The announcement came with the release of the movie’s official trailer, which also confirms the long-awaited reunion of Anne Curtis and Jericho Rosales.

Written and directed by Irene Villamor, the film serves as Anne’s first movie project since the 2019 Metro Manila Film Festival entry “The Mall, The Merrier.”

It also brings her back together with Jericho, following their previous collaborations in the 2008 historical film “Baler” and the 2011 drama series “Green Rose.”

The newly released trailer opens in black and white, showing Jericho’s character Eric waiting for Anne’s Ellie while she is stuck in traffic.

Eric sends a message that reads, "Love you still."

His voiceover later reflects on the imbalance in their relationship.

"Dahil ako ang mas nag-mahal, ako ang laging naghihintay."

As Cup of Joe’s song “Multo” plays, the trailer moves between tender memories and heavier moments.

"For me, saying 'I love you' has become a question," Eric said, admitting uncertainty.

Ellie, on the other hand, expresses her desire for clarity when she says, "Look, I just want my life to make sense."

Eric responds in a separate scene with, "I love you. That should make sense."

The trailer also briefly introduces Catriona Gray’s character, who appears to be Eric’s co-worker, hinting at her role in the story.

Ellie delivers a final, telling line when she tells Eric, "I think we're just too much for each other."

“The Loved One” opens in Philippine cinemas on February 11, positioning it as a timely release for Valentine’s weekend moviegoers.

Catriona Gray is a multifaceted public figure in the Philippines, known for her work as a beauty queen, singer, performer, host, and brand endorser. She gained international recognition after representing the country and winning the Miss Universe 2018 crown.

In a previous development, Gray took part in the Trillion Peso March, where she joined calls for greater transparency and accountability from government officials. She also shared her stance on social media, where she criticized what she described as empty promises and performative actions by leaders, while stressing the public’s right to know how tax funds are being used. The beauty queen urged authorities to take real steps in addressing corruption and to uphold the principles of good governance. Photos from the protest, taken by actor Khalil Ramos, accompanied her post.

In a separate update, Gray once again used her platform to speak out following a series of typhoons, earthquakes, and floods that affected several areas in the Philippines. She highlighted the importance of improved disaster preparedness, clearer public spending, and stronger accountability among leaders. Gray also encouraged Filipinos not to accept government neglect as normal and to continue demanding responsible leadership. She further appealed to the public to help spread awareness and extend support to communities still recovering from the disasters.
