It was made possible through the P500,000 worth of proceeds from the recent Sunpiology Sunset Run and Star Magic’s benefit concert. “<i>Hindi naman ito</i> first time for me.<i> Kasi kapag ako tumutulong hindi naman kailangan ibinabalita. Basta may pagkakataon naman</i> I help. So<i> kahit na hindi pasko, kung may </i>blessings, share it,” she said in an interview with <a href=''>Push.com.ph</a>.</div><div><br/></div><div>After her movie <i>Suddenly It’s Magic</i>, Erich is now preparing for next <i>teleserye Juan de La Cruz</i> opposite Coco Martin. When asked about how she feels to be paired with the former <i>Walang Hanggan</i> star, the young actress said that it’ll be easier for them to establish onscreen chemistry since they’ve previously worked together in the indie film <i>Noy.</i> “<i>Masaya katrabaho si </i>Coco. Last <i>namin nagkatrabaho sa isang </i>indie film,<i> ngayon naman sa isang teleserye.</i> Coco is one of the finest actors to date <i>kaya </i>blessed<i> ako</i> to work with him.”</div><div><br/></div><div>She added that they had already met at the initial story conference together with Zsa Zsa Padilla and Albert Martinez. Incidentally, she will be playing the role of an <i>aswang</i> hunter in this upcoming soap. “<i>Ako dito si </i>Rosario,<i> isang aswang </i>hunter. <i>Ako ang pag-ibig ni</i> Juan. <i>Iba naman ito kasi kung aswang ako sa </i>Corazon, <i>ngayon naman ako naman ang hu-</i>hunting <i>sa aswang. May mga</i> action scenes so definitely <i>mag</i>-start <i>ako mag</i> training soon.”</div>

Erich Gonzales is confident that she and Coco Martin will make a good tandem after their previous working experience in an indie film.
