Roar in laughter with ‘My Illegal Wife’

CEBU, Philippines - Skylight Films brings together Zanjoe Marudo and Pokwang in “My Illegal Wife” – the most hilarious family comedy that will culminate the second quarter of 2014.

Zanjoe and Pokwang are considered as the king and queen of Skylight Films because of the success of their respective movies in 2013. Zanjoe starred in the Wenn V. Deramas comedy “Bromance” where he played dual roles of identical twins with two different genders.

Pokwang, on the other hand, made waves in her crazy role in Don Cuaresma’s “Call Center Girl” where she portrayed the role of Teresa – a mother who goes all-out to win back the affections of her estranged daughter.

“My Illegal Wife” marks another big-screen team-up of Zanjoe and Pokwang after “Cinco.” Directed by Tony Y. Reyes, who was at the helm of hits like Star Cinema’s “Enteng Ng Ina Mo,” “My Illegal Wife” is about a loving single mom Clarise (Pokwang) who will do anything and everything to make her family happy even if it means that she does an outrageous feat such as tricking Papa Henry (Zanjoe) – a hot stud suffering from amnesia – into believing that that he is legally married to her.

The film is not only a laugh-a-minute comedy for the entire family but it is also a heartwarming story that explores the limitless boundaries of true and lasting love. Moviegoers can look forward to a zany and wacky movie experience with the hysterical tandem of Z and Powkie plus the inimitable comedy of Direk Tony.

It also assembles some of the country’s comedians such as Empoy Marquez, Joy Viado, Pooh, Edgar Allan Guzman, Beauty Gonzalez and Ms. Anita Linda along with up-and-coming stars Mikylla Ramirez, Steven De Guzman, and introducing the desirable Ellen Adarna.

“My Illegal Wife” opens in cinemas nationwide starting this Wednesday, June 11. (PR)(FREEMAN)
