Brillante Mendoza’s latest film project, Chameleon, has been picked up by London-based SC Films International for worldwide sales ahead of the Cannes market.
Chameleon stars veteran Japanese actor Eiji Okuda ( The Pianist, Like a Rolling Stone) as Yakuza boss Shimamura, alongside Tsuyoshi Ihara ( 13 Assassins, Letters From Iwo Jima), Rina Takeda ( Attack on Titan) and Shogen (Gensan Punch). “This powerful comeback film is deeply rooted in Mendoza’s unique vision, shedding light on the untold stories of Filipinos who came to Japan in the early 2000s with hopes and dreams of a better life. Following our successful collaboration on Gensan Punch, an HBO Original that won acclaim at the Busan International Film Festival, we are proud to continue supporting Brillante’s bold storytelling on the global stage.”
