Kris Aquino

Actress and Queen of Talk Kris Aquino said she is giving up films for a while to focus on her ailing mother, former President Corazon Aquino.

Kris was supposed to be shooting a Metro Manila Film Festival entry for ABS-CBN’s Star Cinema with a working title “Ika Na Nga.”

Aquino said she already sent a letter to Star Cinema explaining why she can’t do the film.

“Unfortunately, because of our family circumstances now. I can’t do the film wherein I’m supposed to be one of the star for the festival. There. Things happen. So I hope there will be another opportunity in the future,” Kris said.

Kris and her family is now busy looking after Madam Cory, who is still confined at the Makati Medical Center due to colon cancer.
