The Hollywood red carpet is about to be rolled out for Jericho Rosales, whose film, “Subject I Love You,” will be screened at the Newport Beach Film Festival in Orange County in southern California at the end of the month.
Echo, as Rosales is fondly called in show business, could barely contain his excitement when talking about his movie, which will be screened alongside numerous films from around the world.
“Subject I Love You” is the only film from the Philippines that will be shown by Hollywood distributors.
Echo hopes this is another opportunity for Filipinos to make a mark in the international scene.
Echo added that gaining recognition in Hollywood has long been a dream for him, a dream he shared with “The Hunks” members earlier in their showbiz careers.
“The Hunks” was an all-male group composed of ABS-CBN matinee idols Rosales, Diether Ocampo, Carlos Agassi, Piolo Pascual and Bernard Palanca.
While the actor admits he is already feeling the jitters of the festival premiere, he is confident that “Subject I Love You” has a captivating story to tell that will catch the attention of the American audience.
The movie is a love story revolving around the “love” computer virus, which was developed by a Filipino that sent computer firms in a huge frenzy at the beginning of the decade.
Rosales shared he is already preparing to meet with Hollywood distributors.
Meanwhile, Rosales, who is now unattached, said he is not bringing a date to the red carpet event.
While the young actor may be solo on the love front for now, he hopes he will not be alone in supporting the movie as he asks for the support and presence of our kababayans abroad.
“Subject I Love You” will be screened on April 30 in Newport Beach, California.
