PAGILAS, Philippines - In a meeting with executive producer Julius Roden for the filming of 'The Pattern', the very handsome Karlo Manalo gives his undying gratitude to the young movie mogul of Pagilas Studios.
In an interview with the 23-year-old actor, he confirmed that he's filming a movie by the award-winning director Gil Portes. He was delighted when he found out that he got the part because Portes know him from 'All About Adam'.
Migui Moreno and Karlo Manalo starring in All About Adam is great in every aspect. Writer, producer and director Julius Roden kept everything fast-paced. The characters are well-introduced and given perfect moments. The opening scene is groundbreaking on Philippine television.
How's it working with Director Gil Portes?
'It was great and very exciting. He kept asking me how it was like working with Julius Roden in All About Adam. He was very interested in the story and my character. I'm really grateful that Director Julius Roden gave me the opportunity to show my acting prowess in the All About Adam and it attracted Director Gil Portes. He's also interested in Migui Moreno's character and performance in the series.' he revealed.
Gil Portes films are also part of Cinemalaya.
Despite of all the changes in his life in the entertainment industry, people will never forget that he was once involved in a controversy with Vice Ganda. Early 2010, Karlo performed in Showtime on ABS CBN. The host Vice Ganda went gaga after seeing all his sexy moves. It all started with a joke then, Vice Ganda took advantage of Manalo on national television. And it was all over the internet and tabloids that Vice Ganda proposed to Karlo Manalo to have sex with him for fame and fortune. However, the star of All About Adam declined it.
How does it feel that you're still tagged as 'Ang Lalakeng Nagpa Tumbling Kay Vice Ganda?
'You know, as far as I'm concern, I don't really want to talk about it. I mean, it's 2011, come on people!' he got a little bit annoyed.
Did you know that the said episode is uploaded on the internet and it has reached millions of views?
'Really? Now that's funny. We can't stop people from watching what they want to watch on the internet. It doesn't really bug me anymore. I just focus on my career and do my best whenever I'm with people at work. I try to focus on other things. Productive things.' Karlo added.
Does Vice Ganda keep in touch with him?
'No. He doesn't. And I think it's about time people stopped talking about that issue. It's time to talk about productive things like great movies we have in Cinemalaya and other movies I'm working on.' he smiled.
