Erich Gonzales says she is excited about shooting her movie with Mario Maurer in Thailand.

As her afternoon series Maria la Del Barrio wraps up this month, Erich Gonzales admitted she is already excited to start her next project, a movie titledSuddenly It’s Magic with Thai heartthrob Mario Maurer which will be shot in Manila and Thailand. “Right afterMaria la Del Barrio, tatapusin ko lang yung Corazonand then may Hawaii tour kami for Star Magic. Then I’ll shoot a commercial in Bangkok. And then pagbalik na pagbalik ko, magshu-shoot kami dito muna sa bansa for the movie and then yun sa Bangkok naman kami hanggang sa matapos yung entire film,” she said.

Erich said she is excited at the chance to be able to do a movie abroad for the very first time. “It’s not my first time sa Bangkok dahil pumupunta ako dun for pictorials and other shoots. To work there for a movie, this is my first time. I’m very excited dahil I know for a fact na this is a big project talaga and I’m very thankful to Star Cinema dahil binigyan nila ako ng ganitong pagkakataon. I’m just excited and at the same time yung pressure nafi-feel ko na siya ngayon pa lang. So I’m really hoping na suportahan ng mga tao yung movie na gagawin namin ni Mario,” she told Push.com.ph.

In fact, Erich admitted she has yet to get over the feeling of starring in an international movie project. “Hindi pa talaga sa akin nagsi-sink in totally yung mga nangyayari ngayon, parang ang bilis-bilis, andiyan na kaagad. I'm excited but at the same time pressured din talaga. Yung kaba sobra, kinakabahan talaga ako pero mas kakabahan ako kung hindi ako kakabahan ‘di ba? Iba naman yung ganun kung walang feelings, parang walang pakialam,” she explained.

For Suddenly It’s Magic, Erich divulged that she will take baking lessons and will also learn how to speak in Thai! “I'm going to learn how to bake kasi doon sa story parang owner ako ng isang pastry shop, mga pastriesganyan,” she added.

Although Erich has yet to spend more time with Mario, she was really happy to be paired up with him. “When I met him, sobrang bait nya talaga. Napaka-sincere, napaka-bait and ang cute cute niya! Sobrang charmingtalaga. Walang ka-ere ere and alam ko magiging masaya yung shooting namin. When I met Mario our director was also there also so parang yung time na yun parang bonding na rin kahit konti. Basta pag nag-start yungmovie we’ll get to know each other better pa para wala ng ilangan sa mga scenes,” she told Push.com.ph.

Erich also said that people will enjoy the storyline of Suddenly It’s Magic. “Nung nag-meeting kami, napag-usapan namin yung story. Napakaganda nung story. Love story siya and very light lang. Dito mapapaisip ka ngwhat are you going to choose ba, kumbaga the one you love or your career or dream?” she shared.
