Beyond the Chills: The cast’s fun moments on the set of iWant’s “Dead Girl Walking”

In the newest iWant vertical series, “Dead Girl Walking,” Luna (Kolette Madelo) faces a difficult situation when a prank by the school’s mean girls spirals out of control, leading to devastating consequences and setting her on a dark, gripping path to revenge. 

While the series delves into a chilling tale of mystery and payback, the atmosphere behind the cameras tells a different story. From their look tests to their shooting days, the stars of “Dead Girl Walking” share the fun, chaotic, and lighthearted moments that filled the set as they brought the microdrama to life. 

The cast first stepped into their characters during the look test. Among the “mean girls,” Reich Alim was already channeling Jessica’s sassy attitude, while Alysson McBride exuded effortless chic in candid shots—a stark contrast to her character, Veronica. 

The excitement continued as River Joseph, who plays Elio, sported a charming school-uniform look in a series of photos with Kolette. Even in stills, their chemistry shines through, giving fans more reason to look forward to seeing how they bring kilig to the microdrama’s suspense-filled story. 

The fun carried over to the set, where the cast gave viewers a glimpse of what goes on behind the scenes of “Dead Girl Walking.” Kolette showcased her range as she seamlessly switched between Luna and Selene, bringing out each character’s distinct personality. Meanwhile, River embraced Elio’s heartthrob appeal while adding an air of mystery to the role.  

Off-camera, Reich and Alysson shared bonding moments between takes, while Kolette and River stayed focused as they rehearsed their lines and fine-tuned their scenes. Also joining the cast is content creator Pitik Queen, who plays a schoolteacher and brings a refreshing presence to the series. 

Rounding out the ensemble are veteran actresses Desiree del Valle (Gina) and Nikki Valdez (Marisol), who showcase their acting prowess through compelling performances. Bringing everything together is director Emerald Silvestre, whose creative vision, along with the dedication of the cast and crew, helps weave romance and suspense into “Dead Girl Walking.”
