The movie “Purple Hearts,” starring, executive produced, and scored by actor and singer Sofia Carson, known for her role in the Disney Channel TV movie series “Descendants,” was released exclusively on Netflix on July 29 and has been a hit worldwide.
As of August 8, it was ranked as the most watched movie in the world, and here in Japan, on Netflix, it attracted attention immediately after its release, holding the second place in the ranking of the most watched movies from July 31 to August 5. It has continued to rank in the top 10 since then, making it a huge hit.
Here’s what “The Purple Hearts” is all about!
In this film, based on the novel of the same name published in 2017, Sofia plays the main character Cathy, a Latino immigrant who works as a waiter while dreaming of debuting as a singer. She has a pre-existing condition of diabetes but has no health insurance, and decides to marry Luke, a marine played by Nicholas Galitzin, just to get the benefits provided by the military to cover the cost of her treatment. The two, who are polar opposites, initially marry only as a formality, but gradually become attracted to each other after a certain event.
Sofia has starred in the 2020 Netflix film “Feel the Beat” and the Michael Bay-produced “Songbird,” but her performance in “Purple Hearts” was “my biggest challenge as an actor,” she tells People in the US.
To play Cathy faithfully, Sofia researched “what it’s like to come to this country as an immigrant, what it’s like to live as an immigrant in Southern California and San Diego [where the film is set], and then Type 1 diabetes, the military, military culture, her view of the world and politics, her view of marriage She researched “everything from her views on the world, politics, and her attitude toward marriage.
Sofia Carson’s soundtrack was also a big hit.
When we interviewed Sophia in March of this year, she told us about “Purple Hearts” that she “wrote the music for this film first, and then we started shooting.” Since the music was the initial foundation of the film, the music performed by Sophia herself is one of the main attractions of the film.
The soundtrack of the film, which was released on the same day as the distribution of the film, was a big hit, ranking No. 2 on the U.S. iTunes album chart and No. 1 on the iTunes soundtrack charts in the U.S. and European countries. In particular, the song “Come Back Home” became a viral hit, reaching #3 on the Shazam global chart (charting in 50 countries) and #12 on the Spotify global viral 50 chart (charting in 25 countries).
The movie “Purple Hearts,” which showcases Sofia’s appeal as an actor and singer, is now available exclusively on Netflix.
