Dingdong Dantes And Marian Rivera To Attend Special “Remember” Screenings In Southern California

Two of the Philippines’ biggest stars and real-life couple Dingdong Dantes and Marian Rivera, will meet moviegoers in Southern California at special screenings of their family drama “Remember” on November 14 and 15.

The screenings will take place at Cinemark Baldwin Hills Crenshaw in Los Angeles on November 14 and Cinemark Huntington Beach on November 15, giving audiences a chance to watch the film and meet its lead stars in person.

Directed by Mae Cruz-Alviar and filmed in Quebec, Canada, the movie tells a story of love, family, and second chances. Dingdong and Marian play Joseph and Ria, a couple who have grown apart but must come together when their daughter, played by Zia Grace, is diagnosed with a rare genetic illness.

As they spend time together as a family, memories of their past resurface, leading them to confront their differences and rediscover the love they once shared.

For Dingdong and Marian, the project also fulfilled a longtime dream: making a film together outside the Philippines.

“We’ve long dreamed of working on something outside the country, especially a film. Quebec and this story turned out to be the perfect fit because the project brought so many firsts for us,” Dingdong said, speaking in Filipino.(" Matagal na namin pangarap na gumawa ng anything outside the country, much more a film. Kaya naging perfect din yung Quebec at saka yung kuwento dahil ang daming first para sa amin.")

Marian shared that accepting the project was initially difficult because it meant being away from their children. Seeing the trailer, however, reminded her why she wanted to tell the story.

“When I watched the trailer, I became very emotional. It feels wonderful to make a film that is close to your heart and share it with fellow Filipinos. Our mission is to give you hope, whatever you may be going through,” she said in Filipino. ("Nung napanood ko yung trailer, talagang naging emotional ako. Ang sarap gumawa ng isang pelikula na malapit sa puso mo na ma-o-offer mo sa kapwa Pilipino mo. Ang misyon namin, mabigyan kayo ng hope at pag-asa, kung ano man ang pinagdadaanan niyo.")

“Remember” opens in theaters across the United States, Canada, and Guam starting November 13, following its Philippine opening on November 11. Screenings in the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Bahrain, Australia, and New Zealand begin November 12.
