Piolo Pascual talked about his career choice
Kapamilya A-list actor Piolo Pascual revealed why his planned early retirement did not happen.
Piolo is one of the most in-demand actors of this generation. His most recent project is the series Pamilya Sagrado. Throughout his acting career, he was able to prove his versatility.
There was a time when Piolo expressed that he wanted to retire from being an actor before reaching the age of 40. However, he continued doing different projects despite having that statement.
Based on the article in Pang-Masa, Piolo Pascual shared the projects he still wants to do in the future.
The A-list revealed that he is currently working on a project featuring the life of former police chief and now Baguio Mayor Benjamin Magalong. He shared that he already talked to the Mayor about this.
Piolo also wanted to portray the character of former President Ferdinand Marcos and he has been vocal about this in past interviews. Another project that he has been anticipating to happen is something with drama queen Judy Ann Santos.
“I’ll drop everything for her. I mean, I owe her so much, and I miss working with her if I’m given a chance, anytime, in a heartbeat,” Piolo expressed his eagerness to work with Juday again.
The actor said that he is more excited about doing projects now compared to the time when he was thinking of retiring when he reached 40.
In line with this, Piolo said that perhaps when he mentioned retirement back then, it was just a wake up call for him.
“I was so, parang, I wanted to leave while I was still on top of my game. And I was humbled by the Lord. Ang dami pang projects, how dare you resist or refuse work that comes your way? You can be a conduit or a vessel for some projects that can help people, other people, or for shows,” the actor shared.
From that, he felt like he found a renewed excitement. During the pandemic, he realized that it was boring when he was not doing anything and he did not want to be unproductive.
Piolo Pascual said that he is trying to bring his A-game every time so that he will not have the feeling of regret after.
