Enchong Dee shared what fans can expect from him as he welcomes 2024, saying his first ever international movie will start filming next year.

“Parang mayroong regalo na si Lord sa akin for next year already. Lagi ko lang sinasabi na, alam mo ‘yun, every year, may bago kang magagawa, may bago kang mae-experience. I think it’s safe to say kasi nasabi ko naman ito sa ibang interview, but I will shoot my first international film in February,” he told the press at the recent birthday party he attended.

When asked which other stars he will be starring next to, the Kapamilya actor remained tight-lipped, noting that he can only share that there will be a film, but the other details will remain under wraps.

“Hindi ko alam kung puwede ko na siyang ma-share. Pero nung last time na nag-interbyu kami sa L.A., yun yung nabanggit ko na sabi niya, ‘Yeah, I think you can share it that we will do a film next year.’” he said.

According to the actor, they just waited for the SAG-AFTRA strike to be over before they could finalize the lineup for the movie.

“Parang hinintay lang namin na matapos yung actors’ strike. Kasi kakatapos lang, di ba? Finally, dahil tapos na siya, we can start onboarding SAG actors,” the actor shared.

Dee affirmed how excited he is for the international project: “Sobra po akong excited. Parang feeling ko, yun ang highlight ng next year.”

The 35-year-old actor also revealed that he is currently setting aside TV projects so he can prioritize doing more movies, like his Metro Manila Film Festival (MMFF) entry “GomBurZa.”

“Hindi muna ako tumatanggap ng TV (projects) para lang makagawa pa ako ng mas maraming pelikula. Para lang hindi ka lang naka-focus sa isang project. Pero kung maganda naman ang script, game naman akong bumalik sa TV,” said Dee.

When asked about his Christmas plans, he said he would focus first on promoting his MMFF movie, then start taking a vacation.

“Magiging busy lang sa MMFF. Pero after ng Pasko, baka naman makakapagbakasyon na ako. Focus lang sa work ngayon,” the actor shared.
