The upcoming film is produced by Padilla and Dreamscape Digital, co-written by Andrian Legazpi and directed by James Robin Mayo.

It tells the story of Michael (Gumabao) and Apple (Reyes) whose lifestyle vary as the former heavily depends on technology for a living while the latter prefers to distance herself from social media.

The two will be brought together by fate, but their relationship will be put to test as secrets from their pasts unravel.

“Apple of My Eye” is Padilla’s second script following the 2017 dark romance drama film “Last Night” starring Piolo Pascual and Toni Gonzaga. /cbb
