Simula pa lang ng kaniyang career bilang aktor, mataas na raw ang pangarap ni Ruru Madrid. Ngayong isa na siyang ganap na action star at drama prince, may hinaing pa kaya siya?
Transcript
00:00 I'm being honest, I didn't know you'd be an action star.
00:03 I'm used to being doubted by people.
00:06 No one believes me.
00:07 Really?
00:08 Yeah.
00:09 Because I used to be a patin.
00:11 When I was young, I was bullied because I was thin.
00:15 Here, Roo.
00:17 Yes?
00:18 Use the motorcycle.
00:19 Where will you go?
00:20 See if you're happy.
00:22 If I'm happy, I'll go to the person I love.
00:27 If you're jealous.
00:29 If I'm jealous,
00:31 I might go to the person I'm jealous of.
00:35 Okay, we have with us,
00:44 Black Rider himself.
00:47 Hello, handsome.
00:49 Roo Roo.
00:50 There, it's really...
00:51 It has an effect.
00:53 But Roo, of course,
00:54 after a long time that we've been waiting for Black Rider,
00:59 of course, I've visited you several times on set,
01:04 and finally, Black Rider was released.
01:07 Wow, it's like I'm breathing.
01:12 I'm just very grateful
01:15 also to the good feedbacks I receive
01:20 from our viewers.
01:23 I really appreciate that, Kines.
01:25 Because so far, I don't have negative feedbacks.
01:32 Everyone is just saying that
01:34 it's very new in their eyes.
01:38 Even the moves, the fight scenes,
01:41 which is really our goal.
01:43 We also want to elevate our actual,
01:47 because to those who are watching us internationally,
01:51 we want to level up what we're doing.
01:54 But at the same time,
01:56 we also want to show the theme of 80s, 90s action movies
02:01 that you've watched before.
02:03 The balance of those two,
02:05 it's a bit modern,
02:07 but at the same time, nostalgic.
02:09 In fact, that's when I was surprised with the casting.
02:13 Because it's a mix of newbies,
02:16 and you also have a lot of veteran action stars here.
02:24 Of course, there's Zorin,
02:26 Kierle Gaspi, Raymart Santiago.
02:29 And recently, we've seen that
02:32 you had a scene with Philip Salvador.
02:34 I feel like I'm still in a starstruck
02:37 every time I see them.
02:39 Because of course, growing up,
02:40 they're the ones I watch.
02:42 And now, I'm working.
02:44 I said it,
02:46 I'm just one of those few
02:48 who will become action stars.
02:50 It's a big honor for me.
02:52 And especially,
02:54 they gave me a lot of advice.
02:57 What I can do eventually in my scenes.
03:02 I really feel that.
03:05 Maybe that's what I like the most
03:08 about Black Rider.
03:10 Because there are so many senior actors,
03:12 senior action stars.
03:15 I feel like I'm picking them all up.
03:18 It's like they're giving me something
03:21 that I've always studied.
03:23 I told them,
03:25 "Eventually, I'll be the one
03:27 who gives it to the new generations of actors
03:30 or those who want to be in action."
03:32 I mean, that's my goal.
03:34 Also, we also got influencers.
03:37 Like P-Pie,
03:39 Pink, Salome.
03:41 Because I guess,
03:43 this project,
03:45 we're prioritizing the relatability of the project.
03:49 Every time they watch this project,
03:52 they'll say,
03:54 "That's right. That's what I experienced before."
03:57 For the riders,
03:58 we're telling their stories of life.
04:01 They're getting crazy.
04:03 So, that's our goal
04:06 for this project.
04:08 Of course, there's one there
04:10 that you like in the scene.
04:12 If you had to choose,
04:14 you can't be generic.
04:15 There's one for sure
04:17 that you like in the scene.
04:19 Who is it?
04:20 I'm not going to go around
04:22 asking for names.
04:23 It's Tata Ipe,
04:24 Philip Salvador.
04:25 Of course,
04:27 the last time
04:29 that we worked together,
04:31 I did a scene with him.
04:33 That's a protégé.
04:35 It was already 11 years ago.
04:38 That was 11 years ago?
04:40 Yeah, the protégé was 11 years ago.
04:43 And Tata Ipe still has no co-pass.
