Unconfirmed: Pong, Aom, & Charabelle to Star in Lakorn

Wow, we hope this news is true. There are rumors at pantip forum (quoting that the source is from khaosod news) that Pong, Aom, and Charabelle Lanlalin will star in a lakorn together called Prab Ar Thun. This is rumored to be one of the four lakorns that Exact will be making this year. This lakorn is about two lives. Aom is the nang ek with Pong in the first life and Charabelle will be the nang ek in the second life. For now, this is unconfirmed news. Of course, we'll keep you updated if we hear any confirmation.

Update on Pong in Ban Sai Tong

In a previous blog post, we mentioned that Pong was offered the role of Chai Klang for the remake of the classic lakorn Ban Sai Tong. The project has been put on hold for a long time and many have wondered who the pra ek would be since news have been circulating that it was between Pong or Om Akapan. Now in this video clip from TV Pool, Pong says that at this time, he agrees to be in this lakorn, but is still waiting on the project and others. As for the nang ek of this lakorn, it was mentioned previously that Min Pechaya was considered for this lakorn. As with all lakorns, anything can change and we won't know for certain until the opening ceremony.

Will Pong Still Be in Lakorn with Pancake?

As mentioned in a previous blog post, Pong is rumored to star in Roy Lae Sanae Luang (formerly titled Nangfa Satan) with Pancake Khemanit. Recently, there have been news out of Pantip (source: here) that the pra ek for this lakorn will change, but there were no confirmations about the news. Now it looks like that Pong is no longer in this lakorn because in this video clip, Weir Sukollawat is talking about his 2 lakorn projects. He says that he is currently shooting one lakorn and the other  lakorn he will be in is Roy Lae Sanae Luang.

Pong to Star in Another Lakorn with Noon

News have been circulating for a while now that Noon Warranauch will star in a lakorn from Exact called E-Sa and now there is news that her leading man will be Pong. The title E-Sa comes from the nang ek, whose name is Sa  and the "E" in front of her name indicates contempt, a person of low social status. This will be a period lakorn and will be directed by Sant Srikaewlaw (director of Dork Soke, Leurd Kattiya, Ching Chang, Fah Pieng Din, & La Ong Dao). If nothing changes, shooting will begin early 2013. (source: khaosod.co.th)

Pong to Star in a Lakorn with Gypsy Keerati

Exact will be remaking the lakorn Jao Mae Jum Bpen. The old lakorn starred Duo Sanya and Tong Pakkamai about a poor nang' ek that is a medium/a conjurer of spirits who has no choice but to make her living by scamming people, thus the title Jao Mae Jum Bpen (rough translation, The Conjurer Must Be).  In this version, Pong will be starring with Gypsy Keerati Mahaplearkpong (singer/actress, check out her MVs below). Other cast members include Grace The Star 6 and Fair Gundon (currently in Dork Soke). The fitting will be May 4th and the opening ceremony will be on the 19th. (source: pantip forum here and here)

There are news circulating that Pong and Pancake Khemanit are to star together on a lakorn called Nangfa Satan / Angel Satan (sources komchadluek and pantip). The lakorn will be produced by DaraVDO for channel 7. So far, this news is unconfirmed. If we hear anything else about this, we'll let you know.

Pong Will No Longer Be In Planned Lakorn with Pang

Nang Singh Sabad Chor just had their opening ceremony, but no Pong. Originally, Pong was supposed to star in this lakorn alongside Pang Ornjira. According to เม้าท์ซี่ (Mouthsy) Magazine, Pong said he had talked with Khun Nipon, one of the executives at Exact. Pong wants to refuse this lakorn because now he is working on 2 lakorns and fears that he won't be able to do it well. The lead role is now given to Mos Patiparn. (source: pantip forum)

Aom Will No Longer Do Her Planned Lakorn with Ken

Even after Aom found out that she was pregnant, she stated that she would still act in Ruk Khun Tao Fah with Ken, Chompoo Araya, and Cherry Khemupsom. Now, in the latest news out of newsplus and thairath, Aom says that she won't be able to do the lakorn because filming hasn't even began, but her baby bump is getting bigger and bigger. 

Possible Upcoming Lakorns for Pong

In a recent article at thairath, Pong answered some questions about his rumors and in the last paragraph it talks about his lakorn projects. He said that he has 2 lakorns that he will do for Exact.  Also, about the rumors of him doing the Ch 7/DaraVDO lakorn Ban Sai Tong, he said that if he has enough time, he would not refuse it because he is interested in the role. At pantip forum (saying that the source is from twitter @ TonoGrace_Home), someone posted that Pong's two lakorns are:

        น้ำขึ้นให้รีบรัก - Nam Kuen Hai Reab Ruk 
             with View Wannorot & Grace the Star 6
        นางสิงห์สะบัดช่อ - Nang Singh Sabad Chor
             with Pang Ornjira & Tono

Update: The Status of Pidsawat

We previously posted that there were unconfirmed news that Pong, Bee, & Pim's lakorn Pidsawat would not be made. Now in this video message to her fans, Bee states that she almost got to work with director Sant Srikaewlaw (Exact's award winning director of such hits as Leurd Kattiya, Ching Chang, Fah Pieng Din, and La Ong Dao) who is supposed to direct Pidsawat and now is currently directing Pong's upcoming drama Dork Soke. Bee did not go into details, but said that there is a problem and now won't be able to do it. As for the lakorn itself, we still believe that Exact will still make this lakorn since they already bought the copyright. It's just they will use a different cast.

