“Ako, para sa akin, kasi may tiwala na kami sa isa’t isa eh. So that’s the best part about working with your friends. Someone that you really have trust in, someone that trusts you,” the actor said during the special event.
His statement highlighted how their off-screen connection translated into a more authentic portrayal on-screen.
He also shared that the process felt easier because they were already familiar with each other.
“So it was such a good process na wala po ‘yung getting to know stage. Wala na ‘yun. We’re already past that. Kasi marami na kami pinagdaanan nito ni Xyriel, hindi lang alam ng mga tao. Pero I grew up knowing who Xyriel Manabat was and now naging leading lady ko pa siya,” he added.
Their collaboration in the Netflix film marks a meaningful milestone for both stars.
With an existing friendship as their foundation, Kyle and Xyriel expressed excitement about bringing their characters to life and sharing their natural chemistry with audiences.
Xyriel Manabat first rose to prominence in the entertainment industry after joining Star Circle Quest: Search for the Next Kiddie Idol in 2009, where she finished in third place. The former child star received acclaim for her acting in 100 Days to Heaven and Ikaw Ay Pag-Ibig. She later became part of the cast of Dirty Linen and, together with young actor Zaijian Jaranilla, earned positive feedback from viewers of Senior High.
In an earlier interview, Xyriel—now more confident and self-assured—spoke on Pinoy Big Brother: Celebrity Collab Edition on ABS-CBN and GMA about a common misunderstanding people have about her. The actress shared that some individuals tend to judge her based on her fashion choices, often assuming she lacks self-respect because of the way she dresses.
Recently, Xyriel also posted a video showing herself getting a new tattoo. The footage captures the tattoo artist carefully assessing the area before starting the ink work, while Xyriel reviews the sample design. Later in the clip, she is seen lying on her side as the artist begins the tattooing process.