04:46 He taught me even my expressions,
04:49 even the way I project
04:51 when there are pictorials,
04:53 even in clothing,
04:55 the way I move,
04:57 the way I stand.
04:58 He said,
04:59 "Son,
05:00 you're going to join the big league."
05:03 He said,
05:04 "This is your dream."
05:07 And he was able to fulfill that dream
05:10 by becoming an action star.
05:12 He said,
05:13 "Being an action star
05:14 doesn't just mean
05:16 you have to be handsome.
05:18 You have to know something.
05:19 You have to know how to move.
05:21 You have to know how to move.
05:23 You have to be skillful
05:25 so that you can do whatever
05:27 the director asks you to do."
05:29 But at the same time,
05:30 the humility of an action star.
05:32 An action star should be
05:34 close to people.
05:36 You should be able to be with people.
05:39 You should be able to approach anyone.
05:42 So I said,
05:44 I appreciated it
05:45 because he was still the same
05:47 when he was with me.
05:49 But at the same time,
05:50 he was so proud of me.
05:52 That's why it was fun.
05:54 You know,
05:55 I've watched some of your action scenes.
05:58 Am I right?
06:00 I see Robin Padilla
06:03 in a way.
06:04 Actually,
06:05 I've read some comments
06:07 that say,
06:08 "New generation"
06:09 of Robin Padilla.
06:11 Did you mean this?
06:13 To be honest,
06:15 no.
06:16 But maybe because
06:17 growing up,
06:18 he was my hero.
06:20 He was my idol.
06:23 I've watched all of his movies.
06:26 So maybe somehow,
06:29 I was able to imitate him.
06:31 You're in the system.
06:33 I'm in the system.
06:34 Subconsciously,
06:35 that's what I'm applying.
06:37 And I don't think it's bad.
06:40 You influenced him.
06:42 Yeah.
06:43 He was a big influence.
06:45 But at the same time,
06:46 we watch a lot of international films
06:48 from Hollywood.
06:50 John Wick,
06:51 Extraction,
06:52 Mission Impossible.
06:54 When it comes to Korea,
06:55 there's Vagabond,
06:57 K2,
06:58 Vincenzo.
06:59 So all of those,
07:01 I really like watching action.
07:03 So maybe all of those
07:05 are coming out.
07:06 I had a conversation
07:07 with Kylie Padilla.
07:09 And she said you're crazy.
07:11 She said she saw her dad
07:13 in some of your scenes.
07:15 Is that true?
07:16 Yeah.
07:17 Even back then,
07:18 Encantadia,
07:19 she always said that.
07:20 But here in Black Rider,
07:22 it was the first time
07:23 Kylie and I worked together.
07:25 It was a full-on action
07:27 teleserie.
07:29 So I did a lot of scenes here.
07:31 I had a fight.
07:33 And she saw my moves.
07:35 And she always told me,
07:37 "Yeah,
07:38 that's how Papa moves.
07:40 That's how I move,
07:41 I stand, I stand."
07:43 I didn't mean to do that.
07:45 But maybe subconsciously,
07:47 that's what comes out
07:48 because she's so much idolized.
07:51 Mm-hmm.
07:52 You've done a lot of action characters.
07:56 Briefly,
07:58 how would you differentiate her
08:00 from Lolong
08:01 when it comes to
08:03 making the action,
08:04 the fight scenes?
08:06 Well, actually,
08:07 the difference between Black Rider
08:10 and Lolong is big.
08:11 Because Lolong
08:12 never throws a gun.
08:14 Mm-hmm.
08:15 The whole time,
08:16 when he fights,
08:17 he always has an arnis.
08:19 That's it.
08:20 Mm-hmm.
08:21 He has an arnis.
08:22 Who's more fierce?
08:24 Me.
08:26 They're very different.
08:29 Think about it.
08:31 Black Rider
08:32 has a sword,
08:37 he has a gun,
08:39 he's riding a motorcycle.
08:40 He's fierce.
08:41 But of course,
08:42 you've been through a lot.
08:44 You're not fierce.
08:45 [laughs]
08:47 That's a different kind of fierce.
08:48 He's riding a motorcycle now.
08:50 He's fierce.
08:51 Yes, you're still scared.
08:53 But of course,
08:54 Black Rider's mysterious side,
08:58 he's dark.
08:59 He's always fighting.
