00:00
No, it's okay.
00:01
I was pitching a movie to Star Cinema.
00:03
I went to Star Cinema to pitch a film.
00:05
And then, they timed it so that they would pitch it to me.
00:11
They said that's the deal.
00:13
I would pitch it to them, and they would pitch it to me.
00:17
They actually liked the film that I pitched.
00:19
Yes.
00:20
So, that's one.
00:22
And then, I listened to them.
00:24
They pitched a movie, and then this series, Lavender Fields.
00:28
I was like, okay.
00:29
Who's going to be there at that time?
00:32
I had no idea who the cast would be.
00:34
It was Jody, and then Janine, and then Jelena's name came after.
00:40
And then, of course, Tito Edu, Miss Maricel, and then Albert Martinez,
00:46
and then Miss Lotlot de Leon was going to be there.
00:49
I was like, oh, this is like super great casting.
00:51
This is okay.
00:52
So, you have two options.
00:53
Because they know that I don't want to be in a TV series.
00:56
Because I feel like I'm already a graduate.
00:59
And my plan was to do a lot of, like, come back to be in films.
01:03
So, they said, you have bookends.
01:06
Two weeks here, and two weeks there.
01:09
I was like, okay.
01:10
What's going to be my role?
01:11
You're the one who's going to mess everything up.
01:13
I was like, yeah, I like that.
01:15
And then, as I read the script,
01:17
and then, I thought about the story.
01:21
Two weeks before actual photography of the project,
01:25
I called up and I told my management.
01:27
I said, tell them that I want to do the whole thing.
01:30
The whole show.
01:31
Because I really want to, you know,
01:33
I'm going to be beaten here.
01:34
If I'm going to do this, might as well do the whole thing.
01:39
Let's just move the shooting schedule of the other things we're going to do.
01:43
So, that's it.
01:44
And then, the rest is this.
01:46
This journey that they talked about.
01:48
I did not regret, you know, a single bit.
01:52
And I was just super, super, super, super happy with Tyrone.
01:58
I want them to remember this show as Jodie's first,
02:02
you know, offbeat kind of role.
02:06
Janine's first unexpected contrabita role, right?
02:10
My first red flag role, right?
02:14
Jolene's first super dramatic, you know.
02:17
I wanted to remember also that this is a show that had,
02:21
you know, great casting.
02:24
Were there moments during the taping
02:27
that you were challenged because you were just so happy
02:30
and the scenes were intense?
02:33
I'm always happy on the set.
02:37
I'm such a joy to work with.
02:39
I'm always happy on the set.
02:41
That's me.
02:42
If I'm not having fun on the set, then that's the end.
02:45
So, I'm either gonna ask people
02:49
that there's a character or something,
02:51
maybe if I'm not having fun,
02:52
I'm just really, very, very happy.
02:53
That never happened to me.
02:55
But, yeah, it's just a challenge.
02:59
Because action, for me,
03:02
I was a bit challenged in the preparation time for action.
03:06
Because, of course, for me,
03:08
I wanted to be perfect, something like that.
03:10
But, of course, we were being chased by a schedule.
03:14
So, we could have done better action scenes
03:17
or more time to prepare.
03:20
But, then again, it's just me and my head.
03:22
Perfectionism.
03:23
A little bit.
03:24
Because, you know, the show is more drama than action.
03:28
It's not like Cell Block,
03:30
the one that I finished before this,
03:33
that was really action-packed.
03:37
It's really action-packed.
03:38
There's a lot of action.
03:39
And then, it's really prepared for the action scenes.
03:46
So, yeah, some challenges were the travel from Manila
03:51
to Tagaytay every other day.
03:53
So, we were really busy.
03:55
We were really busy, especially the girls.
03:58
But, everything else was okay.
04:01
That's how it was.
04:02
That's how the shoot was.
04:03
Happy.
04:04
Having fun.
04:06
Hold on.
04:07
Again.
04:08
Beginning and end.
04:10
The beginning and end.
04:11
Because, the beginning scene,
04:13
the beginning part of the show
04:16
was the one that was actually really
04:18
embedded in my mind what will happen to her.
04:21
And then, the last.
04:23
The first ones, especially our scenes with Jodi,
04:28
that I had to break her heart.
04:31
With Jasmine.
04:33
Because, something had to be done.
04:37
Something life-changing had to be done.
04:39
Not in a good way.
04:40
And then, that would cost all.
04:45
That was the beginning of everything.
04:47
From Jasmine's life.
04:50
Iris' life.
04:53
And then, my life.
04:55
Trying to escape that world.
04:57
For me, building that world was so much fun.
05:00
I was like, ah, yeah.
05:02
I'm gonna cause chaos.
05:04
And then, the middle part.
05:06
It was okay.
05:07
Of course, there's a part where I got lost.
05:09
But, the last part was more of
05:11
this is the combination.
05:13
How do I fix everything that I've done?
05:15
That was Tyrone's journey.
05:17
How did he fix Jasmine?
05:19
How did he fix Iris?
05:21
So, one of my favorite scenes with Iris
05:24
was on the cliff.
05:25
He was going to shoot me
05:27
because my character came back.
05:29
He was going to shoot Tyrone.
05:31
He was going to kill Tyrone
05:33
because he ruined my life.
05:35
And then,
05:37
in contrast to that,
05:39
the scene with Jodie
05:41
on the cliff,
05:43
when we were on the cliff,
05:45
when I told her that
05:47
we really don't have anything.
05:49
Those two scenes were really
05:51
different.
05:53
The contrast was really thick.
05:55
So, the end of the show
05:57
is going to be
05:59
really
06:01
it will have
06:03
height.
06:05
That's what I'm saying.
06:07
I've received a lot of slaps
06:09
in my entire career.
06:11
I'll never get used to getting slapped.
06:13
I remember one of the
06:15
most memorable
06:17
slaps was from
06:19
Maha Salkador.
06:21
I think the power came from
06:23
the left leg.
06:25
It traveled to the hips.
06:27
And then,
06:29
it was on the shoulders.
06:31
It was like this.
06:33
And then,
06:35
I said, she's going to be my friend.
06:37
We became friends.
06:39
But Jodie is really
06:41
a kind person.
06:43
She's very caring.
06:45
You never get used to someone.
06:47
You never know when it's going to come.
06:49
I never tell them
06:51
on this word,
06:53
but
06:55
subtlety was always
06:57
the key
06:59
for me.
07:01
Especially for
07:03
this show. When I started
07:05
as a young actor,
07:07
I had to learn
07:09
how to be more like
07:11
little, little, little.
07:13
Up to nothing.
07:15
Subtlety is like
07:17
you have to master that
07:19
it's hard to do
07:21
because it's soap.
07:23
How do you do that?
07:25
Over the years, you kind of have to
07:27
look for that.
07:31
You have to prepare.
07:33
You have to know your character very well.