Update: Confirmation on Aom's Lakorn with Ken

We previously posted news that there was talk that Ken would be doing a lakorn produced by his wife called รักคุณเท่าฟ้า / Ruk Khun Tao Fah / Love You As Much As the Sky. Last night on the entertainment program Doa Ka Jia, Ken's wife Noi Bussakorn confirmed that this lakorn will be made and that so far, the three actresses that are confirmed for the lakorn are Aom, Chompoo Araya, and Cherry Khemupsom. Janie Tienphosuwan was also rumored to be one of the actresses to appear in this lakorn, but we're not sure if she wasn't mentioned because she hasn't confirmed with Noi that she would take the role or if she is still being considered for the part. Of course, we'll let you know if we hear of any other updates.

Unconfirmed: Aom to Star with Ken & 3 Other Major Actresses in a Lakorn

There are rumors at pantip forum (from komchadluek.net) that Ken will star alongside 4 major actresses in a lakorn that his wife Noi Bussakorn is producing called รักคุณเท่าฟ้า / Ruk Khun Tao Fah / Love You As Much As the Sky. The leading actresses that he might get to work with are Aom, Janie Tienphosuwan, Cherry Khemupsorn, and Chompoo Araya. The storyline is centered around Ken's character and 4 women who come into his life at different times of his life. So far Ken says that they are contacting the actresses and awaiting approval from Channel 3. Since there will be four major actresses in the lakorn, many at pantip are curious as to who will get the role of the nang ek that will end up with Ken's character. 

Pong's New Project: Dork Soke

This was totally a surprise! There were rumors of Pong in other projects, but none for this lakorn. Originally, Chakrit and Vill Wannarot were supposed to star in this, but now it looks like it will be Pong. The nang ek will be announced tomorrow and is rumored to be newcomer Charebelle Lanlalin. Jeab Sopidnapa, Aom's best friend, will also be in this drama and will probably act as the nang ek's mother who also falls in love with the pra ek.  Dork Soke / Sad Flower is a remake lakorn which originally aired on channel 7 16 years ago.

Pong in Komchadluek News

credit: posted at komchadluek.net

This is a quick summary of Pong's interview from Komchadluek News (full interview here). The subject of the news is about Pong's rumors with a certain young woman, which Pong denies. Of course this is nothing new. Pong is constantly in the news for being involved with a certain girl, which he always denies. But towards the end of the interview, the reporter asked Pong about rumors of him being in Nam Soy Sai (rumored to star with Noon) and Luang Buang Ruk (rumored to star with Kwan). Pong denies that he is in any of these lakorns, but does say that he will be in another lakorn. Unfortunately, he did not give any details. Is Pong being honest or is he keeping quiet about his upcoming projects? Guess we'll just have to wait to find out. (Translations/Summary by Punrungpundao)

Aom Guest Starring in Moo Daeng

Okay Aom fans, as we're waiting for news on Aom's lakorn later this year, in the meantime, we'll be able to catch her as a guest star in Moo Daeng. It's a lakorn that her father Prisam Akarasenee is directing that stars Pete Thongjure and Koi Ratchawin. Aom has a cameo role as the pra ek's wife that dies in the lakorn. How sad.... (special thanks to Lucy for sharing this news)

Nam Soy Sai: Will Pong and Noon Reunite?

We posted news earlier that Pong was rumored to have an upcoming lakorn with Kob Suvanant called Nam Soy Sai. Now there is word at pantip that Noon Warranauch is to be in the starring role alongside Pong. Those at pantip say that they got the news from TVpool. For now this is unconfirmed. We do know that the leads for this lakorn has changed many times now ever since it was announced that they would remake this lakorn. As in the lakorn world, if there is no opening ceremony, anything can change. We'll keep you updated if we hear any thing new.

Will Pidsawat Still Be Made?

There is some unconfirmed news at asianfuse that Pong and Bee's future lakorn together, Pidsawat, will not be made. A member at asianfuse posted that he read that Bee says that the lakorn has been "deleted". We checked at Exact's website and other sites for Bee's fans, but did not see the news. The last we read about Pidsawat was that filming was moved to next year and that Khun Sant Srikaewlaw, an award winning director for Exact (Luerd Kattiya, Fah Pieng Din, La Ong Dao, Ching Chang), will be directing it. Of course, if we hear of any other news about Pidsawat, we'll let you know.

Unconfirmed: Pong & Aom to Reunite in a Lakorn

OMGosh, this has been the news us Pong and Aom fans have been waiting for. There is talk at pantip that Pong, Aom, Oil Thana, Pim Pimmada, Tony, and Apple the Star will all be starring in Kwarm Lub Kaung Superstar 2 (Secrets of the Superstar 2). Those at pantip say that the source of the news is from Exact and that Khun Boy chose the cast. If the rumor is true and Pong and Aom do get paired in this lakorn, Aom will be the only other actress that has re-paired with Pong in a lakorn besides Bee Namthip. We hope this news will get confirmed. Discussions for this lakorn at asianfuse here .

Unconfirmed: Pong to Star in a Lakorn with Kob

Here's another unconfirmed news for us to keep an eye out for. There's news at pantip that Pong, Kob Suvanant, and Yui Jiranan are going to be in a lakorn for DaraVDO called Nam Soy Sai. They say that the source of the news is from Star News. So far there is no confirmation. Of course, we will let you all know if we hear anything else about this.


Edit: If this lakorn gets made, Nam Soy Sai will be a remake. One popular version of this lakorn was made many years ago starring Saranyu Wongkrachang, Nok Sinjai, and Peeyanuj. Here's the clip from the lakorn's opening.