09:01 He's a stealth.
09:02 Yes.
09:03 He's always fighting.
09:05 He's always ready to fight.
09:07 And he's very skillful.
09:09 I mean,
09:10 Lolong can do arnis,
09:11 hand-to-hand combat.
09:12 Black Rider
09:14 is very skillful.
09:16 Everything from
09:17 fighting with a gun,
09:20 fighting with a sword,
09:23 to knife,
09:24 to cali,
09:25 to hand-to-hand combat.
09:27 You're learning cali?
09:29 Bianca and I are just doing
09:31 the right one.
09:32 I'm already starting to train that.
09:35 Actually, I'm so in love with cali.
09:37 Even on set,
09:38 when I'm not doing anything,
09:40 I'm just doing drills.
09:42 I'm just doing drills.
09:43 I'm doing it over and over again
09:45 so that at least my body gets used to it,
09:47 so that I have muscle memory.
09:49 I enjoyed it.
09:50 I really enjoyed cali.
09:52 Mm-mm.
09:53 Uh, okay.
09:55 Ru,
09:57 maybe we can debate on this topic.
09:59 I know Black Rider
10:01 because he's riding a motorcycle.
10:04 Are bikers more popular with women?
10:08 Do you think there's a plus
10:10 when you're riding?
10:12 Maybe.
10:13 Because when you're riding,
10:15 you're riding a motorcycle.
10:16 So there's a plus factor.
10:17 But I feel like
10:18 motorcycles are also a factor.
10:20 Because when you say motorcycle,
10:22 it's like a bruce.
10:24 Right?
10:25 Yes.
10:26 It's like that.
10:27 It's like, "Boy."
10:28 I grew up with a dad,
10:30 with a father who's always riding a motorcycle.
10:33 So I feel like he's just normal.
10:36 And he doesn't add up to his handsome points.
10:39 Yes, yes, yes.
10:40 When I see a rider,
10:42 in fact,
10:44 you know,
10:45 I know a riding app
10:48 that has riders who are women.
10:50 Yes, yes, yes.
10:52 There are a lot of them.
10:53 That's what I was surprised about.
10:55 I was like, "Wow!"
10:57 Really?
10:58 Of course, there are a lot of...
11:00 If Bianca finds out,
11:01 she'll buy a motorcycle.
11:03 Oh my!
11:04 Even if you don't tell me,
11:05 Nelson,
11:06 it's already planned.
11:07 Bianca will buy a motorcycle?
11:09 She'll buy a motorcycle.
11:11 Oh my God!
11:13 But like I said,
11:15 there are a lot of people who say
11:18 that riding a motorcycle is dangerous.
11:21 So it's like,
11:22 you know,
11:23 it's like you're a rebel.
11:25 When you ride a motorcycle,
11:26 of course, it's dangerous,
11:28 but you still do it.
11:29 So you're risking your life.
11:31 So you're brave.
11:32 You're cool.
11:33 There's that.
11:34 I think you...
11:35 Am I right that you went through riding school?
11:38 Yes, Nelson.
11:39 Even when I was 18,
11:42 that's when I started riding a motorcycle.
11:44 That's when I got my first bike.
11:46 I think I bought it when I was 18.
11:49 Then,
11:50 I enjoyed riding it.
11:52 I rode motocross.
11:54 But for this particular project,
11:58 I went to California Superbike School
12:00 when they went to the Philippines.
12:02 So every year,
12:03 they go here.
12:04 I was with them.
12:06 Brother Kim,
12:07 Boss Shintaro,
12:09 Brother Dong,
12:10 we went to California Superbike School.
12:12 Then, Carlo Gonzales.
12:14 There were a lot, actually.
12:16 Actually, it's not what you usually learn
12:20 when you start riding a motorcycle.
12:22 So you need to have an idea.
12:25 You need to know how to ride a motorcycle
12:26 before you go to California Superbike School
12:28 because they teach you things that you don't know.
12:32 Like me,
12:33 since I was 18,
12:35 I started riding a motorcycle.
12:36 But I only went to California Superbike School
12:39 after how many years?
12:40 Like 7 years
12:41 since I started.
12:42 I didn't know a lot about riding a motorcycle.
12:44 They have what they call a counter-steer
12:49 in big bikes.
