KC Concepcion Reveals Why She Accepted ‘Asian Persuasion’ Project

KC Concepcion talked about her first Hollywood film

Actress-entrepreneur KC Concepcion revealed the reason why she decided to accept the Asian Persuasion movie project.

It was previously revealed that the role of the female lead was first offered to actress-host Toni Gonzaga but due to schedule conflict, she turned down this offer. Then, the role was offered to KC with the help of her mother Megastar Sharon Cuneta.

In a recent Instagram post, KC shared that they already finished filming. However, their work does not stop there. “Now the hard work begins. And YOU can help bring our movie to the FINISH LINE,” KC Concepcion said.

The actress-entrepreneur also shared why she accepted the offer for this movie. KC’s first reason is that she grew up not seeing a Filipino who looked like her, or other girls like her, on American TV or in Hollywood films.

She also shared that having an acting job in America was not the basis why she said yes. “Having the chance to be part of this Asian-American romantic comedy as a FILIPINA means MORE to me than just getting an acting job in America,” the Pinay actress said.

For KC, through this film, she is just representing Asian actors who have been dreaming of this kind of opportunity in Hollywood. The actress also shared the general concept of Asian Persuasion.

This movie is about family, relationships, love, failures, resilience, success, and fighting for what you love. That’s why this story is YOURS, as much as it is mine,” she said. KC Concepcion also asked the people to support this movie through the financial help that they could extend to “bring it to the finish line!!!”

We can’t do this without you. ANY amount would help— but most importantly, as we aspire to see our stories, our faces, our languages, our music, our talent, our skill, and our cultures, we can come together right now… one Asian project at a time,” the actress said.
