Her first-ever movie stint was with the 1997 hit movie Magic Kingdom when she played Princess Dahlia. However, since Curtis did not grow up in the Philippines, she could not speak fluent Tagalog so her lines in the movie were dubbed.

Her first movie was the reason why she landed more roles in the film and television industry. However, it was not easy for her knowing that she had a lot of studying of the Filipino language to do.
