Lisa to Star in and Executive Produce Netflix Rom-Com Inspired by Notting Hill
Thai global superstar Lisa is set to take the lead role in a new Netflix romantic comedy, marking a shift from action and drama to the rom-com genre, according to reports. The project comes after her acting debut in The White Lotus season 3 and amid reports that she will also appear in the action film TYGO alongside Ma Dong Seok. This time, however, the film is said to be inspired by the 1999 romantic classic Notting Hill. Lisa will serve as both lead actress and executive producer, working with producer David Bernad, whom she previously collaborated with on The White Lotus. Deadline reported that the two discussed their shared love of romantic comedies during the filming of the series and developed the idea together. The project has also brought on Katie Silberman, the screenwriter behind Set It Up and Booksmart, to develop the script. The film marks a hands-on role for Lisa, who will be involved in creating, producing and starring in the project.
