And just like that, she’s back in Hollywood as we speak.
But midway through this week, we had a quick sit down with Liza Soberano at her BYS endorsement event in Taguig alongside Niana Guerrero. Liza looked more relaxed, comfortable, and eager to share what she has been up to since major things have been going her way since the last time we saw her last summer.
“I have a pretty big announcement coming soon at the end of the year. I will say that I have one series, one reality show, and one movie that I’m working on right now,” she said.
I know fans have been eagerly waiting for her next big screen role after her impactful portrayal as Taffy in “Lisa Frankenstein,” and she is, too.
“I’ve been very, very busy, but I’m actually so excited to get back into actual filming work,” she shared.
What I can tell you is, we all know Hollywood is no easy journey and Liza has been making sure that she is planting the right seeds to be in the industry for the long haul. Patience, strategy and persistence are what Liza is showing. Landing the next big project is not a walk in the park, but she soldiers on.
“I’ve been taking in also a lot of auditions,” she said.

As she should! Liza said that she is not stopping with her plans to represent the country in Tinseltown.
Right now, Liza is sharpening her skills in acting, learning from the 12-time Best Acting Coach in the business.
“I’ve been taking acting classes. I’ve been very busy with that, and I’m taking that four times a week with this amazing acting coach named Alex Taylor.”
Wow! The Taylor Studio of Alex Taylor is actually one of the top five acting schools in Hollywood.
According to his profile, Alex is the youngest acting teacher to have worked with legendary acting teacher Sanford Meisner. He was in the last class to work with Meisner before Meisner’s death in 1997. So, Liza is learning the Meisner approach, wherein actors do not focus on themselves and instead concentrate on the other actors in the immediate environment. It is one of the most prevalent techniques in Hollywood today.
What is more significant about Liza’s acting school is that she is also working with the same acting coach as Johnny Depp, Jessica Lange, Meg Ryan, and Mickey Rourke. Okay, Liza! Good move! We see where this one is going.
Given that Liza has been around and has deep roots in the Philippine scene, she said that all that she is doing is for her Filipino fans, “Like with anything, I have been hands-on. I’ve been setting up businesses in L.A. and my production company.”
Like the creative that she is, Liza has been collaborating with international producers.
“I am the Philippine producer, but I am also working with people from L.A. and people from Korea,” said she.
Another major life update, too, is that finally, Liza has already moved into her own apartment in Los Angeles. We even played around with the idea of an apartment tour, to which she made the most sensible reply. “Hindi ko alam! Nakakatakot mag-apartment tour doon, buti kung dito sa Pinas! Okay lang sa Pinas kasi safe baka may kidnapper na pumasok kapag doon! hahahaha!”
See you when we see you next time, Liza.
