Sandra Bullock: A Novelist Turned Adventurer in ‘The Lost City’

Sandra Bullock has long been drawn to the idea of making an action-adventure film seasoned with comedy, like the classic sweeping adventures she has enjoyed as a moviegoer. So, she decided to produce one, through her production company Fortis Films. And with that, The Lost City is born!

Sandra Bullock as Producer

As expected, the Academy Award-winning actor and respected filmmaker aimed high. Bullock recalls, “We knew we were ambitious in what we were trying to pull off… but we also knew we HAD to pull it off. This film wouldn’t work if all the tones in it didn’t intersect seamlessly. The central characters are a shut-in author and a model, neither of whom should be in a jungle or even out in nature. Jungles eat people like them. They should remain in a hermetically sealed building with air conditioning.”

In the film, brilliant but reclusive author Loretta Sage (Bullock) has spent her career writing about exotic places in her popular romance-adventure novels featuring handsome cover model Alan (Tatum), who has dedicated his life to embodying the hero character, “Dash.” While on tour promoting her new book with Alan, Loretta is kidnapped by an eccentric billionaire (Daniel Radcliffe) who hopes that she can lead him to the ancient lost city’s treasure from her latest story.

Wanting to prove that he can be a hero in real life and not just on the pages of her books, Alan sets off to rescue her. Thrust into an epic jungle adventure, the unlikely pair will need to work together to survive the elements and find the ancient treasure before it’s lost forever.

Sandra Bullock and Channing Tatum star in Paramount Pictures’ “THE LOST CITY.”

Sandra Bullock as Loretta Sage

Loretta is really a historian disguised as a best-selling author of romantic historical fiction. “No one would buy her history books,” Bullock explains, “so Loretta added some sex to sell them and found great success with that.”

A widow whose beloved husband was an archaeologist, Loretta is now a recluse. She hides in a comfortable house, surrounded by artifacts and memories, finding adventure in the stories she concocts while pining for a life that has long since passed. “Loretta finds comfort in her home, books, words, and in her brain,” says Bullock. “She finds adventure in her imagination and has no need to go out there and look for it.”

Instead, Loretta seems more than satisfied to send her heroine, Dr. Angela Lovemore, into the wild in such floridly titled books as “A Year in the Bush” and, her latest release, “The Lost City of D.”

Sandra Bullock and Channing Tatum star in Paramount Pictures’ “THE LOST CITY.”

When Loretta comes down with writer’s block, her best friend and publisher/marketing guru, Beth, insists that she attend a book convention to get the ideas flowing and spice up sales. But Beth knows success at the convention will take more than a personal appearance by the author; it requires a secret weapon – Dash, the strikingly handsome model who graces the covers of Loretta’s romance novels. Then, the shenanigans begin.

Sandra Bullock closes with her hopes and thoughts for a big-scale entertainment in which she served in two key roles. “You could make a ride out of this film at Disneyland, with its scope and scale. It transports you, makes you feel like you’re flying, and makes you feel like you’re there with Loretta and Dash in the vastness of this jungle. So, if we can’t go on vacation just yet, hopefully you’ll be able to go into the movie theaters and feel like you’ve been on a vacation with us.”

In Philippine cinemas on April 20, The Lost City is distributed by Paramount Pictures through Columbia Pictures.

The Bistro Group is Set to Open 17 New Stores in Ayala Malls this Year

Crises like this pandemic may have turned the world upside down but it can also strengthen ties and bolster the importance of business collaborations.

Such is the case with The Bistro Group and Ayala Malls. Tracing its first partnership over 25 years ago when the first TGIFridays opened at Glorietta 3, The Bistro Group’s President Jean Paul Manuud, spoke of the planned expansion in Ayala Malls. “We have a successful relationship, notwithstanding the challenges brought about by this pandemic. In fact, now that the economy is on a rebound, we are ready to expand in different Ayala Malls with the opening of more stores in different locations.”

Of Bistro’s 30 target openings this year, 17 will be located at Ayala Malls, Manuud disclosed. (To date, the company has 18 local and foreign restaurant brands with over 100 branches nationwide tucked under its belt.)

The new Ayala Triangle, for instance, will be home to their high-end concepts like Rumba (a local Mediterranean Spanish restaurant whose menu was created by Chef Alfredo Rodriguez); Helm (the group’s exclusive, fine dining, degustation restaurant by Chef Josh Boutwood) as well as the widely-popular, Italianni’s.

Another international brand that is in the offing is Olive Garden, a popular restaurant chain in the US serving Italian-inspired dishes. It will be have a branch at Glorietta 3.

The Bistro Group also proudly supports its corporate executive chef, Josh Boutwood. This April, his new concept called Ember, will open at Greenbelt 3. A sophisticated and chic restaurant with high emphasis on amazing ingredients and a more delicate cooking method, Ember cooks with what is left glowing from the flame. Hence, the name Ember. This is Boutwood’s first foray into a mainstream, high-traffic mall and he is very excited over this prospect.

