‘Shippers of Sarah Geronimo and John Lloyd Cruz’s onscreen romance are in for a treat as they are set to star anew in an upcoming film six years after their last pairing in the hit “Finally Found Someone.”
The actors’ reunion project was announced by Geronimo’s agent, Viva Artists Agency, on its official Instagram page on Thursday, May 25, as it shared photos of them linking their arms with each other.
“LOOK: Our #AshLloyd hearts [emojis] @justsarahgph and John Lloyd Cruz in a new movie together? YES!!! [emojis] #SOON,” its caption read.
The “Tala” hitmaker also took to her Instagram account to express her excitement for the movie.
Geronimo and Cruz’s supporters seemed to be excited about the reunion project, including former co-star Miles Ocampo, who played the role of Rose, sister of Geronimo’s character, Laida Magtalas.
However, some hoped that the actors would challenge themselves with a heavy genre in the movie, as seen in the comments of Viva’s post.

The “AshLloyd” team-up first gained recognition after starring as Laida Magtalas and Miggy Montenegro in the 2008 film “A Very Special Love,” and was followed up by its sequels “You Changed My Life” and “It Takes A Man and a Woman.”
The actors also joined forces in the romantic-comedy “Finally Found Someone” in 2017, where Cruz admitted at the film’s press conference that he didn’t have a chance to date his leading lady because “timing has always been an issue.” EDV
