Joshua Garcia reiterated that his onscreen partner, actress Julia Barretto, is not yet his real-life girlfriend.

Garcia, however, admitted that they are much closer to each other now.

“Mas open na talaga kami ngayon sa isa’t isa. Nagkakasabihan na talaga ng problema. Ibang iba kaysa dati. Pero wala pang ‘kami’ kasi siyempre kailangan ko munang paghirapan ‘yun. Kailangan ko munang ligawan si Julia,” he said.

Nonetheless, Garcia said he considers Barretto his “queen” because that’s how he sees it appropriate to treat his leading lady.

Garcia and Barretto first worked together in the 2016 Metro Manila Film Festival top-grosser “Vince and Kath and James.” Since then, the two have become really close, with many of their supporters speculating that they have already taken their relationship to the next level.

After “Vince and Kath and James,” Garcia and Barretto will star again in an upcoming movie to be directed by Antoinette Jadaone.

“Malapit na kaming mag-start, siguro next week, pero mauuna magsimula si Julia sa akin,” Garcia reported.

“Actually kami lang dalawa pa ‘yung na-cast sa movie pero siyempre may mga magulang kami doon, may mga friends kami. Hindi pa puwede i-reveal,” he added.

Aside from the movie, Garcia also has a new television series where he will work with Janella Salvador and Elmo Magalona. (MNS)

Although not much details were revealed during the film’s story conference on Tuesday, it is certain the two’s second movie together will be directed by Antoinette Jadaone. “Sobrang excited na ako. Hindi lang sa character. Excited ako maka-work si direk. Siyempre magsasama ulit kami ni Julia,” Garcia said. “More than anything, we are just very thankful, full of gratitude kasi malaki ‘yung trust na binigay sa amin ni Josh. We just want to make the most out of it. We don’t want to let anyone down. Sana maging proud pa rin sila sa gagawin naming project,” Barretto said. Asked what the movie is about, Jadaone said: “Tungkol siya sa isang lalaki na na-meet ang isang sobrang weird na babae, loka-lokang babae, na sa sobrang weird niya, naniniwala siya sa aliens. Si Joshua, hindi siya naniniwala sa aliens pero dahil nagustuhan niya si Julia sa unang pagkakita niya, na-endear siya sa kanya so sinakyan niya ‘yung pagkagusto ni Julia sa aliens.” In the process, Jadaone, who directed the indie hit “That Thing Called Tadhana” and the primetime drama “On the Wings of Love,” said the two characters will “experience a love that’s not usually experienced by millennials their age.” “A great love na kakaiba. Akala natin sa start, nag-umpisa lang sa pagkagusto sa aliens pero much more Read More …
