In director Tran Trong Khoi's new project, Thanh Huong plays a 32-year-old rural woman with a difficult situation, associated with the life of a fishing village. Taking on her mother's role on the small screen this time is NSND Nhu Quynh.
When receiving information about the cast, Thanh Huong said she was surprised by the director's decision to assign roles. The mother character in the script has a sharp personality - a relatively new image compared to the familiar gentle, deep acting style of People's Artist Nhu Quynh.
Besides the innovation in character image, the actress also pays attention to the similarity in appearance between the two artists.
Thanh Huong shared: "Does everyone see that Ms. Nhu Quynh and I look very similar? Round faces are similar, when in the frame, both aunt and niece have dimples that look very similar." This similarity helps the emotional connection between the two mother and daughter characters to take place more smoothly.
The first time working with a senior artist, Thanh Huong admitted that she was initially somewhat hesitant because she was worried that NSND Nhu Quynh might be strict on the film set. However, this hesitation was quickly removed on the first day of filming in a family setting.
The actress said: "Honestly, I used to think she would be difficult. But when I got into the role, I found her very approachable, with no distance at all.
Behind the scenes, the two artists often eat together and talk about their profession and life. Thanks to the openness of People's Artist Nhu Quynh, the joint scenes between the two people take place naturally, without having to rehearse many times.
In addition to acting, Thanh Huong also expressed her impression of the spirit and beauty of People's Artist Nhu Quynh in real life: "She is still very beautiful. Sitting and eating or observing her work, you can see that she maintains her beauty as before.
Currently, the co-shoots of the two artists have just completed the initial stage. Thanh Huong said that in the following segments, the love storyline between the two mothers and daughters will have more psychological developments.
The combination of Thanh Huong's natural acting style and NSND Nhu Quynh's deep acting is expected to create a highlight for the film when it airs.
Thanh Huong added that in 2026 she has participated in 3 TV series: Under the Bright Windows, I Come Here and The Women's Football Team of Spring Village is preparing to air. Regarding the film project, the actress shared about the movie "The Last Bullet" by director Dinh Tuan Vu, which has been cherished for many years and is about to be released.
Thanh Huong's full name is Nguyen Thanh Huong, born in 1988, is one of the prominent faces on prime time television dramas.
Thanh Huong made her mark in the hearts of the public through a series of hit movies such as: "The Judge", "Quynh Doll", "Life is still beautiful", and most recently "One Family".
