Jonathan Eusebio, a recognized choreographer and stunt coordinator in the film industry, makes his directorial debut with the action movie 'Love Hurts,' starring Ke Huy Quan. Publimetro interviewed the director about the premiere of the film's first trailer.
Part of the filming process was relatively easy for Eusebio, as he has extensive experience in the action world. The question arose about what the best script would be to show his passion for action movies, and he found the answer in a script that included fights and details reflecting the styles he has perfected over the years.
Eusebio emphasizes that everything he has done in his career has contributed to the making of 'Love Hurts.' From his beginnings as an actor to becoming a second-unit action director, each previous experience has been invaluable to this project. Working together with a great team made the process fun and enriching for him.
As both a fight choreographer and director, Eusebio comments that his extensive background in the action world provided a solid foundation for working on this film. His focus on the realism of combat scenes has been a hallmark of his career and is reflected in 'Love Hurts.'
Eusebio's directorial debut has presented new challenges, realizing that he is now responsible for setting the rules of the game in the filmmaking process. Although this process has been different from what he was used to as a coordinator or second-unit director, he highlights the importance of collaboration for the project to come to life in the best possible way.
The director shows enthusiasm for the reception of the trailer and eagerly anticipates the release of 'Love Hurts' in February 2025. For Eusebio, this film represents a culmination of years of hard work in the film industry, a project where he has been able to showcase his skills and passion for action in a unique way. The opportunity to direct Ke Huy Quan, whom he has admired since childhood, has been a highlight of his career, and he hopes the audience enjoys the film as much as he enjoyed working on it.
