Mario Maurer, the Thai heartthrob is back in the Philippines to promote his movie, “Pee Mak,” Thailand’s all-time highest grossing local movie with $33 million ticket sales during its theatrical run. The movie will be distributed by Star Cinema locally in the Philippines.
During an interview with ABS-CBN, Mario admitted that he was surprised with the movie’s success and he never thought it would be successful. According to the Thai actor, the people were very crazy about the movie, and it has never happened before.
The movie “Pee Mak” is a horror-comedy movie that tells the story of Mae Nak (Davide Hoome), a woman who, beyond death, continues to make her love felt by her clueless husband, Pee Mak (Mario Maurer). The movie was produced by GTH Productions in Thailand and directed by Banjong Pisanthanukan.
The 24-yar-old actor revealed that the reasons why there are many people in Thailand lined up for it, because, “the whole movie is funny but it is still romantic. It’s not just my success. I think it’s for the whole team, everybody made the movie perfect.” Mario stated.
The Mario Maurer movie, Pee Mak, will open in theaters in the Philippines on August 28. Aside from promoting the movie, Mario also attended a fan conference organized by local clothing brand, Penshoppe, in which he was a proud endorser. Mario was also joined in the conference by Thai actress, Baifern Pimchanok, a fellow Penshoppe endorser.
