‘Maybe This Time’

CEBU, Philippines - Star Cinema continues to celebrate its 20th anniversary as it joins forces with Viva Films in “Maybe This Time,” the biggest romantic film this season. “Maybe This Time” marks the maiden and highly-anticipated big screen collaboration between two of ABS-CBN’s biggest and most bankable stars: Primetime King Coco Martin and Box-Office Queen Sarah Geronimo.

Directed by Jerry Lopez Sineneng and written by Anton Santamaria and Melai Monge, “Maybe This Time” is a love story centered on Steph Asuncion (Sarah Geronimo) and Tonio Bugayong (Coco Martin). Steph and Tonio are polar opposites and the only thing they have in common is the fact that they fell in love with each other. Circumstances beyond their control eventually compelled them to trek separate paths and lead different lives until they finally meet after so many years to confront an unfinished business that may or may not be resolved.

After leaving Steph, Tonio became involved with an unlikely girlfriend in the person of Monica (Ruffa Guttierez) who happens to be the boss of Steph in the PR firm she is working for. Monica instructs Steph to transform and reinvent Tonio for him to fit into Monica’s wortld. Will their burning passion with each other be finally rekindled or will they conclude a major chapter in their lives and simply move on? Ultimately, Tonio and Steph will be reminded of the great significance of time and the inevitability of change in their relationship.

“Maybe This Time” is a story on how two people will be reminded about the importance of being truthful to one’s self for true love to triumph.

Experience a different kind of love and romance and fall in love as Coco and Sarah make summer the new Valentine season. “Maybe This Time” hits cinemas nationwide this May. (FREEMAN)
