A week ago, Pham Thoai announced the short film "Chuyen Menh", which he had invested a lot of effort into over the past few months. The project was starred in and produced by him.
On October 5, Pham Thoai announced information about the cast including People's Artist Kim Xuan, Meritorious Artist My Duyen, Quang Minh, Quynh Luong, Steven Nguyen, and Huu Dang.
Regarding inviting famous artists to act in the film, Pham Thoai shared: "Many artists were worried that my acting in the film would cause a stir, so at first, I was rejected a lot. This cannot be blamed on anyone, everyone has their own reasons.
When I received approval from Ms. Kim Xuan, Ms. My Duyen, Mr. Quang Minh, Mr. Huu Dang, Ms. Quynh Luong and Mr. Steven Nguyen, I was truly relieved and happy.
Everyone worked with me to create high-quality, vivid footage. My crew and I tried to bring the beauty of Hue's culture and people into the project.
In addition to the love story, the film also praises the homeland, bringing to the screen the most beautiful footage of the ancient and quiet land of Hue.
Meanwhile, co-producer Loi Vo said: "We work seriously, the film is carefully polished and has the participation of good actors who are dedicated to their profession.
Pham Thoai may be noisy on livestream but when it comes to the film industry, you work extremely hard. This project is all taken on by talented actors, so during the working process, we try to create a comfortable, fun environment so that everyone can freely create."
As for Quynh Luong, the actress was quite excited to participate in the project "Chuyen Menh". She revealed that she accepted the role as soon as Pham Thoai invited her.
"I'm a straightforward person so I quite like Pham Thoai's personality. Moreover, this project also has Steven Nguyen, who is also an acquaintance of mine. Isn't it fun to film with a lot of intimacy?"
"Fate" is set in the ancient land of Hue with its unique cultural features. The film explores the theme of time travel and historical costumes, and is expected to have 10 episodes, released in October.