12:50 That's what I learned when it comes to big bikes.
12:52 But when it comes to dirt bikes,
12:57 which is what I also use in Black Rider,
12:59 that's the motocross training.
13:02 I trained in an antipolo before.
13:05 That's where we really play.
13:08 Michelle D. also mentioned that
13:11 everyone has to go through riding training
13:18 or bike training.
13:20 Because it's not just for riding,
13:22 but also for safety.
13:24 Because that's what people forget now.
13:27 Like when you buy a motorbike or a big bike,
13:31 it's no longer there.
13:33 It's just on the road.
13:35 Actually, it's better
13:37 to have something to learn before riding a motorcycle.
13:42 You can learn something.
13:43 But maybe you know us Filipinos.
13:46 Because we're all one,
13:49 you can learn everything on the internet.
13:52 So I didn't go to school.
13:55 But after,
13:57 like 7 years after I went to California Superbike School,
14:00 I learned a lot.
14:02 So it's important to have something to learn.
14:04 But of course, we know that
14:06 we Filipinos don't have everything.
14:08 There's a school fee because it's expensive.
14:12 We're just brave when it comes to these things.
14:15 Here's Ru.
14:17 "Use the motorcycle to where you're going
14:20 if you're A, sad."
14:24 If I'm sad, I can go to...
14:28 Tagaytay.
14:31 Why Tagaytay?
14:33 Overlooking, relaxing.
14:35 What's your favorite Tagaytay?
14:37 B, if you're angry.
14:39 If I'm angry,
14:41 I feel like I can't go anywhere.
14:43 I'll just ride the motorcycle.
14:45 I'll dance.
14:46 I don't care.
14:47 I'll just run out of gas.
14:49 Yes.
14:50 C, if you're happy.
14:52 If I'm happy,
14:55 I'll go to the person I love.
14:58 We already know that.
15:01 Let's not do the initials.
15:03 We already know that.
15:05 Okay, if you're hungry.
15:08 If I'm hungry,
15:11 I'll just go on a road trip
15:14 around Manila.
15:16 Maybe Binondo.
15:18 You've already done that?
15:20 I've done that in...
15:23 In Marilaque.
15:25 There's a lot of food there.
15:27 If you're riding a motorcycle,
15:29 you'll ride and eat.
15:32 E, if you're jealous.
15:35 If I'm jealous,
15:38 I might go to the person I'm jealous of.
15:42 You haven't done that yet.
15:46 No, I haven't.
15:47 I thought you were going to Jack Roberto
15:49 and enroll in JRU.
15:51 I'll enroll in JRU.
15:53 Okay, if you're going to pray.
15:57 I'll go to our church.
16:01 Yes.
16:02 Okay, G if you're going on vacation.
16:06 Elio.
16:08 You've already done that?
16:10 You've already ridden a motorcycle?
16:11 I haven't been to Elio yet.
16:13 What's the farthest place you've been?
16:15 The farthest?
16:18 Quezon?
16:23 That's far.
16:25 Because I'm a mariquina,
16:28 so I'll pass by the back.
16:30 It's a big place.
16:32 It's up to Infanta.
16:34 Then, Quezon.
16:37 You've already taken Bianca?
16:40 Yes, I've taken her.
16:41 Really? Finally?
16:43 You're not afraid anymore?
16:45 Not really.
16:47 Or is she still afraid?
16:50 She's a small person, but she's brave.
16:53 Okay, last.
16:57 If you're a simple person,
16:59 where would you bring your motorcycle?
17:01 Where I grew up.
17:03 Mariquina, Tanday,
17:06 it's next to the river.
17:08 Actually, I really do it.
17:10 To be honest,
17:12 every time there's a new blessing coming to me,
17:17 a new project,
17:19 I'm busy,
17:21 sometimes,
17:23 there are times
17:25 I go back to where I started.
17:28 To remember the things that...
17:31 It humbles you, right?
17:32 Yes.
17:33 For example, let's say,
17:35 tomorrow, there's a big event.
17:38 For example, the first day of taping,
17:41 or the first story,
17:42 or something big that's new to me.
17:45 I go back to our place
17:48 to remember how we were before.
17:51 Then, I won't take for granted the opportunity
17:55 that was given to me.
17:57 I'll pour everything out.
17:59 Because I know the hardships I went through
18:01 before I got here.
