He also has started a new project that will be announced next year.</p><p>“I finished a Netflix project. We did that naman ‘yung <em>Paskong Pinoy</em> that will air in the first week of December,” he added. “We also have a Taiwanese project. It&#x27;s a collaboration between Singapore, Taiwan and the Philippines. I don&#x27;t know yet kung saan siya lalabas but I’m hoping it’s gonna be around the film festival (season).”</p><p>“I&#x27;m finishing now another Netflix film but I think it&#x27;s gonna be for next year,” he teased.</p><p>Speaking of working on an international project, Enchong shared his experience working on the psychological horror film <em>The Sacrifice</em> along with Lovi Poe, Max Collins, Pokwang, Tommy Alejandrino, director Lav Diaz and Hollywood actors Timothy Granaderos (<em>13 Reasons Why</em>) and Louie Chapman (<em>Chasers</em>).</p><p>“We finished <em>The Sacrifice </em>last year. I’m hoping that we can show it this year. Sobrang excited na ako,” Enchong said.</p><p>Beyond the project itself, Enchong also said how excited he was working with award-winning director Lav Diaz as a co-star as well as learning from the Hollywood actors on the set.</p><p>“It&#x27;s amazing kasi parang I can joke with the Lav Diaz, that&#x27;s one, but also at the same time  I got to work with American actors who have a very different culture and have a very different system when they are shooting films,” Enchong expressed.</p><div><br/></div><iframe class="instagram-media instagram-media-rendered" id="instagram-embed-15" src="https://www.instagram.com/reel/DJlG3d8BTIM/embed/?cr=1&amp;v=14&amp;wp=485&amp;rd=https%3A%2F%2Fod2-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com&amp;rp=%2F#%7B%22ci%22%3A15%2C%22os%22%3A3006696.8999996185%7D" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="880" data-instgrm-payload-id="instagram-media-payload-15" scrolling="no" style="background:white;max-width:540px;width:calc(100% - 2px);border-radius:3px;border:1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219);box-shadow:none;display:block;margin:0px 0px 12px;min-width:326px;padding:0px"></iframe><script async="" src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script><div><br/></div><div><a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/showbiz/movies-series/2025/6/20/lovi-poe-s-horror-film-the-sacrifice-reveals-star-studded-cast-1530" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>READ: Lovi Poe’s horror film &#x27;The Sacrifice&#x27; reveals star-studded cast</strong></a><strong></strong></div><p>For Enchong, the experience allowed him to see how, despite coming from different backgrounds and culture, all the actors have their passion and love for acting.</p><p>“I&#x27;m so excited kasi kahit saan ka nanggaling, kapag seryoso ka sa ginagawa ninyo, pareho ‘yung professionalism, pareho ‘yung pagpapahalaga ninyo sa craftsmanship. So I’m really happy that I got to work with actors from different countries,” he stated.</p><p>Reflecting on the growing number of international collaborations involving Filipino artists, Enchong believes the country already has the talent to compete globally but needs stronger industry support.</p><p>“The Philippines has the talent. No questions. No brainer. We have the talent but we need support,” Enchong stated.</p><div><br/></div><iframe class="instagram-media instagram-media-rendered" id="instagram-embed-16" src="https://www.instagram.com/reel/DQTVQpfESks/embed/?cr=1&amp;v=14&amp;wp=485&amp;rd=https%3A%2F%2Fod2-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com&amp;rp=%2F#%7B%22ci%22%3A16%2C%22os%22%3A3007577.5%7D" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="856" data-instgrm-payload-id="instagram-media-payload-16" scrolling="no" style="background:white;max-width:540px;width:calc(100% - 2px);border-radius:3px;border:1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219);box-shadow:none;display:block;margin:0px 0px 12px;min-width:326px;padding:0px"></iframe><script async="" src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script><div><br/></div><div><a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/showbiz/movies-series/2025/5/20/-13-reasons-why-actor-timothy-granaderos-shares-first-ph-shooting-experience-for-the-sacrifice-1607" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>READ: ‘13 Reasons Why’ actor Timothy Granaderos shares first PH shooting experience for ‘The Sacrifice’</strong></a><strong></strong></div><p>He also welcomed the decision to lower Metro Manila Film Festival ticket prices, saying the move could encourage more audiences to return to cinemas and support local films.</p><p>“I&#x27;m really happy because I just saw na MMDA just announced that the Metro Manila Film Festival will be at 299 pesos only and I was just relieved finally. That&#x27;s a really big support for the film industry,” he added.</p><p>As for whether he will have an entry in this year&#x27;s MMFF, Enchong remains hopeful.</p><p>“I&#x27;m hoping.
