Meanwhile, During the grand media conference of their film at a Quezon City restaurant, Roderick shared that he accepted the film partly because of his friend.
“I won’t deny the fact na iba pa rin ang excitement ko na makasama ko ulit si Marya,” actor Roderick Paulate said.
“Nagkikita kami sa mga parties, nagkikita kami sa mga production, but then di pa kami ulit nagkakasama at iba na ngayon. Iba yung edad namin noon,” he added.
Maricel also shared how the enduring chemistry and friendship of the two veteran actors never diminish, even in the face of misunderstandings.
“Hindi kasi nagtatagal away namin ni Dick, In minutes tapos na. Parang ano lang nagpunta ka lang sa dentist.” Maricel Soriano said.
“Kaming dalawa kasi, pag nagbukas ako kay Dick, makikinig yan, di nakakalimutan niyan. Siya rin magbubukas sa akin, di ko makakalimutan rin. So how can you get mad at one person?” she added.
