Coco and Julia to romance the big screen

After the success of their Kapamilya teleserye “Walang Hanggan,” Coco Martin and Julia Montes are all set to make a new film together.  This, they announced at the "Walang Hanggang Pasasalamat" concert at the Araneta Coliseum on Sunday night, October 21.

“After 'Walang Hanggan', sabi ko nga mahirap agad bumitaw, lalo na sa mga artistang kasama mo. Ni-request ko na sana after 'Walang Hanggan' ay magkaroon pa kami ng pelikula ni Julia. Ayun, this year uumpisahan po namin na gumawa ng pelikula,” Coco told over 15,000 fans who attended the event.

Coco  praised Julia for being  very professional in her work.

“Isa siya sa pinakamagandang artista ngayon sa ABS-CBN. Sabi ko nga, masaya ako na ngayong magdadalaga na siya, ako yung nakasama niya sa soap opera,” he told host Boy Abunda on stage.

Big help

Coco and Julia shared  that the drama series  helped them improve as actors and cemented their relationship with their co-stars.

“Natuto akong mag-adjust. Siguro dahil sa mas bata siya sa akin, mas humaba ang pasensiya ko. Kasi medyo makulit siya eh. Mas na-guide ko siya ng tama, hindi lang sa trabaho, pati sa personal na buhay,” Coco said.

Julia, on the other hand, revealed, “Mas naging mature ako sa buhay, yung mindset. Yung tingin ko sa work at sa personal na buhay.”

The young star also thanked Coco for being a gentleman and for guiding her as an actress.

Coco promised Julia that he will always be there for her.  

“Kahit hindi na tayo magkasama sa trabaho, kung ano man ang nabuo nating pagkakaibigan sa “Walang Hanggan,” andito ako para gabayan ka bilang magkaibigan.”

The “Walang Hanggan Pasasalamat” concert was attended by Kapamilya stars Gary Valenciano, Kris Aquino, Vice Ganda, Toni Gonzaga, Jed Madela, Christian Bautista, Erik Santos, Aiza Seguerra, Juris, Bugoy Drilon, Liezel Garcia and Bryan Termulo.

The drama series,  which will air its finale episode on Friday, Oct. 26, also stars Susan Roces, Helen Gamboa, Richard Gomez, Dawn Zulueta, Paulo Avelino, Melissa Ricks, Joem Bascon, Noni Buencamino, Ogie Diaz and Arlyn Muhlach.
