JAKARTA - Bumilangit's third film, Virgo & Theployings is ready to enliven the competition for films that will air in March. Directed by Ody Harahap, this film is expected to bring something different from its two predecessor films.
"Departing from the adaptation and film of teenage children of superhero bands and producers, they do not recognize it because based is from the characters," said Ody Harahap at a press conference on Tuesday, February 28.
"It's full of colors, comedy, basically out of a different mood than the others. I don't want to betray the webtoon so we padukan and everything is based on characters. There is no benchmark," explained Ody.
Production carried out during the pandemic made the players have to adapt to filming and the process, but it was recognized as bringing Virgo & Theplownings into a different dish. This was stated by several players in this film.
"It's easier because we bring their energy and I've produced one production with Zara (Adhisty Zara). Their energy that makes us young is very exciting and the shooting atmosphere is fresher," said Irgi Fahrezi.
These children really have a hard worker character. So this is what makes me excited. An energetic film brings home the impression of enthusiasm to the home," added Widi Mulia.
Virgo & Theployings appeared with different packaging from the previous Bumilangit films: Gundala and Sri Asih. Apart from that, Joko Anwar as a producer said that the three had a common thread.
"BCU has an inherent power in the archipelago. We are trying to return to the roots. Our culture is mythology, so we don't approach sci-fi but mythology," said Joko Anwar.
"Later there will be a common thread that draws conclusions and similarities in strength," added another.
Virgo & Theployings tells the story of Riani (Adhisty Zara) and her three friends trying to save the world after all teenagers experience dissipation. The third action can be seen through the film Virgo & Theployings which will air from March 2 in all Indonesian cinema networks.
