Former onscreen
partners Judy Ann Santos and Piolo Pascual reunited a decade after their last
project.
Judy Ann and Piolo’s last project was the movie Don’t Give Up on Us by director Joyce Bernal.
The two got the chance to engage in the same “project” anew when Judy Ann was introduced as the one of the three ambassadors of Sun Life Financial Inc. along with Charo Santos-Concio and Matteo Guidicelli.
Judy Ann, having been introduced during the Friday press conference first, clarified that she and Piolo have always been okay.
“Natatawa ako kanina kasi parang ang feeling ng mga tao ay magkagalit kami,” she began.
The actress-turned-author pointed out that “Hindi kami magkagalit. Nagbabatian kami kapag nagkikita kami.”
She surmises that the public assumes that they are not okay because they haven’t been able to work together for a while.
“We're older now, we're more matured. Maybe nama-magnify lang ng mga fans siguro yung thoughts na kapag nagkasalubong o nagkita,” she said.
“Siguro isang malaking event para sa kanila ang makita kami sa isang presscon,” Juday laughed.
Piolo affirmed what Juday said while adding that they were able to put to rest whatever issue they had in the past.
“Siyempre, hindi naman puwedeng isantabi mo lang ang relationship niyo, ‘yung pinagsamahan niyo,” said Piolo who unabashedly told the press that he would always be grateful to Juday for she was instrumental in the success of his career.
Once again, Piolo said that he remains open to work with the acclaimed superstar.
“I actually pitched it to her already through Direk Joyce and sana magustuhan po niya,” revealed the Love Me Tomorrow star.
“Nagustuhan naman daw po niya. Siguro ‘yung time lang po,” he continued.
Piolo shared that he was able to think about the project while he was taking a break abroad and studying Christian Apologetics.
Meanwhile, Piolo shared that he is set to a movie and a new album soon.
