00:05 What did you prepare for Bakulaw's role?
00:09 For Bakulaw's role, first of all, I attended Ms. Anna's workshop just to get to know my character.
00:16 And after, I made a background, like a whole background where Bakulaw was born, how old he is,
00:22 who are his friends when he was little.
00:25 So you did a backstory.
00:27 That's my preparation. And then I also added the things Ms. Anna taught me, like externals,
00:33 what is the animal for Bakulaw.
00:36 So what is the animal for Bakulaw?
00:38 Of course, gorilla.
00:40 Gorilla!
00:41 Okay, but Bruce, my question is, I've been stalking your socials.
00:47 You were still young and a bit skinny.
00:50 Yes.
00:51 Is this role part of the buff?
00:56 I can say it's part of it.
00:59 But at first, I just started transforming my body for myself.
01:04 Because I had an experience when I was little.
01:08 I was so skinny and people used to always tell me, "Why are you so skinny? Do you eat?"
01:14 Like, "You're so small. How can you be an artist if you're so skinny?"
01:19 So of course, I was like, not bullied, but I felt it in my heart.
01:24 So ever since, I said, "I don't want to be like that. I want to be like my dad. I want to be like my brothers.
01:30 I want to be a little stronger and bigger."
01:32 We'll go there later. "I don't want to be like my dad."
01:35 Yes, yes, yes.
01:36 Joanne, how did you prepare for this?
01:40 Oh, with this one, I talked, we, Director Luis and I talked before doing the show.
01:48 We talked about, because we wanted to do a contra vida, which is not straightforward, which is very desperate.
01:55 How can we change it from the other characters I've done before, which is very desperate.
02:00 So where did you get to? Because Leon is still scary.
02:03 He's scary, but we wanted to get to the point where we can put our hearts.
02:08 Ah, okay.
02:09 We can put our hearts, we can put our vulnerability, that he's vulnerable.
02:13 We can find his vulnerable side.
02:16 We had a common denominator, which is Christy.
02:20 Yeah, the shout you made when we started with Christy, that's there.
02:24 Because other shouts that are vulnerable, right?
02:27 "Christy!"
02:28 You did something different earlier. I noticed that.
02:31 Well, I don't...
02:32 How'd you do it?
02:33 Huh?
02:34 Earlier, you did it very well.
02:36 Christy, I don't know. Sometimes when you're in the moment, you just do.
02:40 You don't plan it, right?
02:41 No, she doesn't plan it. And then, sometimes it just comes out in our scenes.
02:46 "Ah, it's really different." You noticed that earlier.
02:49 The shout was different. Then the shout with Christy, the shout with my colleagues.
02:54 So we found her. That's the common denominator that we came up with with the director.
03:00 Loris, Christy is really the one who will give humanity to Leon.
03:06 Joem, Bruce, congratulations.
03:09 Thank you.
03:10 And I hope we can support my wife.
03:13 That's 9.35, Monday through Thursday, GMA Prime.
03:19 This is just before, or after Love Die Repeat.
03:24 Before we do fast talk, this is just quick.
03:27 Why don't you have social media, Joem?
03:30 Oh, I decided...
03:33 Honestly, Tito Boy, it's for...
03:36 Wait, I'll just put it in order.
03:37 Joem, my executive assistant, he was in a conversation with friends.
03:40 They said that if there's no social media, it's sexy.
03:46 Hey, hey.
03:47 Thank you, Joem.
03:48 [Laughter]
03:50 Okay, go ahead.
03:51 No, why? I guess it's for my mental health.
03:55 Having a social media is like going to a battlefield.
03:59 It's like driving in EDSA, you need to be prepared for everything that will happen.
04:04 I mean, with all the...
04:06 Of course, there are a lot of comments and everything.
04:08 It really affects me as a person.
04:10 So you decided?
04:11 I decided to turn it off, to delete it.
04:14 And then I just focused on Meryl.
04:16 I focused on my baby with my family.
04:19 It's a decision, it's a choice.
04:21 Yes, it's a choice and I'm happy right now.
04:24 Right.
