The actress will transform into a famous beauty of old Saigon - Miss Ba Tra in the movie "Chi chi em em 2", expected to be released on the occasion of Tet 2023.
Sister Sister 2 attracted attention right from the moment the project was announced when it brought together two faces Minh Hang and Ngoc Trinh with content inspired by the legend of two famous beauties of Saigon in the 20th century, Ba Tra and Tu Nhi.
According to stories passed down by word of mouth, Miss Ba Tra's real name is Tran Ngoc Tra, born in 1906 in a poor village in Can Duoc (Long An).

Her childhood was miserable and deprived, losing her father at a young age and being abused and beaten by her mother. Ms. Ba Tra left her hometown for Saigon to work as a maid when she was just 16 years old.
As a young girl, Miss Ba Tra "defeated" a series of the most elegant and wealthy playboys of that time in the South thanks to her radiant and charming beauty, and was considered a once-in-a-century beauty, a "Saigon star".
During the most glorious days of his life, Ba Tra met Tu Nhi - a girl with outstanding beauty and poor background like himself. It was Ba Tra who guided Tu Nhi to step into all the games of the upper class and become a new beauty sought after and worshiped.
From here, the fights between the two beautiful girls broke out, leading to terrible plots, inner conflicts and then an unexpected ending for the two girls once known as the most beautiful in Saigon.
Together with Ngoc Trinh, the two create an attractive confrontation.
According to producer Will Vu: "Continuing to be a story revolving around the vortex of love - hatred, money - power, Sister Sister 2 also reveals the hidden corners of two famous beauties with a life of luxury but in exchange for suffering and conflict".
Director Vu Ngoc Dang's film has just revealed the poster and the first 30-second teaser. Although quite short, with eye-catching camera angles, recreating memories of the splendid Saigon nearly 100 years ago and the radiant beauty of the couple Minh Hang - Ngoc Trinh, the audience is even more curious.
In the film, Minh Hang appears in many variations, sometimes noble and gorgeous with costumes, jewelry, and hair and makeup styles that strongly reflect the fashion of the 1930s.
The legend of two famous beauties of the ancient Southern region will be recreated in Sister Sister Sister 2.
Her character is introduced through the commentary: "In the past, in Saigon, there was only one beauty who made men crazy about her, and that was Ba Tra."
Appearing next to "Miss Ba Tra" Minh Hang, "Tu Nhi" Ngoc Trinh caught the attention of viewers because of her innocent yet sexy beauty.
The producer hopes that the film will have a fun, feminist tone, with some intense and engaging mind games, promising to be different from the usual Tet films.
