In Liza Soberano’s newest role, she gets her hands dirty inside the cinematic world of “Lisa Frankenstein.”

Directed by the visionary mind of acclaimed writer Diablo Cody, known for her cult classic “Jennifer’s Body,” the film is an all-coming-of-rage love story that defies conventions. It weaves together elements of horror, romance, and black comedy into a tapestry of delightful chaos. At it’s forefront is the highly talented Liza Soberano, starring in the film as Taffy.

The film stitches together a patchwork of vivacious characters, led by Kathryn Newton’s brooding Lisa and Soberano’s Taffy. The story follows Lisa, a teenage girl in the 1980s grappling with the sudden loss of her mother and the complexities of a blended family. Newton portrays Lisa as an outsider yearning for a typical teenage experience, while Soberano shines as Taffy, her charismatic stepsister who becomes her beacon of support in a world filled with grief and isolation. The two have such a brilliant dynamic both on screen and off.

We sat down with Liza to talk all about the film and her role, check out the full conversation below!
