Deva Mahenra Challenged To Play A Ghost Character In Ghost Writer 2

Deva Mahenra (VOI)

JAKARTA - The Ghost Writer film continues with a sequel directed by Muhadkly Acho. In this film, the character of Deva Mahenra also develops from an ordinary human into a ghost.

Deva admitted that this was her first time acting as a ghost but in the end she wanted to try something new.

"When I was convinced, I wasn't sure. This is my first time playing an invisible creature. I think that acting has a wide spectrum,” said Deva Mahenra at the Ghost Writer 2 press conference on Tuesday, July 12.

He also continued the ghost character previously played by Ge Pamungkas. Apart from that, Deva Mahenra is facing a big challenge.

"When I offered him the ghost role, I finally agreed because there's no harm in trying something new. And the approach that Ge and I use is different,” explained Deva Mahenra.

Deva Mahenra plays Vino, an FTV actor who starts getting a film project. But on one occasion, Vino had an accident that made him die.

“When Vino was offered, it was his character in the real world. In Ghost Writer 2, when he could be a FTV-style actor, there was a transition. That's what I finally had time to try to be considered. The playroom is really big,” said Deva Mahenra.

"Because it's a big challenge, that's why I'm ready. Vino is the same as me, so empathy for his character is very easy with the personal provisions I have, making Vino believable," he added.

Ghost Writer 2 tells the story of Naya (Tatjana Saphira) who experiences difficulties after the success of her first book. He is considered a shaman by the public so he wants to delete that image.

Ghost Writer 2 will be released in Indonesian cinemas starting July 21, 2022.
