John Lloyd Say to Sarah-Gerald Love Affair

Three-time Box Office King John Lloyd Cruz humbly accepted the accolades given to him during the victory party of Unofficially Yours last March 7 at 9501 Restaurant in ABS-CBN. The movie has already earned 165 million pesos and is now on its fourth week in the cinemas.

“Hindi naman yun totoo,” John Lloyd said when told that no other actor could beat his box office success. “Kahit kaninong pelikula, napaka-unpredictable ngayon ng audience, parang ‘di mo alam kung ano ang tatangkilikin nila at kung ano ang hindi. Natutuwa ako dahil buhay na buhay ang mga moviegoers, kaya para sa aming mga artista, director at producer, malaking bagay yun, kasi alam mo na yung manonood gusto lagi, ‘Surprise us. Ano ang ma-o-offer ni’yo ngayon?’ It keeps us inspired and up on our toes.”

At this point in his career, John Lloyd explained that he’s not just after box office hits, but more on doing quality films that he can be proud of. “Masaya, nakakatuwa, kasi may record ‘yan kumbaga. [Pero] ayoko kasing napre-pressure, kasi on a project basis, basta maganda ang pelikula, basta malinis, siyempre kapag kumita masaya ka. Pero mas magiging masaya, nirerespeto at fulfilled ka kapag malinis ang pelikula more than dun sa kumita. [Mas gusto ko yung] quality pa rin kaysa yung kinita.”

Although he’ll be doing a movie with Sarah Geronimo and a teleserye with Bea Alonzo very soon, John Lloyd said he is considering Anne Curtis as a leading lady for his next movie. “Hindi ko nga alam kung bakit lately napapaisip ako. Tingin ko hindi kami bagay kaya nakaka-challenge. Hindi ba parang nakaka-challenge yun, parang ‘di bagay pero ‘pag nabigyan ng magandang materyal [baka mag-work]. Hindi pa kasi nakikita what we can offer, hindi pa kami nabibigyan ng chance, pero kapag nabigyan ng chance tignan natin kung meron bang chemistry o wala.”

But now that he’s working again with Sarah on the big screen, hotpinoyshowbiz.blostpo.com asked John Lloyd how he feels now that the young actress is being romantically linked to Gerald Anderson. He refused to say whether or not he’s privy to the real score between the two, but he agreed that Sarah looks so inspired these days. “Alam mo, kapag nakakakita tayo ng dalawang taong ‘nagmamahalan’ kagaya ng sabi mo, ikaw ang nagsabi nun ah, baka ma-quote ako eh. Basta in general, kapag nakakita ka ng dalawang taong masaya, lalo na ng dalawang taong may nag-uugnay sa kanilang kaligayahan, maganda yun at walang rason para hindi ka maging masaya para sa kanila.”

John Lloyd added that he can’t wait to see what he and Sarah can offer the moviegoers in the third instalment of A Very Special Love. “Nasa preparation stage pa lang kami. Oo [excited ako makatrabaho si Sarah] at sa kung anong pupuntahan ng storya kasi dalawang pelikula na ang nakalipas. Saan kaya dadalhin ng storya sina Laida at Miggy this time around? Yun ang dapat abangan.”
