Previously, she only played miserable roles, now she gets to play a rich woman, sitting on a 3 billion VND prop chair, Viet Huong said "there has never been a project that has made me as happy and shocked as this movie".
Taking on the supporting role in the film Tra by director Le Hoang, Viet Huong attracted attention after many years of returning to cinema. In the film, she plays a wealthy woman whose husband is having an affair (the role of the husband is played by Meritorious Artist Truong Minh Quoc Thai).
Viet Huong said that when Le Hoang invited her to act in a movie, she immediately agreed because she always considered this director a genius of Vietnamese cinema. The director made an appointment to meet her to give her the script and made her read it right in front of him for several hours, not allowing her to take it home to read later.
After reading the script, Viet Huong felt that the character was very interesting and wanted to play a role that she had never tried before. “In previous films, I often controlled and led others. But with this role, I was psychologically arranged by the other characters. I acted according to them, not knowing in advance how people would treat me,” she shared.

The female artist jokingly said that this was the "happiest" role in her career: "Before now, I've only played miserable, fateful roles. There has never been a project that has made me as happy and moved as this movie."
The film is set in a large villa of a businessman in Ho Chi Minh City, a close friend of director Le Hoang. According to Viet Huong, the items in the house are all worth billions, so she got to experience the life of a rich woman. "After discovering the 3 billion VND chair, the 1 billion VND carpet... I didn't dare sit or step on the carpet anymore," Viet Huong joked.

Director Le Hoang admitted that there was pressure when returning to a film project but did not want to complain too much. Regarding the reason for not making films in recent years, he said it was because "if I do a poor job, no one will hire me, there is no need to beat around the bush."
In the movie Tra , Le Hoang chose a brand new actress for the female lead role. He said he did not want to choose famous stars like Ninh Duong Lan Ngoc, Kaity Nguyen, Nha Phuong or Miu Le... because they were not suitable.
"I don't see any stars suitable for my film. When choosing actors, I will choose for the film, not to please public opinion. Choosing a new actor to play the lead is risky, but I have done it many times. During the process, I have had failures and successes. Whether this time will be successful or not will depend on the audience," said Le Hoang.
The movie Tra will premiere on February 10 (the first day of Lunar New Year), competing with the movies Mai (Tran Thanh), Gap lai chi bau (Doan Nhat Trung) and Sang den (Hoang Tuan Cuong).
