Thai pop sensation Lalisa “Lisa” Manobal, widely recognized as a member of BLACKPINK, is set to make her first leading appearance in a feature film with a Netflix romantic comedy inspired by Notting Hill. The project marks a major step in her career as she transitions from music and television into international cinema.

The film reunites Lisa with David Bernad, who produced The White Lotus Season 3, where Lisa played Mook, a wellness professional at a luxury resort. Her performance in the series, though brief, drew attention for her natural screen presence. The rom-com will be written by Katie Silberman, known for crafting modern, witty romantic comedies.

While plot details and the full cast remain under wraps, the movie is expected to start production later this year, with a global release planned on Netflix. Reports indicate that Lisa may also have some creative input behind the scenes, demonstrating her expanding role in the entertainment industry.

Lisa launched her solo music career in 2021 with the single album Lalisa, achieving widespread chart success. She also made her debut at Coachella in 2025, further cementing her reputation as a global performer. The transition into film reflects her versatility and growing influence beyond music.

Industry experts see this Netflix rom-com as a potential turning point in Lisa’s acting career, moving her from television guest appearances to a leading cinematic role. Fans are eager to see her bring the charm, humor, and personality she is known for into a full-length movie.

With experience in music, television, and now film, Lisa is establishing herself as a multi-talented global entertainer. This upcoming Netflix project is shaping up to be one of the most anticipated releases of the year, generating excitement among fans worldwide.
