On 03 March 2020 Kat tweeted the following message:
My friend @bdgrabinski wrote and directed @HappilyMovie which is premiering at the Tribeca Film Festival! It is my pleasure to announce this while he’s suspended from twitter for saying he hopes Marco Rubio gets terminal diarrhea.
The COVID-19 pandemic would prove Kat wrong, as it cancelled the movie’s debut at Tribeca. Still, Kat’s tweet was purely promotional and she gave no word of being in front of Grabinski’s camera. However, she got retweeted by Rafael Casal, who revealed Kat’s own participation in the film, as well as her character’s name. Both actors are otherwise unlisted on IMDb.
Couldn’t be happier for my guy @bdgrabinski – also @OfficialKat and I have a scene stealing cameo in this film that is so passionate, so romántico, you will wish for a spin off. #FranchescaAndRenaldo
As promised, Kat and Rafael have a romantic scene in the film’s credits, although only their voices can be heard. Their names are featured in the credits as a thanks.