Manuud likewise shared that plans are afoot for the expansion of Bistro’s existing brands, including Modern Shanghai at UPTC, Greenbelt and Glorietta 3; TGIFridays at UPTC; Fish & Co. at UPTC and Glorietta 3; Watami at Glorietta 3; and El Pollo Loco at Greenbelt, ATC, UPTC, Ayala 30^th and Trinoma.

Enduring business relationship

“One of the biggest lessons we learned when the pandemic hit the world was that we had to be nimble in adapting to ensuing challenges. We reinforced our commitment to resiliency, pivoting to new strategies like solidifying our delivery scheme with our own Bistro Delivers app and website. We also implemented stricter guidelines for a safe dine-in experience,” Manuud explained.

“The world does not stop revolving when businesses are threatened by a crisis like Covid19. The takeaway in such a situation is to soldier on and seize opportunities to bounce back, recover and re-strengthen strategic partnerships and collaboration,” Manuud shared. “The success of any business depends, to a large extent, on relationships, trust, and synergy. We value our history with Ayala Malls and remain optimistic that we will be working alongside them for many more years.” “The situation now is significantly different from last year’s when we felt the gloom of the pandemic hovering over us,” Manuud said. “We have not totally changed our expansion plans to bring in more concepts, we just postponed them. We are hopeful that the present scenario of optimism will prevail.”

Discover the Past of Hogwarts’ Headmaster in ‘Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore’

Warner Bros. Pictures’ “Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore” is a magical adventure that sends a team of unlikely heroes, led by Newt Scamander (Eddie Redmayne), on a mission that could spell their only chance to save both the wizarding and non-magical worlds. Each has a role to play in this covert operation devised by the ultimate wizarding mastermind: Professor Albus Dumbledore (Jude Law).

Dumbledore has been one of the most revered figures in the Wizarding World canon since he was first introduced some 20-plus years ago. However, the beloved wizard of the Harry Potter books and movies has an intriguing history that is unveiled in the third film in the “Fantastic Beasts” series.

Jude Law, who returns to the role of the wizard destined to be Headmaster at Hogwarts, reveals, “What I enjoyed the most was the opportunity to unpeel more of Dumbledore’s past. There were hints of it in the last film, but here we are able to delve into his connection with Gellert Grindelwald as young men and the point at which it started to break. Albus had once shared with Grindelwald quite extreme views about Muggles, which he worked out himself as being wrong and backed away. But he lives with that dark secret and the fallout from their relationship.”

Portrayed by Mads Mikkelsen, Gellert Grindelwald had been a wanted man due to his radical beliefs and violent tactics. Now, the powerful Dark wizard has emerged from the shadows, ready to implement his plot to gain control of the entire wizarding world and wage all-out war on the Muggles. This time, however, he is not operating outside the law but within the system while twisting it to his own ends, which makes him all-the-more dangerous.

Dumbledore is the one wizard with the power to thwart Grindelwald’s ambitions, but there remains a physical manifestation of their previous relationship that stops him. Law explains, “The blood oath is the embodiment of the bond between Gellert and Albus, one made through youthful passion and belief. Even though their lives have taken very different directions, they are still connected in this stalemate, which, from Albus’s point of view, is hugely frustrating.”

Ever the chess master, Dumbledore formulates a plan that involves his friend and former student, Newt Scamander, joining forces with a small band of wizards, witches and one brave Muggle. Yates observes, “Dumbledore has a checkered history of encouraging people to do crazy things, but we love him for that, nonetheless.”

Warner Bros. Pictures presents a Heyday Films Production, a David Yates film, “Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore,” in Philippine theaters Black Saturday, April 16. The film will be distributed worldwide in select theatres and IMAX by Warner Bros. Pictures.

Panda Express Opens New Branch at the SM Southmall in Las Piñas

A green light for the world-famous The Original Orange Chicken® as it travels southbound. Panda Express®—the world’s largest American Chinese dining concept— opens its newest branch today, April 1, 2022, at the SM Southmall in Las Piñas City.

Located at the Lower Ground Level, the latest store will be the seventh Panda Express in the whole Metro Manila area, since opening its first location at SM Megamall in Ortigas, Pasig City in late 2019.

“We are thrilled to announce that we continue to expand our stores here. We have received so much love from our fans in the Philippines and what better way to reciprocate this kind of brand love than to bring Panda Express closer to them. We can’t wait for more people to try our American Chinese favorites, as well as the new dishes in the pipeline,” said Ned Bandojo, Business Development Head, Foreign Franchises Brands of the Jollibee Group.

The latest store opening forms part of the plans of JBPX Foods, Inc.—the joint venture of Jollibee Foods Corporation with Panda Express operator, Panda Restaurant Group, Inc.—to open more branches in the country in response to the guest cravings of savory Panda Express dishes.

The newest dish on Panda’s serving table is Kung Pao Fish, a limited time offer product inspired by the classic Panda entrée, Kung Pao Chicken.
