Vice Ganda and Nadine Lustre make their highly anticipated reunion in a comedy-drama film about a mother’s unconditional love in “Call Me Mother,” an official entry to the 51st Metro Manila Film Festival, out in cinemas beginning Dec. 25, 2025.
The movie’s official trailer earned a total of 20 million views after more than 24 hours across social media platforms and the hashtag #CallMeMotherFullTrailer was the top trending topic nationwide following the trailer release in early December.
Helmed by Jun Robles Lana, the movie delves into the complexities of unwavering love, commitment and sacrifice throughout motherhood.
“Call Me Mother” is a story about two mothers, Twinkle (Vice) and Mara (Nadine). Twinkle is a former queen maker turned adoptive mother to Angelo (Lucas Andalio). Mara, Angelo’s biological mom, is a former teen pageant prodigy turned high-fashion model who lives with deep regret after making a life-changing decision.
Twinkle reaches out to Mara to finalize the adoption. However, Mara will only agree to sign the papers if Twinkle helps her with something.
From a reluctant parent to fully embracing motherhood, can Twinkle live up to his end of the bargain with Mara despite the latter’s growing closeness to Angelo?
The film also stars “Pinoy Big Brother Celebrity Collab” housemates Klarisse de Guzman, Mika Salamanca, Brent Manalo, Esnyr Ranollo, River Joseph and Shuvee Etrata, as well as Chanda Romero, Carmi Martin, Ces Quesada, John Lapus, MC Muah, Iyah Mina, Jennifer Sevilla, Robert Ortega, Tanya Gomez and Divine Tetay. “Call Me Mother” is produced by Star Cinema, The IdeaFirst Company and Viva Films.
