DREI ARIAS STARS IN DOUBLE TAKE
Kasama si Drei Arias sa Reverse Card bilang John, at sa Al.Ter bilang Terrence.
Kumusta ang pagganap ni Drei sa twinbill na Double Take? Paano siya naka-relate sa mga karakter at kuwento ng dalawang dula?
“This is gonna happen with a huge celebration of me, coming out this Pride Month,” pahayag ni Drea ngayong Hunyo 4, Huwebes, via Messenger.
“As a Genderfluid Pansexual, I believe that the stories of the queer community as much as possible should be done by someone who is part of that very community.
“This is me holding my power and truth.
“This is me telling everyone that you are more than your sexuality, that you can be a serious actor and not a punchline to jokes.”
Ang Double Take ay joint venture ng KhoLab Productions at Artist Playground.

GORGY RULA
Nag-frontal nudity si Drei Arias sa mga pelikulang Don Filipo (2021), Bingwit (2022), at Baka Sakali (2023).
Sa dulang Walong Libong Piso (2025) na itinanghal sa Teatrino, hindi siya nagpasilip ng private part.
Pero sa Double Take twinbill, nag-frontal siya.
First time ba siyang mag-frontal nudity sa entablado? Bakit o paano siya nahikayat na gawin yon?
“It was never a question of how far I can go because I can really go for it,” tugon ni Drei.
“It's a question of how bad does the character and/or material needs me to do it.
“And this material definitely is that material.”
Maliban kay Drei, nasa cast ng Double Take sina CJ Tiongson, Gerald Magallanes, Gerhard Kryssther, Inah Evans, James Ramada, Jarold Brimbuela, John Ven Soco, Johnrey Rivas, at Lance Cabradilla.
Kumusta ang pakikipagtrabaho niya sa co-actors, at direktor na si Paul Jake “PJ” Paule, considering na may mga eksenang maselan o mapangahas?
“I have worked with Direk PJ so he knows my process as an actor,” saad ni Drei.
“I do have the freedom to select choices for my character in Al. Ter and Reverse Card. He has been supportive of what I need to build my character.”

Anu-ano pa ang aasahan kay Drei this year?
Willing ba siya to do more daring projects… on stage or on film?
“As of now, I'm focusing on producing my music, stream HIGH now on Spotify,” sey ni Drei.
“Also attracting materials and projects that narrates the story of the LGBT Community.
“Today, June 4, 2026 is my official sashing ceremony for Mister Gay World Philippines 2026 so I hope people come and support my fight.”
