After acting for two decades, MediaCorp actress Ann Kok is finally making her big screen debut in upcoming local flick Filial Party.

In 2004, she returned to Singapore to join the now-defunct broadcaster SPH MediaWorks, before going back to MediaCorp a year later after SPH MediaWorks closed.

“Five years of being away is a long time for an actress. I felt I had to start all over again and do everything from scratch.”

By then, younger actresses such as Joanne Peh, 30, and Rui En, 32, had also overtaken her in popularity – something she says she was perfectly fine with.
