Luis Fonsi’s prayers have been answered…
The 44-year-old Puerto Rican singer and Grammy winner will make his feature film acting debut in Patrick Perez Vidauri’s rom-com The Answer to My Prayer.
In addition to Fonsi, the film will also star Vannessa Vasquez, Jackie Cruz, Vivian Lamolli, Chris Kattan, Angélica María and Dyana Ortelli.
Written by Nancy De Los Santos-Reza, the film follows the romantic travails of three friends whose destinies are changed by an ancient prayer that guides them to true love.
