Asian American actor Vanessa Hudgens, who gained stardom with her work in Disney’s High School Musical series, is set to shoot a travel documentary in the Philippines, the country of her mother’s birth. The yet-untitled project will be shot in Palawan and Manila in March. Known for directing Mananita (2019) and Manny Pacquiao biopic Kid Kulafu, Paul Soriano will be helming this project.

The documentary is said to showcase the relationship between Hudgens and her Filipino mother, Gina, who emigrated to the US at the age of 25, as well as Hudgens’ sister, Stella. Since High School Musical, Hudgens has notched up key roles in Spring Breakers, Gimme Shelter, Will Smith`s Bad Boys for Life, and the Oscar-nominated Lin-Manuel Miranda-directed musical Tick, Tick... Boom.
