In the story, he plays the father of villain Thea Tolentino and they both gang up on Barbie Forteza, the daughter of Jomari Yllana. “Maganda ang bonding naming lahat sa set, along with Jean Garcia as the mother of Barbie and Thea, kasi nga matagal na kaming magkakasama. Close na kami talaga, pati leading men nilang sina Derrick Monasterio and Andre Paras.
And what’s his role in “Mulat”? “I play Vincent, ang boyfriend ng bidang si Loren Burgos as Sam. Nakatakda na kaming pakasal. But before the wedding, she starts having nightmares at nagpa-therapy siya. She starts having second thoughts about our wedding dahil masyado raw akong controlling. Thing get worse nang makilala niya si Jake Cuenca and she decides to call off our engagement.”
How is it working with a first time director like Diane Ventura in “Mulat”? “Okay siya, she knows what she’s wants and how to get it from her actors. She’s also very open and you can make suggestions on how you can do a scene more effectively.”
How would he assess the performance of newcomer Loren Burgos in the lead role? “This is her first lead role and it’s a difficult one kasi she goes through a process of self-awakening. But with the help of our director at kaming co-actors niya, she delivers well.”
