“Kinain ko yung salita ko,” says Joross. “Kasi after ‘Dedma Walking’, na extended pa po in some theaters, sabi ko, di muna ako gagawa ng gay role. Pero heto, tinanggap ko itong ‘Dalawang Mrs. Reyes’ kaya tuloy lang ang pagrampa ko. Buti na lang, pag-uwi ko ng bahay, nandun yung misis ko to remind me na lalaki pa rin ako.”
He says “Dalawang Mrs. Reyes” is a project that is difficult to say no to. “E, paano ko naman ito hindi tatanggapin? For the first time, makakapareha ko ang isang Judy Ann Santos. Dati ko pang sinasabi na makaeksena ko lang siya, masampal lang niya ako, maligaya na ako. Pero dito, hindi naman niya ako nasampal kahit nalaman niya ang lihim ko. At paano ko ito tatanggihan, e kapareha ko rin dito si JC De Vera? Sabi, kailangang may kilig kaming dalawa at nakita ko, first day pa lang, naramdaman na naming may chemistry pala kami. Ha ha ha!”Was it hard to play someone in love with JC? “Hindi naman. Matagal na kaming friends, e. Lagi kaming magkasama sa paglalaro ng basketball at nagche-chest bump pa kami niyan. Yung ball ko, ipinapasa ko sa kanya. Kinukuha naman niya. Ha ha ha!”
In the movie, they joined the gay parade in Taiwan and that’s where their respective wives, Juday and Angelica Panganiban, got to confirm that they’re homosexuals having a gay-to-gay relationship, with Joross dressed in drag and JC as a construction worker ala-Village People. “We had so much fun making this movie and we’re sure hahagalpak ang mga tao sa maraming eksena rito kaya abangan nila ang movie when it opens in theaters on January 17.”
