VINCE RILLON is one of the busiest Vivamax actors this year. He has done five films: “Hosto”, “Boso Dos”, “Bangsa Moro”, “Sila ay Akin” and showing on Vivamax starting today is “Japino”.
And he has also done three series: “Erotica Manila”,“Ssshhh” and the forthcoming revenge story, “Araro”, directed by Topel Lee.
He must be rich by now, considering he is doing one project after another.
“Naku, hindi po, tumutulong ako sa family ko, sa mama ko, sa mga kapatid ko, sa mga pamangkin kong nag-aaral,” he says.
“Pero nagpapasalamat po talaga ako sa Viva kasi hindi nila ako pinababayaan at lagi akong may trabaho sa kanila.”
What is his role in “Japino” that starts streaming this Friday, November 10, on Vivamax?
“OFW po ako sa Japan. Girlfriend ko si Denise Esteban at nabuntis ko siya. May boyfriend din siyang Hapon. Gusto niya ipalaglag yung baby namin kaya nagalit ako sa kanya.”
He says the movie was shot in tandem with “Hosto” early this year.
“Same cast, pero magkaiba po ang directors. Nakakalito kasi palipat-lipat ako ng set. Gina-guide na lang ako ng staff at ng wardrobe para hindi ako malito sa two characters na ginagampanan ko.
"Dito sa ‘Japino’, blonde ang buhok ko at lagi akong nakasuot ng bonnet. Winter noon sa Sapporo, their winter capital, kaya sobrang lamig.
"Pero na-enjoy ko yung masarap na ramen nila at yung beers nila.”
He has made love on screen to almost all the Vivamax leading ladies paired with him.
Now, he is all set to make love to all the newcomers being introduced in “Araro” that starts streaming on November 19: Dyesa Garcia, Ara Alonzo, Jenn Rosa and Caira Lee.
Someone tagged him as the godfather of Vivamax newcomers or tagabinyag ng mga baguhan. How does he feel about it?
“Bale wala pa nga po yang ‘Araro’ ko kasi doon sa series na ‘L’ last year, pito silang naka-bed scene ko.
"At saka hindi naman na po sila virgin, so hindi ako nagbibinyag sa kanila. E, sa akin naman, work lang lahat yan.
"And I make sure before we do a love scene, kinakausap ko muna sila to find out kung ano limitations nila para maging comfortable kami with each other while doing the love scene.”
So he doesn’t get affected when he’s doing nude love scenes with them? Doesn’t he get turned on?
“Naku, hindi na po. Kasi iniisip ko, hindi naman ako yun, but the character that I am portraying.
"Also, heavily plastered po ako. Ako mismo ang naglalagay ng plaster sa sarili ko to make sure hindi siya tatayo during bedscenes.
"Pareho kami ng mga nakakapareha ko, hindi nate-turn on at pinagtatawanan na lang namin ang ginagawa namin.”
Doesn’t it hurt when he takes off the plaster as the hair might come off with it?
“Nagse-shave po ako bago ako magdikit ng plaster. Kasi kung hindi, masakit talaga pag hinila mo na yung plaster. Actually, sobrang nakakapagod po gumawa ng bedscene.
"Lalo na kapag nagde-demand ang director na iba’t ibang positions ang gawin namin. E, ako, yung mga pinagawa sa akin on cam, sa totoo lang, ni hindi ko pa nasusubukang gawin sa totoong buhay, e.”
