00:00We've seen a lot of movies, we've heard a lot of stories.

00:08It's not easy to get into Hollywood.

00:11And you started by saying, you know, I got a lot of rejection.

00:15Yeah, yeah.

00:16Where'd you get that courage, that tenacity?

00:20Well, my mom would always say,

00:23Ang tigas ng ulo naman yung batang to.

00:26And I think it's just the stubbornness.

00:28Okay.

00:29Yeah, yeah.

00:30Someone who'll never give up.

00:32Yeah.

00:33Ang tigas ng ulo ng anak ko.

00:35Yes, exactly.

00:36Okay.

00:37I think it's a part of that, but it's also, again, work ethic,

00:43and also the support from my parents.

00:46How does it feel to work with somebody like Nicole Kidman?

00:50It's intimidating.

00:52Intimidating.

00:53Yeah, yeah.

00:54At first.

00:55Nakakatakot.

00:56Yeah.

00:57Nakakatakot.

00:58Yes.

00:59For sure.

01:00Because she's, you know, a movie star.

01:02She's a legend.

01:03Larger than life.

01:04Larger than life.

01:05But, you know, she's so nice and generous and so talented.

01:16Like, you have to step up.

01:18Is she kind?

01:19Yeah, yeah.

01:20What's the word for kind in Tagalog?

01:22Sobrang...

01:23Mabait.

01:24Mabait, yeah.

01:25Oh, okay.

01:26What about Tom Cruise?

01:27Tom Cruise?

01:28Yeah, I mean, they might be doing a Top Gun 3, if anything.

01:32But, I mean, just getting to work with Tom was unbelievable.

01:37Okay.

01:38Oh, I had also, I think when my mom was pregnant with me, she was in the hospital and she was

01:44watching Tom Cruise.

01:46And I think in her head she was telling me, I would hope one day that maybe Manny could

01:50be like Tom Cruise.

01:51be like Tom Cruise.

01:52Oh, so your mom wanted you to be an actor?

01:54Maybe in the back of her head, but I remember her telling me that when I told her I booked

01:58Tom Cruise.

01:59Wow.

02:00Top Gun.

02:01Take care.