18:02 I know our life before I got here.
18:06 So, it's like it reminds me of everything.
18:08 It also keeps me grounded.
18:13 It's something that will make you grounded.
18:16 It won't make you think too much.
18:17 You'll know where you came from.
18:20 You know, I'm vocal about it.
18:25 I know artists who are really grounded.
18:30 Like, even if you say,
18:32 "This person has already reached this point,"
18:34 you're the same Patpatin Ruru that I know.
18:38 How you treated me when I was young.
18:43 Of course, there's bad days.
18:45 There are times when you're not okay.
18:47 There are times when you're angry.
18:51 But I know that before I got into this industry,
18:57 this job,
18:58 I know what I want.
19:02 I just want to help my family.
19:04 But when I got here,
19:05 I realized that there's more to it.
19:07 That's the love for the job I have.
19:09 And I don't want to lose that.
19:11 I said, "Kuya Nelson, talent can be learned."
19:16 From acting, singing, dancing, hosting, everything.
19:23 But being together,
19:25 knowing how to be together,
19:28 you won't learn that.
19:31 You'll be grounded.
19:33 And I think my family is a big factor in that.
19:36 Because my family is so simple.
19:39 I didn't grow up rich.
19:42 I didn't grow up with money.
19:43 I know how hard life is.
19:46 For me, we're all equal.
19:49 So how can I treat the boss,
19:52 the one who pays us?
19:54 I know that the same treatment to everyone.
20:00 There's no advantage.
20:02 We're all equal here.
20:06 I know that we all go through something.
20:09 There are times when we're really struggling in life.
20:12 The work we do is hard.
20:14 So might as well treat people with kindness.
20:19 And that's what will bring you back.
20:22 Not just respect.
20:24 With kindness.
20:25 That's different.
20:26 Of course, it's basic to treat everyone with respect.
20:31 That's your job.
20:33 But to treat everyone with kindness,
20:35 that's a little extra.
20:36 And that endears you to people.
20:40 Yeah.
20:41 I know, Ru,
20:43 this is just the beginning of Black Rider.
20:46 But I want to hear it from you.
20:48 What else are we going to do?
20:51 Of course, you saw what happened last week.
20:55 In our pilot week.
20:57 The pacing was really fast.
21:00 There were a lot of new characters.
21:04 But if you got full in our pilot week,
21:08 there were action, drama,
21:12 and fun.
21:15 And we had a lot of laughs.
21:19 We're making sure that this week,
21:23 we're going to double or triple it.
21:27 And that's what we want to make sure of all the actors.
21:32 That they always have something new to show.
21:35 We want to make sure that they're always on top.
21:40 Because when we're making a project,
21:44 we want the audience to be able to relate.
21:48 We want them to relate.
21:50 We want them to see something new.
21:52 We're already on top.
21:54 So this is still going to grow.
21:56 Yes, it's still going to grow.

24:51 Is there any question that's brewing in your mind right now
24:53 Is there any question that's brewing in your mind right now
24:55 that you want to put out in the open?
24:57 Any question at all.
24:59 Question for me, for yourself, or for anyone.
25:01 Question for me, for yourself, or for anyone.
25:03 Let's try to answer it.
25:05 I want to ask you a question, Enelson.
25:07 Go.
25:09 Of course, you saw me from the very beginning of my career.
25:11 Of course, you saw me from the very beginning of my career.
25:13 Of course, you saw me from the very beginning of my career.
25:15 I told you, I didn't know you were going to be an action star.
25:17 I told you, I didn't know you were going to be an action star.
25:19 I'm a bit confused.
25:21 Did you expect that
25:23 Did you expect that
25:25 after 11 years,
25:27 I'll be doing action TV shows?
25:29 Or did you expect that
25:31 I'll be in the industry for a long time?
25:33 I have a feeling that
25:35 you'll be in the industry for a long time.
25:37 But if I'm going to base it on
25:39 But if I'm going to base it on
25:41 the fact that I met you,
25:43 I'm being honest.
25:45 I'm also telling you this sometimes.
25:47 I didn't know
25:49 that you were going to be an action star.
25:51 When you did that above the clouds,
25:53 I thought, "This kid has potential. He's good at acting."
25:55 "He can do this."
