The tandem of John Lloyd Cruz and Sarah Geronimo will once again thrill fans as the two reunite for the upcoming movie titled It Takes a Man and a Woman. John Lloyd and Sarah will reprise their roles as Miggy and Laida in the third installment of this popular franchise.

In an interview with ABS-CBN News last February 27, John Lloyd remarked "Medyo matagal din kaming hindi nagkasama. Parang pelikula lang din ito na naninibago na naman, dalawang characters and dalawang tao na magsasama ulit." He admitted that it feels good to be working with Sarah again.

Both celebrities said that a lot of changes have already happened to the lives of Migs and Laida.

John pointed out, "May konting time lapse pero hindi malinaw kung gaano katagal. Ang alam ko three years mula A Very Special Love. Basta may time lapse and sa simula ng storya, doon niyo makikita kung ano ang pagbabago."

The host of Sarah G Live commented, "Sa bawat relationship naman laging may changes 'di ba? Ito may time lapse so makikita natin kung ano ang pagbabago kay Laida at sa relationship nila."

Do they feel pressure to match the success of their two previous films, A Very Special Love and You Changed My Life?


Sarah admitted, "Sa lahat naman po ng proyekto laging may apprehensions, may pressure, may kaba kung mapapangatawanan mo ba ang role na ibinigay sa iyo. Pero nagtitiwala naman po ako sa director ko, sa co-actors ko, sa leading man ko."

On the other hand, John Lloyd said, "Ako gusto ko lang mag-concentrate sa idea na maraming naghihintay dito. Lahat kami nag-aabang din kami and naghihintay. We're all very excited. I'd rather focus on that kaysa sa ibang bagay."

BOX-OFFICE SUCCESS. A Very Special Love was shown in 2008, followed by its tremendously successful sequel, You Changed My Life, shown in 2009. Both movie were directed by Cathy Garcia-Molina.

In A Very Special Love, Sarah plays the role of Laida Magtalas, a kind-hearted young woman who works hard to provide for her family. Meeting and working for her so-called "Prince Charming" in the person of Miggy Montenegro (John Lloyd) changed their lives forever. Laida worked as an editorial assistant for Mig's magazine called The Bachelor, which his family owns.


The movie earned P180 million at the tills. For this reason, John Lloyd and Sarah were hailed as Box Office King and Queen of 2008.

Their second movie, You Changed My Life, also became a certified hit with its gross of P209 million. Once again, both celebrities clinched the title Box Office King and Queen for the second time.

These romantic comedies were co-produced by Star Cinema and Viva Films. The third installment of their movie is expected to be released by June or July 2012.

    MissHugoBacungan 03/05/2012 | 07:29 AM May SAWA factor na ang tema ng movie story ng loveteam nina JLC at Sarah Geronimo. Most likely, baka MATULAD yan sa box office returns ng movie nina Judy Ann at Ryan na My HouseHusband na temang KKK at SSS, na naka P40million lang sa box office. SAWA na ang moviegoers sa temang ganun, they want something different. In FACT, mukhang nag-uumpisa na ang PAGKASAWA ng tao kay JLC, dahil yung latest movie niya na Unofficially Yours ay HINDI naging kasing lakas ng EXPECTATIONS ng mga producers at fans sa box office, ni hindi nga yata inabot yung kalahati ng kita ng AVSL! ....NING ANG UNOFFICIALL YOURS OVER 100 MILLION NA INABOT..ANU PINAGBUBUTCHHE MO NA MABABA KINITA NITO..PANG MIND CONDITIONING BA YAN NA PAUSO NA FLOP ANG OVIE..HAHAHAHA..MAHIYA KA NAMAN SA BARYANG KINIKITA NG MARIAN MOVIES..HAHAHAHAHA..SPELL BITTER.

    si john lloyd nalang lagi. star cinema earnings is down, hanggat di pa sila makahanap ng new bankable star, si john lloyd nalang muna sila mag iinvest, anyway, kahit super padded ang figures, kumikita naman talaga movies dahil kay john lloyd.

    Bakit hindi si John Lloyd and Shaina ang pagtambalin? Si Srah ay identified na kay Gerald. Ano ba naman ang mga taga Star Magic mga selosa kasi ang mga director doon. Ayaw na magkatuluyan ang tunay na nagmamahalan kaya pag nagkagustuhan na pinaghihiwalay like Kim and Gerald.

    bakit Popstar Princess pa rin ang title ni Sarah? swak na kanya ang titulong POPSTAR QUEEN, or Queen of Philippine Pop! Ito namang si JLC, naturingang mahusay na actor, pero hanggang ngayon pa-cute pa rin ang movie na ginagawa. Tumatanda ka na Lloydie, pero hanggang ngayon di ka pa rin nakakagawa ng pelikulang maipagmamalaki mo bilang alagad ng sining. maano ba namang kahit isang quality film ay isingit mo sa buong buhay ng career mo. Di nya yata alam na si Alma Moreno ay sandamakmak ang BOQ award, pero nasan na ito bilang artist, ni wala yata kahit isang pelikulang binabalik-balikan ng kritiko o ng akademya. hay John LLoyd, wake-up. kahit isang film na award-winning pls...
