The announcement came directly from the film studio.
On Saturday, January 11, ABS-CBN’s film production outfit Star Cinema released a statement regarding ‘My Love Will Make You Disappear,’ which will be topbilled by Kim Chiu and Paulo Avelino.
According to SC, “[as] part of Star Cinema’s commitment to bringing Philippine films to a global audience, we are excited to announce the new playdate for the much-anticipated romantic-comedy ‘My Love Will Make You Disappear’…”
It revealed that the movie will hit theaters worldwide starting March 26, 2025.
“The move comes in light of new developments and exciting opportunities to expand into the Morth American market,” disclosing that they have reached a partnership with global theatrical distributor Abramorama and entertainment marketing firm Amorette Jones.
Star Cinema said that this collaboration was reached as both firms “believe in the film’s universal appeal that can captivate a broader audience.”
This statement from the Kapamilya movie outfit comes a day after lead star Paulo Avelino posted a cryptic message on his personal account on X, formerly Twitter.
There, he wrote: “Ma-experience nga na hindi tumapos ng pelikula,” coupled with a laughing emoji.
While he did not mention any names or projects, his fans were quick to allude this post to Avelino’s upcoming first movie with actress Kim Chiu.
‘My Love Will Make You Disappear’ was initially slated to hit theaters last October 2024, before it was rescheduled to become a Valentine’s Day offering of Star Cinema this year.
A playdate of February 12, 2025 was announced by ABS-CBN during the ‘Shine Kapamilya’ Christmas special last December, with a teaser trailer released concurrently that time.
However, as the February premiere date neared, many ‘KimPau’ supporters noticed the lack of promotional activities for ‘MLWMYD’.
Although, in an report by ABS-CBN News this week, it was disclosed that Kim and Paulo are still in the process of shooting scenes for the said movie.
It was also only revealed earlier this week that the playdate had been moved, after a cinema chain posted a now-deleted poster that indicated a tentative April 2025 release of the movie.
‘My Love Will Make You Disappear’ will mark the reunion of Kim Chiu and Paulo Avelino, who topbilled in the top-rated series ‘Linlang’ back in 2023.
They went on to do a follow-up project, the successful Filipino adaptation of ‘What’s Wrong With Secretary Kim?’ that began streaming on Viu in March 2024.
‘MLWMYD’ is under the direction of Chad Vidanes.