25:57 But to make an action scene,
25:59 I told you
26:01 when you became a grandpa,
26:03 I was wrong.
26:05 Because you said,
26:09 everything you learn, everything you prepare,
26:11 everything you prepare,
26:13 you can do it.
26:15 It's just your imagination.
26:17 You're right.
26:19 There's a moment when
26:21 Bianca and I talked.
26:23 Sometimes,
26:25 I feel like
26:27 if I feel something,
26:29 I'll say it.
26:31 I won't hold back.
26:33 Sometimes, I say things
26:35 that are hard to believe.
26:37 Bianca even said,
26:39 "Huh? Is that true?"
26:41 But because she knows me,
26:43 she always tells me,
26:45 "In fairness to you,
26:47 everything you say,
26:49 you can do it."
26:51 And I guess,
26:53 that comes from
26:55 my underdog mentality.
26:57 Because I'm used to losing.
27:01 I'm used to being doubted by people.
27:05 No one believes me.
27:07 Really?
27:09 Because I used to be a party boy.
27:11 I used to get bullied
27:13 because I'm thin.
27:15 And I used to dream big.
27:17 So, did you really get bullied before?
27:21 When you were young?
27:23 I guess, the bullying that...
27:25 For example, if there are older people
27:27 who call me...
27:29 And they have a bigger body than you.
27:31 Like a...
27:33 Like a bird.
27:35 Like a bird.
27:37 So, I was like...
27:39 "When the time comes,
27:41 I'll have a bigger body than you."
27:43 That's what I always thought.
27:45 I'll accept the bashing.
27:47 I'll accept whatever you say.
27:49 If you doubt me.
27:51 But I'll prove it
27:53 with my actions.
27:55 I'm not the type of person
27:57 who will say, "You're so arrogant."
27:59 No. I'll defend myself.
28:01 That's when I realized that
28:03 I'm not just
28:05 proving myself to them.
28:07 But also,
28:09 I'm proving it to myself that I can do it.
28:11 Like, even
28:13 when I was in "Kantanya",
28:15 they told me that
28:17 I'm not deserving for the role of Ibaro.
28:19 So, I did everything.
28:21 I trained.
28:23 I made my body look good.
28:25 So that I can be deserving for that role.
28:27 At first,
28:29 I trained because I was bashed.
28:31 But eventually,
28:33 because of that show,
28:35 it was the first time
28:37 that I won the Best Actor Award
28:39 because of a series.
28:41 So, you know,
28:43 that's where
28:45 my gasoline comes from.
28:47 To work harder.
28:49 Every time someone
28:51 doubts me,
28:53 every time someone
28:55 belittles me,
28:57 that's where my gasoline comes from.
28:59 I don't know. It's like I'm not proving myself to you.
29:01 I'm not proving myself to myself
29:03 that I'm deserving for the role.
29:05 Sometimes, you know,
29:07 people think
29:09 that if someone bashes you
29:11 or says something negative about you,
29:13 if you believe
29:15 what they said,
29:17 you're two of them.
29:19 So, we're asked,
29:21 you don't have to work against yourself.
29:23 Work with what you have.
29:25 Work with yourself.
29:27 Your inner self.
29:29 And then, prove it to yourself
29:31 that, "Ah, wait. I can do better.
29:33 I'm going to be a better person."
29:35 And someday,
29:37 many people will say,
29:39 "Oh, no."
29:41 Because, maybe, Nelson,
29:43 even if no one
29:45 believes in you,
29:47 as long as you believe in yourself,
29:49 you can still get it.
29:51 As long as no one
29:53 pushes you,
29:55 if you prove what you're doing,
29:57 it's impossible
29:59 to get it.
30:01 You just have to believe.
30:03 And now, two people believe in you.
30:05 You and Bianca.
30:07 Many people believe in you.
30:11 Yes!
30:13 Anyway, Ru,
30:15 congratulations.
30:17 I can go on and on
30:19 by saying,
30:21 I'm so proud of you.
30:23 You're one of the people we're looking up to.
30:25 Thank you.
30:27 I mean, for being
30:29 a true friend for the two of us.
30:31 I mean, ever since,
30:33 I know that
30:35 you believe in the two of us.
30:37 Of course. Ru,
30:39 thank you very much again.
30:41 Bye-bye.
30:43 [Music]
