Speaking about how their on-screen partnership works, Barretto said, “We both chose to move forward, to be happy and grateful for that chapter in our lives. I think it’s all about having the right mindset coming into a project and coming together again to do this.”

Garcia, for his part, stated, “We click because we’re on the same page when it comes to giving importance to acting, giving depth to every scene, and being honest with our emotions when we deliver our lines. Of course, the fact that we have a past also helped create that romantic picture of us together in the minds of our viewers.”

Aside from the real-life exes, the movie cast includes Kaila Estrada, Aljon Mendoza, Nonie Buencamino and Ketchup Eusebio.
