  • The ERASERHEADS’ Huling El Bimbo World Tour 2023 Kicks Off with North America and Canada Shows

    Last February 1, 2023, Eraserheads members Ely Buendia, Raymund Marasigan, Buddy Zabala, and Marcus Adoro joined WEU Event Management Services and DVent Productions at the Manila Polo Club to officially announce details of their upcoming Eraserheads Huling El Bimbo 2023 World Tour.

    WEU Event Management Services and DVent Productions were two of the local promoters for the band’s reunion concert in Manila held last December 22, 2022 at the SMDC Festival Grounds in Parañaque.

    The following cities and dates have so far been confirmed:

    Huling El Bimbo Schedules

    Francis Lumen, President, and Ronald Esguerra, Chief Operating Officer, of WEU Event Management Services; and Maria Diane Ventura, Managing Director, of DVent Productions, a multi-national film and music production company, have confirmed that they will be partnering with NY Entourage Productions for the North America and Canada legs of the tour.

    NY Entourage Productions, represented by Nancy Yang and Angel Yang, is an international tour promotions and events company known to bring major Filipino artists to perform around the world.

    “We’ll make sure the Eraserheads are well taken care of during their stops in North America and Canada,” said Nancy Yang, Promoter under NY Entourage Productions.

    “It will be the most comfortable tour Eraserheads will have in their lifetime,” said Ronald Esguerra, COO of WEU Event Management Services. During the contract signing, the Eraserheads also took time to sign artworks by Marcus Adoro and a D&D guitar designed by Parokya Ni Edgar’s Gab Chee Kee, which are being auctioned to help support Gab’s battle with lymphoma.

    Each show will be a two-hour production featuring a set list of staple Eraserheads favorites. Fans can expect the band’s top hits to be performed, but each night will also include different songs unique to each city so no two shows are completely alike.

    Cities and dates for the Middle East, Europe, and Asia will be finalized and announced in the coming weeks. More details on the Eraserheads El Bimbo 2023 World Tour will also be shared soon. Stay tuned to official social media accounts on Facebook and Instagram for announcements.

  • Highly-Anticipated Crime Thriller Copycat Killer to Premiere Worldwide on March 31

    Adapted from a popular crime mystery novel by Japanese writer Miyuki Miyabe, Copycat Killer is set in ’90s Taipei and tells the story of the first-ever serial murder case in Taiwan. The Chinese-language crime thriller will be released on March 31 globally and exclusively on Netflix. 

    Taking advantage of the widespread interest, the media-savvy serial killer turns the case into a national spectacle, fueling gossip and notoriety. A no-nonsense prosecutor, played by award-winning actor Wu Kang-ren, vows to solve the case only to realize that things are not what they seem. Meanwhile the killer repeatedly makes a mockery of law and justice as he seeks to destroy peace and order in society.

    Untitled 1

    “Genre series are fascinating as you won’t figure out who the killer is, right until the end,” shared Wu, well-known for his versatile performances in Light The Night, Shards of Her and Mom! Don’t Do That. “Every character is connected by hidden threads, which unravel throughout the story. Likewise, I follow my character in exploring these threads, gradually forming a beautiful web of connections. I look forward to bringing viewers on the journey of discovering the masterful storytelling behind each thread.”

    Other members of the star-studded cast includes Alice Ko, Tuo Tsung-hua, Yao Chun-yao, Fandy Fan, Cammy Chiang, and Hsia Teng-Hung, with a guest appearance by Ruby Lin (producer and leading actress of Light the Night). 

    Untitled 2

    To produce a crime and mystery thriller of such intricacy, the production team spent over three years on preparation, adaptation, filming, and post-production. “It’s a pleasure to finally bring what we have worked on for so long to the audience,” said co-director Chang Jung-chi, who won the Taipei Film Awards Best Director for We Are Champions. “Beneath the thriller and detective story lies a story of how humanity struggles between good and evil.”

    While most crime stories focus on details of the cases, Copycat Killer casts a wider net. “We hope to portray more facets of each character and their thoughts and reflections within an intriguing narrative,” explained co-director Henri Chang, who earned six Golden Bell nominations for Hate the Sin, Love the Sinner. “While the story begins with ‘evil’ as we know it, there is a lot more to reflect on and take away from the series.”

    A co-production between Greener Grass Production and Nan Fang Film Productions, this gripping series is helmed by award-winning producers Hank Tseng and Phil Tang. “Copycat Killer depicts a story of how desires, when out of control, can cause evil to go viral in a city,” said Tseng. “We hope that the confluence and fluidity of good and evil in the series will be able to provide healing to our viewers in this world of madness, where a lot more can be done to help and support each other.”
