"Ito na yata ang pinakamasayang job na nagawa ko," says an
ecstatic Angel Locsin regarding Love Me Again (Land Down Under),
her first movie under Star Cinema. She appeared to be relaxed and confident
even though the actress was about to answer The Buzz's Tough Ten
questions during the January 4 episode of the show.
It was then announced that Angel and Piolo Pascual will be
conducting mall tours to promote their movie, which is considered to be the
opening salvo of Star Cinema for 2009.
On January 10, the love team partners will be in SM Mall of Asia, January
11 at Trinoma and on January 13 they will be in SM Cebu.
"One month kami sa Bukidnon and mga one month din kami sa Australia so ibang klase," recalls Angel.
For the first part of the interview conducted by Boy Abunda, Angel vividly described the love scene that she shot with the matinee idol. It took them two days to shoot their passionate love scene, which has two scenes edited out by management.
Boy: Tough Ten Question No. 10: Bakit ka nanginig nang gawin n'yo ni Piolo Pascual sa pelikulang Love Me Again?
Angel: Kuya Boy naman, sino namang hindi manginginig dun? Ilagay mo ang sarili mo sa posisyon ko dun, manginginig ka talaga.
Boy agreed by saying, "Hindi ako manginginig, hihimatayin ako!"
Angel: Kung hindi ko siguro kailangan gawin yun, baka na-comatose ako. Iba yung pakiramdam talaga...Ako po yata ang nakaubos ng negatibo ng Star Cinema kasi nung hinahawakan ko na yung abs ni PJ...
Sabi kasi ni Direk Rory Quintos, ‘Gel ang tigas ng kamay mo.' May workshop pa yung kamay ko.
Boy: Winorkshop yung kamay mo para lang hawakan ang abs ni Piolo...
Angel: Nakaka-tense talaga at naka-ganun talaga si PJ. Ang amo-amo ng mukha at naka-ngiti lang siya. Yun na ata ang highlight ng pelikula namin. Iba yung feeling dito sa pelikula kasi sa Lobo, may nagawa na kaming love scene pero different talaga, e.
The first part of the movie was shot in Bukidnon, an area in Mindanao where cowboys continue to live in ranches. The film arm of ABS-CBN opted to shoot the film in the municipality of Impasug-ong, dubbed as the "Home of the Country's Finest Cowboys." Key scenes of Land Down Under were shot in Darwin, Australia where there is now an existing OFW community.
Piolo and Angel trained extensively for horseback riding at the Manila Polo Club under Olympian Vic Barba and Mikee Conjuangco.
Love Me Again (Land Down Under) is the love story of Arah and Migo, a young couple who developed feelings for each other while living in Bukidnon. However, financial problems force Arah to move to Australia and settle there to begin anew. Migo follows her to the Land Down Under and confesses his love for her. Will Arah accept his love? Will they stay in Australia or will they return to Bukidnon?
Also starring in the movie are Ricky Davao as the Australian rancher who employs Arah and develops a fondness for her. Dimples Romana is cast as the Filipina working in Australia who helps Arah adjust to the new continent. Ronnie Lazaro, Dominic Ochoa, Erich Gonzales, AJ Dee, Nash Aguas, and John Manalo are also part of this film.
Piolo Pascual and Angel Locsin's Love Me Again will open in 150 theaters on January 15, 2009. The premiere is scheduled on January 14 at SM Megamall.
