“Mas naging solid, mas naging close, mas nakilala namin ang isa’t isa (We became more solid, we became closer, and we got to know each other better). You really get to know the person once you work with her in a set-up na matagal magkasama (for a long time),” he said.

FEATURED STORIES

Richards and Bernardo wrapped up their scenes in Alberta, Canada last August, and the actor was also seen filming in Hong Kong last June. It remains unknown if the movie had wrapped up filming for good.

“It’s always been worth it naman. Of course, it’s tiring physically but the mere fact that you’re blessed with work, and you’re able to do those things in a short span of time, nakakatuwa kasi at least, na-cover ko siya. Nagawa natin siya kahit marami tayong ginagawa on the side,” he said.
