Liza Soberano welcomes the global spotlight, unleashing her potential and empowering her ambitions. It’s an inspiring journey that pays off
Starting over again seems daunting, a difficult journey fraught with uncertainty and worry. We often seek some sort of resolution to a past we left behind, to better reach toward a future we want. Absolution, after all, allows us to begin anew. And, thus, Liza Soberano starts over again: bigger, better, bolder. Was she right to do so?
The actress sought to accomplish her dreams by venturing outside Philippine entertainment, where options are sometimes few. Leaving her home country to pursue her passion for acting in the land of opportunity, Soberano’s experience is marked by courage, driven by ambition.
Shadow of Frankenstein
In her inaugural project, Lisa Frankenstein, directed by Zelda Williams, daughter of the legendary Robin Williams, and penned by the illustrious Academy Award Winner Diablo Cody, Soberano finds herself in esteemed company alongside Kathryn Newton, Cole Sprouse, and Carla Gugino. Despite her role as a secondary character, Soberano’s performance steals the show, earning her rave reviews and leaving audiences clamoring for more.

At the premiere, the dress by Olivier Theyskens stunned with a touch of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein essence: a medley of blues, blacks, and hints of verdant green swirling within its folds. Its silhouette, though unassuming, is accentuated by its nuanced embellishments: textured layers, subtle sheer, wispy tulle, and ornate lace. It was like a creation straight from the laboratory of Dr. Frankenstein himself, a concoction of disparate elements fused into a singular marvel. Fittingly so—quite literally—it worked for Soberano.
What else worked is the simple fact that, in whatever capacity and whichever role she embodies, Soberano effortlessly becomes part of the cinematic landscape. She’s a perfectly framed shot in a classic Hollywood film—each scene enhanced by her presence, each frame capturing her undeniable star power. While others may fumble for their cues, Soberano steps onto the stage with the grace of a seasoned actor, proving that she’s not just a passing character, but a leading lady in the making.
A Dress Fit for Stardom
And so, after just one film role, Soberano’s presence at prestigious events like the SAG Awards, where Mark Zuckerberg’s Instagram invited her, is undeniably the next logical step if your star shines as brightly as the sun itself. When the world acknowledges your talent, it’s a testament to something truly special. It’s a validation that your hard work and dedication have paid off in ways you couldn’t have imagined.

It was at the Anime Awards that Soberano crossed paths with none other than Korean director and Academy Award winner, Bong Joon-Ho. With such luminaries in her orbit—and two Academy Award winners at that—perhaps it’s a sign of things to come.
A Blazer Ball Gown Affair
Finally, Soberano made her entrance at the Vanity Fair Young Hollywood party, dressed in an intriguing attire that defied convention. The Christopher John Roberts’ Resort 2024 ensemble included an eye-catching combination of a traditional blazer and an Audrey Hepburn-inspired midi ball gown.

Undoubtedly, she further cements her status as a fixture in Young Hollywood, mingling with fellow young stars such as Hunter Schafer, Charles Melton, and Barry Keoghan.
