00:00Welcome again to GMA Integrated News Interviews, this time you are together.
00:14How does it feel to be together again?
00:17I'm happy that I can work with my wife again because this is our first movie as husband and wife.
00:24The last one we did was a movie called Rosario.
00:29It's been a long time. It's been 10 years.
00:32It's been 10 years.
00:33But you said that the last time you sat here, Jen,
00:37you said that you are manifesting that the next person you can work with is your wife, Dennis.
00:45It's true.
00:46Because it's been a long time since I last saw Dennis in a TV show.
00:51It's been a long time.
00:52My faithful husband.
00:54I can see you.
00:55I can see you.
00:56Maybe just for a week.
00:58That was during the pandemic.
01:00That was during the pandemic.
01:01So, technically, this is your first project as a married couple.
01:06Yes.
01:07How does it feel to be able to work with each other when you're already married?
01:10It feels good.
01:12It's like we're working together.
01:16We're used to working with each other.
01:21We've been through a lot of shows and movies.
01:24I'm really looking forward to working with him on a project.
01:31It feels good when you're comfortable with your work.
01:35You're able to do what you need to do,
01:38the scenes that you need to do,
01:40you're able to talk about how you're going to attack the scenes,
01:44you're able to talk about how you're going to make the scenes look good together.
01:49Actually, that's what I'm asking.
01:51Isn't it awkward?
01:53Because you're married.
01:55It's like when you're on set of a movie or a TV series,
02:01and you're the only ones on set.
02:03Isn't that awkward?
02:04Because you're married.
02:06You're together at home.
02:07And your character is different when you're on set.
02:11It's not like that.
02:13We're more comfortable now.
02:16When there are scenes that we really want to talk about what we're going to do in the scenes,
02:22we talk about it without...
02:26Without walls.
02:28You can say anything.
02:30We won't get hurt.
02:32We won't get offended.
02:34We already know each other.
02:36We'll give advice to each other.
02:38So that's the advantage.
02:40When you're a real-life couple,
02:43when you're working on a project,
02:45like this one, because it's a rom-com.
02:47And of course, we know that.
02:49If it's a rom-com, that's you.
02:52The queen of rom-com movies.
02:53How does it feel to be back in this genre of movies?
02:58I missed this.
02:59This kind of genre.
03:02The last time I made a movie like this was a long time ago.
03:06So I was really excited when I read the script.
03:11And I was with Dennis.
03:13I was really excited to make this movie.
03:16Because aside from its lightness,
03:18there's a lot to relate to.
03:20This is the most comfortable for me.
03:23Romantic comedy.
03:25But Dennis, is this your first time making a rom-com movie?
03:29Not often.
03:30Because in your recent movies,
03:34it's either drama or on-the-job.
03:37The theme is kind of serious.
03:39Yes.
03:40Lately, I've been focusing on dark characters,
03:44heavy storylines, heavy dramas.
03:47But now, it's refreshing and new.
03:51Because it's easy to watch.
03:53I made my last rom-com about 10 years ago.
03:57What was it?
03:58It's about why all handsome men have boyfriends.
04:04I was with Paolo Balesteros and Ian Curtis.
04:07So it's been a while.
04:09Yes, it's been a while.
04:10Will the audience change?
04:13Because coming from Green Bones,
04:15which is a blockbuster film of the Metro Manila Film Festival,
04:21did you feel any added pressure?
04:24Now, you're doing a rom-com.
04:27You said you're a drama king.
04:30But here, you're more of a romanticist.
04:34Did you feel any added pressure?
04:37Maybe.
04:38It's normal for me or for us to feel pressure.
04:42Especially when you have a big project
04:44that you don't know how the audience will react.
04:47But here, we believe in the project.
04:50We did everything to make the film good.
04:54To make the audience fall in love.
04:56From Reddit,
04:58if you're given full creative control,
05:00what dream project would you like to do together?
05:05Aside from the rom-com.
05:06Of course, the one we haven't done yet.
05:08To be a couple.
05:11Maybe if we have a chance to produce our own story.
05:17A dark, psycho-thriller.
05:23Like Rodora X?
05:26Something like that.
05:28We're both into horror.
05:30That's our bonding.
05:33Horror films or psycho-thriller films.
05:37Dark films.
05:39Have you ever produced a film like that?
05:41Not yet.
05:42That's why we want to do it when we have a chance.
05:46Calling Jimmy Pictures.
05:48Hello!
05:49Direct Zigdulight.
05:51Murder Mystery.
05:52Stuff like that.
05:53Yes.
