Maine Mendoza said she learned a lot about Coco Martin, her leading man in the Metro Manila Film Festival 2018 entry Jack Em Poy: The Puliscredibles.
The GMA-7 star described ABS-CBN actor Coco as a "gentlemen."
She said, "Marami akong na discover sa kanya kasi first time ko rin to work with him, and sobrang bait niya. Sobrang gentleman niya.
"Nakakatawa kasi hindi niya ako trinato na parang iba kahit bago ako sa showbiz at kahit taga-7 ako..."
With this experience, Maine expressed her interest in accepting more opportunities that would let her work with talents from ABS-CBN.
She said, "Basta kung sino yung hindi ko pa nakakasama, gusto ko rin ma-experience [na makatrabaho].
"Lalo na kahit yung mga artista from the other network, para maiba naman."

NEXT ACTION STAR?
Maine revealed that they had just wrapped up the film last Sunday, October 14, and the Kapuso actress-host looked forward to seeing the finished film.
"Sobrang cliche din man pakinggan, pero pinaghirapan din [yung movie]," she remarked.
"Na-enjoy ko siya. For some reason na enjoy ko siya..."
Maine then hoped the film wouldn't be her last action flick in her filmography, "Sana makagawa ako nang legit na action film."
