Mother Lily has tapped Erich Gonzales and JC de Vera to team-up in an upcoming movie for Regal Entertainment.
Napansin daw kasi niya ang kakaibang chemistry between the two when she saw them in Once a Princess, which Regal co-produced with Skylight Films.
Bagama’t, ayon kay Mother Lily, Erich ended up with the other leading man (Enchong Dee) sa pelikula, still ‘di puwedeng balewalain ang mga eksena involving Erich at JC.
And Mother Lily knows daw na mabigyan lang nga ng magandang movie sina Erich at JC, magki-click ang dalawa as a team.
While Erich is under contract to ABS-CBN, JC signed up with Regal for a number of films.
But as a TV star, exclusive rin si JC with ABS-CBN.
Mga manika ni nina Nora at Pip noon, pelikula na ngayon
Ang ganda ng reaction ng audience, when a teaser of Star Cinema’s upcoming horror-suspense flick, Maria, Leonora, Teresa, was shown during the premiere of the now showing Viva Films and Skylight Films offering, Talk Back and You’re Dead, at the Trinoma Cinema 7 last Tuesday.
Talaga namang naghiyawan sa takot, of course ang audience, habang pinanonood nila ang mga manikang sina Maria, Leonora, at Teresa come to life, kumbaga.
The film, directed by Wenn Deramas, stars together for the first time sina Zanjoe Marudo, Iza Calzado, at Jodi Sta. Maria is produced by Star Cinema.
Maria Leonora Teresa, originally the name of a doll associated with the tandem nina Nora Aunor (Guy) at Tirso Cruz (Pip) in their heydays.
Tirso mauudlot ang planong bakasyon
Speaking of Pip, he had to cut short his ‘pamamahinga’ after his role bilang Governor in the series, Ikaw Lamang, ay nagtapos.
Nasa kanyang Book 2 na ang Ikaw Lamang. Kaya another set of actors are now in the cast of the teleserye.
Originally, ani Pip, balak niyang makapagbakasyon man lang sila ng asawang si Lyn ng ilang araw man lang outside of Metro Manila.
He was told daw kasi that his next project is set in the last week of September or first week of October.
But he was offered nga a role in the series, Hawak Kamay. Which he admitted, he couldn’t resist. Moreover, type niya ang mga artistang bumubuo sa cast, sina Piolo Pacual, Iza Calzado, among others. Plus the presence, of course, of child stars Zaijian Jaranillo, Yesha Camille, at Xyriel Manabat.
Kung hanggang kailan siya sa series, wala raw ideya si Pip. But willing daw siya to start work on the other project, kapag kailangan na.
Bagama’t nasa edad na para magsipag-asawa ang tatlo nilang anak ni Lyn, sina TJ, Bodie, at Djanin, it seems wala pang balak ni isa sa mga ito ang mabigyan silang mag-asawa ng apo.
Labis na raw inaasam-asam nilang mag-asawa na magkaapo, lalo na ni Lyn, na umaming naiinggit sa best friend na si Lorna Tolentino, na may apong babae, courtesy ng panganay na si Ralph.
