Kim Chiu and Gerald Anderson star in "Underwear Hero" episode of Star Magic's 24/7 in Love movie
Life has a way of sneaking up on you, as a song goes and
truly, circumstances can bring people together in the funniest way possible.
This is something both Kim Chiu and Gerald Anderson can relate to, as their
tandem is reunited Star Cinema’s offering in celebration of the 20th
anniversary of Star Magic, “24/7 In Love.” Kimeralds can enjoy watching their
favorite team up on the silver screen again via the episode “Underwear Hero.”
In the movie, Kim plays the role of Patty, a driven young
account executive who has to save her job by finding a guy who rescued his
neighbors from a fire fiasco in his underwear and became an instant celebrity.
Unfortunately, the guy turns out to be Gerald’s character Alvin, her
ex-boyfriend, whom she has hurt from the past.
“Magkaibigan naman po kami talaga,” Kim said, even adding that
her and Gerald’s career are intertwined since they won in the first “Pinoy Big
Brother Teen Edition.” The pair, who last appeared together in the movie “Till My Heartaches End” in 2010, were both happy to work with each other again. In fact, during the filming, Kim and Gerald proved their friendship is still as strong as ever.
Gerald also revealed that even though they did not do a
project for two years, working with Kim again brought back memories. “Two years
ago pa yung huling movie namin ni Kim, tapos nun nagktrabaho kami ulit, parang
bumabalik yung mga dating memories, yung mga alaala at kahit two years kaming
hindi nagkasama sa shooting, parang yung first day pa lang, kilala na talaga
namin isa’t-isa, kaya sobrang komportable kami agad.”
“Sa
‘min kasi ni Gerald, four years na kami lagi yung loveteam tapos nung sumalang
na kami, na umarte na kami sa harap ng camera, ganon pa rin parang gamay na
namin yung isa’t isa. Hindi na kami nag ‘sino kaya gaganito’ or ‘sino kaya
maggaganito,’ parang natural na. Parang okay, maganda yung flow nung umarte
kami. Kaya nagulat ako na, ‘ay oo naalala niya pa rin, naaalala ko pa rin," Kim said. She recalled that during the shooting, that people from the sidelines kept on teasing her and Gerald, making them laugh at times.
Kim and Gerald are very thankful to Star Magic for treating them like family ever since they stepped out of the Big Brother house. They also are grateful for Star Magic’s guidance for their careers wouldn’t have lasted six years in the industry and still going strong. Both shared they immediately agreed to the project after Mr.
M (Johnny Manahan) brought it up as part of Star Magic’s 20th year celebration.
As for the lessons they have learned in making the movie,
Gerald has this to share. “Minsan kasi para mapatunayan at malaman mo kung
mahal mo talaga ang isang tao kailangan minsan sa buhay, you have to grow apart
from each other kahit sandali lang, kahit mabilis lang, kasi kapag hindi na kayo
magkasama dun niyo makikita at mararamdaman kung kayo talaga para sa isa’t-isa.
Dahil ang dami niyo pang matututunan na hiwalay kayo and then when you come
back together, baka mas marami kayong alam tungkol sa buhay, about yourself, at
maging mas ok kayo.”
“Huwag agad agad magdesisyon.
Timbangin muna kung ano yung mas importante para sa ‘yo, ‘yung pagmamahal mo or
‘yung career mo. Pero kung pwede naman isabay, pwede naman, basta know your
priorities lang, pangarap mo ba o yung love mo,” Kim on the other hand shared.
