Jake Cuenca Cares for Marian Rivera

There is no denying the fact that actor Jake Cuenca is smitten with the charm and beauty of new screen partner Marian Rivera.

Jake and Marian are paired for the first time in Regal Entertainment’s Metro Manila Film Festival entry, “Super Inday.”

The production staff and crew can attest to how extra sweet Jake is to Dingdong Dantes’ real-life girlfriend.

“Tuwing may shooting sina Marian at Jake, lagi itong may
dalang pagkain para sa aktres. Kung wala lang Dingdong si Marian,
papasok sa utak ng mga nakakakita na nagkakamabutihan na ng loob ang dalawa.

“Minsan nga, sumama ang katawan ni Marian sa shooting at tipong lalagnatin. Aba, to the rescue naman agad si Jake at binilhan ng gamot si Marian.

”Ganoon katindi ang pag-aalaga ni Jake sa kanyang leading lady. No wonder, medaling magustuhan ng mga babae si Jake. Ang sarap siguro talaga niyang magmahal!” relates a “Super Inday” staff.

In the 2010 remake of the classic Maricel Soriano starrer, Jake plays the role of Amazing who, like Super Inday (Marian), has supernatural powers.

Together, Amazing and Super Inday battle evildoers and fall in love in the process. The two are yet to shoot their “sizzling” kissing scene, though.

Providing the film’s comic touch are comedians Pokwang and John Lapus (as the Golden Bibe).

“Super Inday” is one of Regal matriarch Lily Monteverde’s favorite Regal productions. She and daughter Roselle Monteverde-Teo gave the movie a more contemporary feel coupled with state-of-the-art special effects for kiddie viewers and the entire family to enjoy this Christmas season.

“Super Inday” will hit the screens starting December 25 as part of the 2010 Metro Manila Film Festival.

Shake, Rattle and Roll 12 Trailer Released

Regal Films has released the full trailer of their MMFF entry Shake, Rattle and Roll 12.

Just like with the previous installments, this film has three scary stories: Mamanyika, Isla Engkanto and Punerarya.

“Mamanyika” marks the big screen directorial debut of Zoren Legaspi. The story is about an orphaned girl who gets a doll that turns out to be evil and kills people. Shaina Magdayao and Ricky Davao lead the cast.

Director Topel Lee, fresh from the box-office office success of another Regal suspense-thriller, “White House,” combines fantasy and horror in the “Isla Engkanto” episode. Starring are Andi Eigenmann and Rayver Cruz, two of the finest performers of their generation. John Lapus and Regine Angeles co-star.

“Punerarya” is about a family who owns a funeral parlor, but actually satisfies their hunger by making meals out of the dead bodies. Sid Lucero, Carla Abellana, Mart Escudero lead the cast, with child actor Nash Aguas, who bagged the best child performer award in Topel’s “Yaya” episode in “SRR X.” Director is Jerrold Tarog.

‘Petrang Kabayo’ Tops RP Box-Office with P53.24M in First 5 Days

The launching movie of comedian Vice Ganda is a certified box-office hit!

In just 5 days, Petrang Kabayo raked in a total gross of P53.24 million according to Box Office Mojo. But according to Viva Films, the comedy movie already earned P107 million on its first 6 days, so it doubled in just one day?

Whoever got the correct figure (another case of double padding perhaps from Viva?), its undeniable that Petrang Kabayo is one of the biggest hit of the year. I myself have seen the long lines of folks at SM MOA for the said movie. It could even surpass the P142.25 million record of Miss You Like Crazy as the top grossing pinoy movie of 2010.

What do you think? Kaya ba?

Here’s the Philippine box office tally for the opening weekend of October 13 to 17, 2010 according to Box Office Mojo:
