The actor shared the advice while discussing their upcoming solo movie project, Ba’t Di Na Lang Tayo, during the film’s media event. The movie pairs Dustin and Bianca under director Jason Paul Laxamana in his comeback project with Regal Entertainment.
Dustin admitted that he was extremely excited when he learned that he had landed the male lead role, particularly because he has long admired Laxamana’s work.
“Gaano ako ka-excited? Sobra. Nung nalaman ko pa lang, nung pini-pitch pa lang siya sa amin, as in hindi na ako makatulog kakaisip. Kasi growing up, pinapanuod ko na yung mga gawa ni Direk. Yung 100 Tula (Para Kay Stella), favorite ko yun,” he told the press.

He said working with Laxamana had been one of the things he had been looking forward to, especially since the project would give him and Bianca an opportunity to explore a different side of their acting careers.
“It’s our first time working with director JP and he’s one of our dream directors. Talagang we love watching his films. We’re so excited na maibahagi itong pelikula namin sa inyong lahat. So nung pinitch ito sa amin, sobrang excited ako na tinanong ko agad kung kailan yung script reading. Tapos I remember minessage ko si Direk JP, tinawagan ko pa siya. Kasi sobrang nilu-look forward ko talaga yung mag-explore sa industriyang ito, kasama si Bianca lalo na.”
According to Dustin, Ba’t Di Na Lang Tayo will also be different from their previous project, Love You So Bad. While he kept the story details under wraps, he described the movie as something new for both of them, with themes that could resonate with their own experiences and those of many viewers.
“Itong pelikulang ito, masasabi ko lang, bago siya sa amin. Nung narinig ko yung storya, bago siya and, at the same time, may pagka-totoo sa buhay namin at sa buhay ng karamihan, so sobrang excited ako na magawa namin itong pelikula. Sobrang suwerte namin na gagawa kami ng pelikula na solo naman namin this time.”
Dustin also emphasized the importance of staying humble as their careers progress. Having worked on several films, he said he has always tried to remind Bianca not to let success alter her character.
“I remember sinasabi ko sa kanya palagi nun na basta huwag lang lalaki ulo niya paglabas namin ng PBB. Lagi ko rini-remind sa kanya, basta kahit anong mangyari, hindi man tayo magpatuloy sa career natin, huwag lang lalaki ang ulo mo, huwag kang magbabago,” he shared.
For Dustin, Bianca has remained true to herself despite receiving more opportunities after PBB.
“Yung values naman ni Bianca from PBB hanggang ngayon is the same. Hindi nagbago, same lang. Kumbaga dumagdag lang yung blessings niya ngayon, yung mga work. But yung foundation niya, yung values niya, is the same. Wala naman nagbago,” he explained.
Dustin also credited their openness and friendship for helping strengthen their onscreen partnership. He said their shared experiences from PBB have helped them become more receptive to feedback and adjustments.
“Siguro yung pagiging grounded kasi it comes from being open. Yung relationship namin, yung friendship namin, talagang open kami for adjustments. Madami kasi kaming dapat pang matutunan sa buhay eh. So sa work din, hindi kami sarado. Kumbaga, nakikinig kami sa isa’t isa. Nung PBB kasi ang dami na naming pinagdaanan eh. So feeling ko naman, medyo na-master na namin kumbaga yung connection namin, para pag may mga times na feeling namin ay may mga mali kami, parang yun yung mga times na kailangan open kami para maging grounded,” he added.
