Liza Soberano wraps up filming for upcoming Hollywood film 'Lisa Frankenstein'
That's a wrap!
Liza Soberano has finished filming for her first ever Hollywood movie project Lisa Frankenstein.
In her Instagram stories on Saturday, Sept. 17, the Filipina actress posted a selfie with a bouquet of flowers as she announced the news. "It’s our last day. Thank you @zeldawilliams," she wrote in the caption. Zelda Williams served as the movie director, making it the producer-writer's feature-length directorial debut.
She also reposted a snap with her co-stars, which was initially shared by Kathryn Newton, who plays the role of Lisa in the upcoming film.
Fans couldn't contain their excitement for Soberano's first appearance in an American flick. She even made it to the top trending topics on Twitter Philippines shortly after her quick announcement on social media.
"Congrats, Hopie, on your first Hollywood film! Can't wait to see Taffy," a netizen wrote.
"Taray ni (Liza), Hollywood production film na ang kasama. I'm glad she gets to experience this," another one tweeted.
Written by Diablo Cody, the American horror-comedy-romance film stars Newton and Cole Sprouse. Soberano plays the role of Taffy, the step-sister of Lisa. A photo of the ABS-CBN actress with her co-stars, including Newton and Sprouse, circulated just recently on social media.

Lisa Frankenstein marks the local star's big break as she hopes to pursue a career in Hollywood. In her first US interview in May, she said: "It has always been a dream of mine to be able to work out here so I'm really happy, I'm really excited, and it's an honor."
Soberano is also looking to serve as an inspiration for younger Filipinos who also have big dreams for themselves. “My personal goal is to be able to bridge the gap between the Philippines and America and help the younger generation, little girls, who also dream of coming out here and make a career for themselves and I wanna make it easier for them when they do that in the future and if it that means me taking the first leap, then so be it.”
