MARCO GUMABAO says he couldn’t believe it when Viva told him he’d be doing "Revirginized", a movie with the Megastar.
“I’m a Sharon Cuneta fan from way back,” he says.
“One my dreams is really to get to do a movie with her someday but heto, ibinigay na agad.
"So dream come true for me na leading man pa niya ako sa ‘Revirginized’.”
So how is it working with Sharon?
“It’s great, What’s nice about her is that she doesn’t really make you feel that you’re an inferior.
"Ms. Sharon made us feel comfortable to be with her, especially on the set. She’s so genuinely nice, approachable and easy to talk to."
What is his most memorable scene with her?
“Aside from the body shot scene where she drank tequila from my tummy, which is in the trailer, it’s the scene na may tinutulak kaming kotse kasi yun ang turning point ng movie.
"Doon kasi naging mas free ang feeling ni Ms. Sharon as Carmela.
"She became a really changed woman at nawala ang pagiging uptight niya.”
Looks like he really had fun shooting “Revirginized” in Subic.
“Honestly, I will never forget the whole experience.
"To be given the chance to be the Megastar's leading man is really something. I was like a sponge and absorbed everything I learned from her.”
How about their director, Darryl Yap, how was it working with the Megastar?
“Nasa bucket list ko talaga to do a movie with her and I never thought they'd give me the chance to direct her this early in my career.
"Now, I’m so proud I could finally boast that I already have a Sharon Cuneta film. Sharon is really an angel to work with.
"No airs in spite of her stature as the Megastar. She’s a very happy person, very generous she gave me a Louis Vuitton bag, and above all, very professional.”
“Revirginized” starts streaming this Friday, August 7, on KTX.ph, iWant, TFC, IPTV, Sky PPV and on August 27, at Cignal PPV. It’s also going to be shown in actual theaters in the USA.
