After a series of supporting roles in films such as: Small Path to Life, My Family is Suddenly Happy, Don’t Be Afraid to Get Married Just for One Reason, War Without Borders… Van Dung’s son – Long Vu finally has his first leading role.
Long Vu plays the role of Chai – the son of the richest family in the village in the movie “Going in the middle of a brilliant sky”. Although he can choose his wife, Chai only loves Pu (played by Thu Ha Ceri), a smart girl who passed the university entrance exam and longs to go to the city to study to help the villagers.
The first episodes aired, but the actions of the young master Chai in love made netizens excited. The excerpts starring Long Vu received millions of views and likes on various platforms.
Van Dung’s son caused a stir when he played the main role for the first time.
Few people know that, despite being her biological son, Van Dung never helped her son get a role. Instead, she advised her son to go to castings and ask for roles himself. The proof is that during his 4 years of university, Long Vu (Chai) did not receive any invitation to act in a movie.
Before Long Vu entered the profession, Van Dung told her son that this job would be very hard. If he was not good at it, he would be poor and not be able to make enough money to take care of his family, wife, children or relatives.
In a recent interview, when the MC asked Long Vu: “When you graduated, did your mother ever mention that you had to go to castings for this or that movie?” Actor “Walking in the Bright Sky” frankly: “I’ll tell you the truth, with my mother’s workload, she never cares or never knows which movies are casting. Because people like my mother will be invited to play roles”. Long Vu also shared that there were large-scale casting sessions of VFC that he blamed his mother for not telling him, in response, artist Van Dung said: “Oh, that’s my job, not yours. Your job is to earn money, take care of your career and raise you to study. When that’s over, your duty is over. As for casting your career, that’s your job”.
Regarding her son’s acting in the excerpts, Van Dung commented very harshly: “The acting is immature, boring, and doesn’t add anything.” However, Long Vu knows that his mother wants him to have the motivation to try harder. When watching his mother’s movies, Long Vu doesn’t dare to criticize them, he just says: “Oh my, this acting style is so old.”
