When the said movie from Mavx Productions started streaming on Netflix, more viewers have appreciated the performances of the three comedians.

This year, Jelson Bay is featured in a movie as the leading man and he shared how he got this role, based on the article from The Latest Chika.

“Nakilala nila ako sa Ang Pangarap Kong Holdap. And they wanted to try something new so nakuha ko yung role as Brix Romero,” Jelson shared. He played the role of a man with unfinished business with his mom who left him when he was a child.

In fulfilling the last wish of his mother, Jelson’s character met Cathy in Morocco, the character played by Sue Ramirez.

Having this role offered to him, the comedian said that at first, he thought it was a prank. “First time the idea (of being a leading man) was introduced to me, akala ko prank lang talaga. Akala ko di totoo,” Jelson said.

For him, it was a risky move to choose him to play the lead role, especially these times. “Siempre sa pagsugal mo sa pelikula ‘pag tumaya ka, kelangan kilala di ba? Pero natuwa ako na nakuha ko yung role,” the comedian added.

Sue also shared that her co-star really prepared for his role in the movie and that she appreciates his professionalism.

“Nag-workshop pa yan si Kuya Jelson sa table manners, nag-John Robert Powers siya for this role. That’s what you call commitment and that’s the type of artist that I look up to — you know, people who prepare and are professional enough to prepare for their role,” the actress revealed about Jelson Bay.
