In a previous statement, Kris announced that she has landed a role in an upcoming Hollywood film.
“A Tony & Grammy award winning Broadway producer, Jhett Tolentino, contacted me through Cong. Len Alonte and Manang Nene Chan. He was helping a Filipino-Chinese-American agent friend of his reach me to ask if I'd want to audition for a big Hollywood studio movie about to start filming. The pressure was I had to submit my reel in 72 hrs. I felt I had nothing to lose, so we went for it... I passed 5 levels of intense scrutiny and was offered a role,” she said.
Kris added, “It is surreal to be reading the script from a major Hollywood studio watermarked on every page with my name... I wanted you to know my story... I pray it gives you encouragement & hope. I am proof that in life doors will shut and there will be heartbreaking setbacks but FAITH in God's plan will open new, unexpected doors.”
