New Line Cinema presentation, “Don’t Worry Darling” will be distributed worldwide by Warner Bros. Pictures and is set to open in cinemas across the Philippines on September 28. Join the conversation online and use the hashtag #DontWorryDarling

Idris Elba Faces Relentless Lion’s Fury and Battles for Family’s Survival in “Beast”

It’s a battle for survival between man and Beast, where Idris Elba’s character, Dr. Nate travels back to South Africa with his daughters only to face the most insurmountable challenge of their lives, to make it out alive from fangs of the rogue and most lethal lion in the savannah.

In Beast, Dr. Nate Daniels (Elba) met his wife in South Africa and both moved on to build a life in the US until the death of his wife. Determined to pick up the broken pieces, Dr. Nate brings his daughters Meredith (Iyana Halley) and Norah (Leah Jeffries) back to Africa to honor their mother. They are welcomed by Dr. Nate’s long-time friend Martin (Sharlto Copley), a game reserve manager who is also a wildlife biologist and ardent anti-poacher.

The apex predator’s attack on Dr. Nate’s family may have been expected, but through the decades of tending to preservation of the wildlife, Martin has never seen a lion attack people with the relentless fury that Dr. Nate’s family is experiencing. It seems that the lion is bent on seeking revenge upon the humas who have encroached their territory and slaughtered his pride instead of just fighting to survive.

From the moment they were born, Nate has loved his two daughters with everything he had and knew how to give. When she was diagnosed with cancer, the physician who had long used his hands to heal others could not save the one he cherished the most. Now, trapped in a game reserve with only his instincts to guide them, Nate has to survive for his girls to live. If that is to happen, Meredith and Norah must learn to trust him again.

Elba, for his part is eager for audiences to experience a new kind of thrill that Beast has to offer. “I think it’s a first,” Elba says. “We’ve seen films where the antagonist is a beast or an animal and our heroes are being chased, but this has a dynamic that merges both a family dynamic that we are invested in…alongside the thriller aspects. The thrill ride doesn’t stop.”

A Universal Pictures International release, Beast will open in Philippine cinemas on August 10, ahead of its US release.

Mama Sita’s ‘Mga Kwentong Pagkain’ Puts Spotlight on Vegan Food Influencer Jeeca Uy This Nutrition Month

To celebrate Nutrition Month, the Mama Sita’s Mga Kuwentong Pagkain (MKP) spotlights the stories of inspiring Filipinos, whose creativity in the kitchen proves one can enjoy healthy, wholesome meals and at the same time appreciate the value of living sustainably.

Deliciously vegan

Filipino influencer Jeeca Uy (@thefoodietakesflight) on creativity in the kitchen

Jessica “Jeeca” Uy is a 24-year-old influencer who started an Instagram account in 2015. Today, she has over 800,000 followers, a website, a book, and more posts up her sleeve. What makes her different from other influencers her age? Her insta is about cooking—vegan cooking!

Scallion Buns

“I learned to cook when I was younger, but it was when I went vegan that I really got to apply what I learned growing up,” shares Jeeca, who went vegan in the same year she started her social media handle, @thefoodietakesflight. “I wanted to create vegan versions of my favorite food. I learned a lot from simple stir-frying, braising, pan-frying, baking techniques that I get to apply to plant-based food and alternative protein, like my favorite tofu, today.”

Going vegan

The young cook shares that going vegan “overnight” and being vegan through college had its challenges, but she wouldn’t have wanted it another way. “I think being vegan made me see vegetables in a different light. I saw them as more than just a side or an accompaniment to another main ingredient, and instead saw the potential of tofu and vegetables as the main star of the dish. There are so many different vegetables with varying textures and tastes that I really love to work with.”

Kung Pao Tofu

This new perspective inspired Jeeca to spend hours in the kitchen experimenting with ingredients, flavors, textures, and techniques. Her style is not to focus on salads and wraps, but to re-imagine the food she grew up with as vegan dishes.

Healthy and wholesome eating

Veganism is often associated with healthful living, and one reason why is the use of fresh and wholesome ingredients. Jeeca shares that she doesn’t “do big grocery shopping days,” but buys her fresh produce from a vegetable vendor who passes by her house. “His name is Rey and I usually just get what I need for the day (and the upcoming 3-5 days) from him and work around what I want to cook from there. So, if today he comes selling bell peppers and eggplants, I’d usually buy a few and make an eggplant dish and something with bell peppers for the week.”

Tofu Sisig

Her menu revolves around what’s fresh and available. Tofu and fresh shiitake and king oyster mushrooms are always in stock, as well as dry good like rice, noodles, beans, and dried mushrooms. She buys from her local Chinese or Korean stores. Her freezer keeps frozen noodles, dumpling wrappers, and ready-to-eat vegan food (which she enjoys occasionally as a treat). “I could say my menus are very dependent on what product and ingredients I have access to and work around those,” says Jeeca.

Seasonings, oils, and sauces

Of course, there’s the seasonings and sauces she uses to create different flavor profiles. Some of her go-to options include soy sauces, vinegars, sesame oil, vegetarian oyster sauce, sake, mirin, fermented bean pastes, and chili sauces. She even makes her own chili oil!

