For her next project, Alexa Miro dreams of taking on roles she hasn’t tried yet to hone her acting skills, such as action, suspense or psychological thrillers.
I had an interesting conversation with actress Alexa Miro on “The Interviewer,” which can be viewed on my YouTube channel. She recently starred in “Strange Frequencies: Taiwan Killer Hospital.”
It was originally planned as an exploration among celebrity friends inside Xinglin Hospital, the most haunted place in Taiwan, for a vlog on YouTube. It eventually morphed into a movie since footage from the supernatural expedition turned out well.
“It’s a meta found footage horror film, so we didn’t have any script. We were just instructed to explore. Whatever you see in the movie, that’s what actually happened in real life,” Alexa revealed. The actress had a paranormal experience on the first day of the shoot. A spirit crept on her arm and went around her back and neck. “Parang sumakay siya sa akin and we were inside the van.” Alexa’s companions fervently prayed until her scary ordeal ended.
For her next project, Alexa dreams of taking on roles she hasn’t tried yet to hone her acting skills. “Pangarap ko po sa susunod mga action, suspense, or psychological thrillers. To be an advocate of mental health awareness. I always see myself as someone who would have an array of trophies. I want to be a household name respected for my craft like Meryl Streep.”
She admires Angel Locsin as a brilliant actress and staunch advocate. “She’s an angel in real life, which is also what I want to be as an actress and individual.”
The young actress shared what she likes and dislikes about being in the industry during the interview. “We get to escape reality and portray a more colorful life if ever we want to escape from time to time.” Alexa gets to experience other lives by playing various characters but it’s difficult for her who to trust in the business but I told her that some stars find their closest and most trusted friends in the industry.
Alexa said she is now comfortable dealing with controversies that are part of showbiz. She considers being linked to Rep. Sandro Marcos as the toughest one so far. They belong to the same group of friends. “Hindi talaga siya nanligaw sa akin,” Alexa claimed. But she laughed meaningfully when I asked her if the young politician was making his feelings felt. According to Alexa, she has high respect for Rep. Sandro. She already met the First Couple at a party at Bahay Pangulo.
Is she ready to be the wife of a politician if it happens in the future? “Why not, Tito Boy? I also love to help people and if I’m given a chance, I would really love to do that,” Alexa replied.
