MANILA, Philippines — John Lloyd Cruz is officially returning to the big screen, as he is slated to star in a movie with Jasmine Curtis-Smith.
According to Aubrey Carampel’s “24 Oras” report last Tuesday, Jasmine said in a press conference that their film was expected to come in the “next coming months.”
The working title of the movie is yet to be revealed.
Meanwhile, John Lloyd revealed that the Kapuso actress was his personal choice as his leading lady, because he was impressed by her versatility when she guested on his sitcom “Happy ToGetHer.”
“’’Yung role na ginawa niya nu’ng pilot episode namin, I think mahirap ’yon. Hindi lahat yata magagawa ’yon. Ang galing na nakita ko ’yon. Kaya niyang mag-transition from seryosong materyal to a sitcom,” the actor said.
Jasmine expressed her gratitude to John Lloyd for commending her talent. She is also looking forward to exploring more of what she can do with their upcoming project.
“In my first 10 years, puro drama. ’Yon talaga ‘yung na-highlight sa’kin, pero gusto ko naman mapakita ‘yung range ko na kahit anong genre, kayang pasukin,” she said.
John Lloyd’s sitcom “Happy ToGetHer” is airing on GMA Network, marking his television comeback.
