“Gusto ko siya sanang maka-work sa movie kasi nasubaybayan ko halos lahat ng movies nila ni John Lloyd Cruz,” Alden said in a report on GMA News.

Bea on the other hand said that she wants to work with Alden after seeing him in the film “Hello, Love, Goodbye”.

“Hindi niya alam gusto ko rin talaga siyang makatrabaho. I have seen his movie with Kathryn and I thought he did a very good job with the character. I wanna be able to have that chance to actually work with him and develop characters with him,” said Bea.

“Sa totoo lang, nakaka-pressure at kanina, coming here, I was so anxious. Kinakabahan talaga ako kasi ’di ko rin alam what to expect but then, right now, I feel comfortable with Alden, with the ones I just met, the bosses of these three big film outfits,” she said.

The two are set to star in the Filipino adaptation of the movie ‘Pure Soul’.
