JC and Yasmien take their love to the next level
Their romance continues in STUDIOMAX’s
“Loving You”
Admirers of the tandem closely followed and completely supported JC de Vera and Yasmien Kurdi’s rise and growing closeness, all throughout the shows they starred in from the daytime (“Pasan Ko Ang Daigdig” and “Pati Ba Pintig ng Puso”) to the primetime (“Babangon Ako At Dudurugin Kita.”) When the top-rating drama series “Babangon Ako At Dudurugin Kita,” concluded a few weeks ago, the fans of JC-Yas greatly missed seeing this enchanting love team.
The good news is that JC and Yasmien have a new project, one that is bigger, more mature, more challenging and more romantic than all their previous team-ups combined! They headline STUDIOMAX’s initial movie offering entitled, “Loving You.” Written by Fairlane Raymundo and directed by Don Cuaresma, it chronicles the funny, dramatic, bittersweet, and exciting romantic adventures of a group of friends who all work at a call center.
JC is Jepoi, a happy-go-lucky fellow who works at the call center’s IT (information technology) department. While Jepoi is adept at making broken computers work again, he is no good at mending a relationship with his female best friend Lane who, for a reason that Jepoi is too stubborn to see, has shied away from him.
Yasmien is Lane, an employee who has been recently appointed as second executive assistant to the Site Account Manager. Focused and dedicated, she loses herself and goes all out whenever her best friend Jepoi is concerned. Lane is even more unprepared and disoriented when her hot-looking boss Caleb starts giving special attention to her.
“Madinig lang ng mga fans na first movie namin ito together, kaabang-abang na!” comments JC. Yasmien is quick to say that aside from that, she and JC have more surprises for their loyal followers and lovers of romance films in general. “Marami kaming eksena dito sa pelikula na ginawa namin for the first time!” she reveals. “Eto yung mga eksenang hindi ko ginagawa sa TV na iniiyakan ko at tinatanggihan ko, nandito sa pelikulang ito! Nakakaloka! Patay ako sa tatay ko!” To illustrate her point, Yasmien cites the mature kissing scenes taken at the beach. “From first scene to last ‘pung’ kissing scene!” Yasmien declares almost breathless. To which JC playfully retorts, “So, it’s great!”
Since “Babangon” wrapped up, JC and Yas have been busy with separate projects but they’ve constantly kept in touch through SMS and calls. Now that “Loving You” is about to be shown in theaters nationwide, JC and Yas look forward to spending more time together through the movie’s promo, premiere night and screening.
“Loving You” also stars Polo Ravales & Jean Garcia, Ehra Madrigal & John Prats, Aljur Abrenica & Kris Bernal. The kilig movie of the year opens on August 20 in theatres nationwide.
