Cameras have started to roll for Star Cinema’s upcoming family drama Rewind starring superstar couple Dingdong Dantes and Marian Rivera.

On Instagram, Dingdong shared photos from their first day of shooting with the other cast members of Rewind, including Coney Reyes, Joross Gamboa, Ariel Ureta, and Ina Feleo.

“Day one with my ‘leading lady’ on and off-cam, alongside this incredibly talented, fun cast, in a film directed by Mae Cruz,” Dingdong wrote in his post.

Director Mae Cruz Alviar also shared a photo from the set of Rewind.

“First day high!!! #Rewind @marianrivera @dongdantes,” she wrote.

Rewind is an official entry to this year’s Metro Manila Film Festival. The film is co-produced by Star Cinema with APT Entertainment and Dingdong’s Agosto Dos Media.

Rewind marks Marian’s first time working with Direk Mae. “Sobrang excited [ako maka-work ang Star Cinema], at the same time, si Direk [Mae]. Kasi si Dong ang daming kuwento tungkol sa kanya. So sabi ko kay Dong, sana balang araw ma-direct din niya ako,” the actress said.

“Punong-puno ng pangarap ‘yung mga kwento ni Dong sa akin every time may Star Cinema siya. So sabi ko, sana balang araw.”

On what fans can expect from their latest project, Dingdong said, “Ito yung klaseng pelikula at kwento [na] ‘yung gusto naming ibahagi sa mga manonood. Very, very true to form dahil it is a family movie. It has a very big heart and may touch of magic realism. So many elements na magsasabing talagang pampamilya.”

Alviar — who directed the blockbuster films Unbreakable and Crazy Beautiful You — also expressed her excitement to work with Dingdong and Marian.

“I am so excited. This is a really exciting project and I am looking forward to working with Dong and Yan,” she said.

“This project was first offered noong 2020 pa. But because the pandemic happened, we didn’t know if this was gonna go through pa kasi nga we were afraid to work and all. And then ito, matutuloy na siya, so parang feeling ko meant to be. Part nung excitement na alam mong ang tagal and yet here we are, launching this project. In God’s perfect time talaga,” she added.
