Only the greats get a spot at Madame Tussauds Hong Kong. In their pursuit to find the next Filipino talent to immortalise, it’s no surprise that they finally landed on one of the brightest acts of her time, Asia’s renowned actress Kathryn Bernardo.
A multi-awarded actress, Kathryn’s stellar career spans two decades and counting. Known as
the Phenomenal Box-Office Queen of Philippine Cinema, she began acting at the age of seven and quickly established herself as a leading lady with a string of hit teleseryes and films, including Got to Believe, Pangako Sa ‘Yo, The Hows of Us, and Hello, Love, Goodbye, which was coincidentally set in Hong Kong. The latter’s sequel, Hello, Love, Again, made history as the first Filipino film to earn over one billion pesos at the worldwide box office, becoming the highest-grossing Filipino film of all time.
Kathryn’s remarkable success and global fan base, reaching fans in Vietnam, Thailand, South Korea, and beyond, have made her a sought after endorser for top brands. In 2020, Forbes Asia recognised her as one of the most influential celebrities on social media in the Asia-Pacific region, cementing her status as a media favourite and acting powerhouse in the entertainment industry.
This year, Kathryn is adding another milestone to her illustrious career with her inclusion at Madame Tussauds Hong Kong. “It’s a dream come true to have my own wax figure, and I’m grateful to the Madame Tussauds Hong Kong team for their trust in me,” said Kathryn, who had her measurements taken during her sitting session last August. “I’m excited for my fans worldwide to visit and interact with my twin, especially as Hong Kong, especially since it’s such a meaningful milestone for me.”
Kathryn is the fourth Filipino personality to be immortalised by Madame Tussauds Hong Kong, following Pia Wurtzbach, Manny Pacquiao, and Anne Curtis. “We value our Filipino market and aim to provide them with an unforgettable experience at Madame Tussauds Hong Kong,” said Wade Chang, General Manager of Madame Tussauds Hong Kong. “Kathryn is an inspiring artist who has worked tirelessly to achieve her success. At Madame Tussauds, we honour excellence with a global impact, making Kathryn the perfect choice for our next Filipino wax figure.”
Kathryn’s likeness will be displayed alongside Hollywood icons like Rihanna, Johnny Depp, and Robert Pattinson. The attraction’s skilled sculptors are crafting the actress’s wax figure, and fans can expect it to be unveiled in 2026.