For Filipino cooking, Jeeca shares, “I love Mama Sita’s Coconut Vinegar, Sukang Iloko, and Pinoy Ensalada for vinegars—I have an ever-growing stash of vinegars at home that I use for cooking and making different sauces for dipping or marinades. Vinegars are a key ingredient in Filipino cooking, so I really can’t live without them. I really love the different sinigang mixes, from the classic Sinigang sa Sampalok to Sinigang sa Bayabas. I love how these are vegan by default! I use Mama Sita’s Vegetarian Oyster Sauce, Barbecue Marinade, Sisig, and Adobo Marinade for my recipes. They’re super handy to have in my pantry and are staples for my cooking.”

What’s interesting is that this vegan cook’s creativity led her to use the Sinigang Mix in a different way: “I’ve actually made sinigang fried rice using the sinigang powders. It’s actually so good to sprinkle the powder over anything and everything, but that fried rice was just on another level with a mix of vegetables!” she shares.

Seven years since her lifestyle change, Jeeca can say that her food choices go beyond the plate: this young cook’s healthy cooking is also her way of living a more sustainable lifestyle. With her creativity, influence, and relevant message, Jeeca has shown that foodies like her can not only take flight, but also soar.

Courtesy of Netflix

About THE SCHOOL FOR GOOD AND EVIL:

In the village of Gavaldon, two misfits and best friends, Sophie (Sophia Anne Caruso) and Agatha (Sofia Wylie), share the unlikeliest of bonds. Sophie, a golden-haired seamstress, dreams of escaping her dreary life to become a princess, while Agatha, with her grim aesthetic and offbeat mother, has the makings of a real witch. One night under a blood-red moon, a powerful force sweeps them away to the School for Good and Evil — where the true stories behind every great fairy tale begin. Yet something is amiss from the start: Sophie is dropped into the School for Evil, run by the glamourous and acid-tongued Lady Lesso (Charlize Theron), and Agatha in the School for Good, overseen by the sunny and kind Professor Dovey (Kerry Washington). As if navigating classes with the offspring of the Wicked Witch (Freya Parks), Captain Hook (Earl Cave), and the dashing son of King Arthur (Jamie Flatters) wasn’t hard enough, according to the Schoolmaster (Laurence Fishburne), only true love’s kiss can change the rules and send the girls to their rightful schools and destiny. But when a dark and dangerous figure (Kit Young) with mysterious ties to Sophie reemerges and threatens to destroy the school and the world beyond entirely — the only way to a happy ending is to survive their real-life fairytale first.

Based on the epic international best-selling series by Soman Chainani, THE SCHOOL FOR GOOD AND EVIL is directed by Paul Feig, stars Sophia Anne Caruso, Sofia Wylie, Laurence Fishburne, Michelle Yeoh, Jamie Flatters, Kit Young, Peter Serafinowicz, Rob Delaney, Mark Heap, Patti LuPone and Rachel Bloom, with Kerry Washington and Charlize Theron.

The finale trailer for “FPJ’s Ang Probinsyano” featuring Coco Martin top trended on Twitter with netizens flooding social media, marking the end of an era for an iconic cop character, Cardo Dalisay (Coco), that is beloved by millions of Filipino viewers.

Coco, whose announcement on social media earned more than two million views since its release, formally announced that the longest-running Philippine teleserye that has captured the hearts and minds of millions of Filipino people for almost seven years is nearing its end.

“Mga ka-Probinsyano, dumating na po ang oras. Ang programang minahal ninyo ng pitong taon ay nalalapit na po ang pagtatapos,” Coco said in the video.

He adds, “Malungkot man na tayo’y maghihiwalay, pero walang hanggang pasasalamat ang aming nararamdaman. Nagbago man ang mundo, nandyan pa rin kayo. Kahit man po matapos ang teleseryeng ito, hinding-hindi po matatapos ang pagmamahal namin sa inyo.”

The trailer also gave a sneak-peak to the action-packed last three weeks of the series. It shows Cardo, Task Force Agila, and president Oscar (Rowell Santiago) bolstering their forces for their most dangerous and biggest mission ever – to arrest Lily (Lorna Tolentino) and regain control over the government.

The adrenaline-pumping scenes also show Cardo and Task Force Agila drawing their guns against corrupt police officials in an impending do-or-die bloodbath, which could eventually be their final face-off.

Fans stormed social media to express their sentiments over the viral “Ang Pambansang Pagtatapos” trailer, with “Ang Probinsyano” and “Cardo” quickly rising to the trending topics on Twitter Philippines.

Netizens also shared their appreciation for “FPJ’s Ang Probinsyano,” which has provided action-packed entertainment to viewers and imparted many valuable lessons throughout its historic seven-year journey.

“‘Ang Probinsyano’ is ending in three weeks. We all joke about its never-ending plot, but we gotta admit that it became a huge part of the Filipino household’s routing. Kudos to the whole team. Honestly, it’s gonna be hard to top a teleserye with this popularity and success,” tweeted @Rizz_Rianne.

“FPJ’s Ang Probinsyano may have its final episode on August 12, but the show’s impact to its viewers within 7 years will always last in their hearts and minds,” said @AltKpmlyNovelas.
