The 43-year-old host-actress clarified that this is not a sequel and this time, the story will revolve around Coco Martin&#x27;s character. “Ako yung ahente na nagbenta ng bahay sa mga magulang ni Coco. Basta sabihin na lang natin na i-wa-warn ko si Coco na may kapalit yan, yung bagwa. Di ba lahat ng suwerte ngayon may kapalit? At doon mararanasan niya lahat ng naranasan ko rin sa unang movie. This is not part two, kasi sabi ni direk Chito Rono ayaw niya talaga gumawa ng sequel. Ang gusto niya continuation of the story. Actually kailangan ko aminin na si Coco Martin may idea. Nung Juan Dela Cruz presscon sinabi niya na gusto niya mag-horror at nagustuhan niya ang Feng Shui. Nabasa ko yun. Atribida ako so I texted direk Chito, I asked if he was interested and he said of course kasi gustong gusto niya makatrabaho si Coco,” she admitted.</div><div> </div><div>From the original cast, Kris said only Cherry Pie Picache, Jonee Gamboa, and Lotus Feet will be reprising their roles. Other new members of the cast include Carmi Martin, Joem Bascon, and Ian Veneracion. Kris said she is also excited to work again with direk Chito whom Coco first thought was a scary director. “Hindi siya masungit. I’ll defend him. He’ll love Coco kasi sobrang professional si direk. Ang rules lang niya bawal ang cellphone on the set, when you’re on the set dapat naka-focus ka na 100%, bawal ang maingay so hirap na hirap ako dun sa bawal ang maingay (laughs). Tapos yung bawal magdala ng ibang trabaho kasi dapat galangin mo na kung ano character mo dadalhin mo. Pero parang si Coco naman yun eh, parang tailor-made naman sa kanya yung characterization,” she explained. </div><div> </div><div>After starring in popular horror films like Sukob, Dalaw, and Segunda Mano, Kris said she has nothing but high hopes for Feng Shui 2. “I don’t feel pressured (laughs) kasi parang sobra yung kumpiyansa ko kay direk Chito, yung kumpiyansa ko dun sa material. Yung script kasi excited silang lahat, sobra nilang pinapaganada. Tapos lahat naman ng mga death scenes, kasi yun naman yung mga inaabangan natin, I know it’s going to Christmas [dahil MMFF] pero para maiba naman, ang bobongga. Ang ganda, nakakatuwa. I think also kasi ang horror also needs to appeal to the male audience at yun yung dadalhin ni Coco. Parang yun yung pinagdadaanan din ng mga kalalakihan. Kasi sanay tayo sa mga babaeng tumitili pero ano kaya yung lalake na ang sinusubukan?” she admitted. Filming for the Star Cinema MMFF film entry is set to start end of August.</div><div> </div><div>When asked if there will be a love angle between her and Coco in the movie, Kris said they will not have any romantic connection. “Wala, meron siyang girlfriend. May boyfriend ako, wow (laughs). Sa movie may boyfriend ako. Buhay siya (laughs),” she added.</div><div> </div>
