She said: “Pang third movie ko na po kasi this year ‘yun if ever, so I really felt that I needed a break.”
Nadine starred in the 2019 movies “Ulan” together with Carlo Aquino, and “Indak” with Sam Concepcion.
Nadine also mentioned how she wanted to focus on herself and her health as she thinks she might not be able to commit to the movie, considering the promotion events apart from shooting the film.
Nadine said: “Since it’s an MMFF Film, parang naisip ko na baka maging masyado ng hectic ‘yung schedule, mahihirapan din po ako na, at the end of the day, ayaw ko naman pong parang umayaw, dahil pagod ako at burnout ako.”
“Yes I mean it’s a good project but to say na wala nang darating na magandang project in the future… para sa akin, uunahin ko lang ‘yung sarili ko and health ko,” Nadine added.
When asked about her thoughts on Bela Padilla, replacing her in the movie, Nadine said: “I’m really happy kasi Bela [Padilla] is a good actress, she’s also a good writer and she takes what she does seriously and she loves it and it shows naman po. Okay naman po I’m happy that it’s Bela.”
