The highly anticipated romantic film Hello, Love, Again will close the 10th Asian World Film Festival. Stars Kathryn Bernardo and Alden Richards are set to attend the screening on Nov. 20 at the Culver Theater in California.
In an announcement shared on its website, the film festival will be opened with the South Korean drama A Normal Family and will culminate with Hello, Love, Again, a sequel to the 2019 hit Hello, Love, Goodbye.
ABS-CBN’s Star Cinema and GMA Pictures’ groundbreaking film collaboration picks up from Joy (Kathryn) and Ethan’s (Alden) respective complexities in their new lives five years after Joy moved to Canada from Hong Kong to pursue her dreams.
As their paths cross again unexpectedly in Canada, will the two get to rekindle their romance and finally get their chance to be together? Or amid their sacrifices and loneliness in a foreign land to provide for their families, will the two OFWs remain ill-fated in love?
Hello, Love, Again is directed by the well-loved rom-com director Cathy Garcia-Sampana, who was also behind Hello, Love, Goodbye.
Among the cast members are Joross Gamboa, Valerie Concepcion, Jennica Garcia, Kevin Kreider, Jobert Austria, Mark Labella, Marvin Aritrangco, and Ruby Rodriguez, to name a few.
