Kasamahan sa teatro at isa sa mga iniidolo ni Elijah Canlas si Dolly de Leon kaya masayang-masaya ang aktor sa magagandang nangyayari sa Hollywood career ng award-winning actress.Ilang proyekto rin ang pinagsamahan nilang dalawa noon sa teatro at aniya, mas na-inspired siya sa achievement ng veteran star.Kuwento ni Elijah: “I watched the Oscars live. Happy ako na pinakita siya [Dolly) onscreen nang ilang beses. Nakaka-proud, sobra. The fact that we just did a film together na mag-ina kami,” pahayag ni Elijah sa mediacon ng Summer MMFF entry na About Us But Not About Us with Romnick Sarmenta.Pag-alala pa ni Eljah, una silang nagkatrabaho ni Dolly sa seryeng Unconditional (2020) kung saan nakasama niya rin sina Sharlene San Pedro, Meryll Soriano, at Justin Cuyugan.“Sa Unconditional we had one scene. She played my guidance counselor in that show,” sey pa ng aktor.Sa naturang show din ay inamin ni Dolly noon na naging “sabaw” siya sa eksena nila ni Elijah. Na ang ibig sabihin ay “lutang” siya sa eksena at parang wala sa sarili.“Kasi ang haba ng lines niya as a guidance councilor, di ba? So, puro medical terms, ganyan, ganyan. So, naintindihan ko yung kasabawan niya noon,” nakangiting paliwanag ni Elijah.Pagkatapos nilang magsama noon sa Unconditional ay muli silang nagkatrabahoo sa Philippine adaptation ng Korean movie na Keys to the Heart kung saan gumanap silang mag-ina.“Pero nakakatuwa when we started working on Keys to the Heart, Gelo na ‘yung tawag niya sa akin. Sabi ko, ‘Paano niya nalaman na Gelo?’ Tapos sabi niya, ‘I’ve been watching you since you were 12 sa theater.’ Sabi ko, ‘Oh, wow!’” kuwento ni Elijah na ang nickname ay Gelo.Generous din daw ka-eksena ang premyadong aktres kaya naman naging maganda ang collaboration nila sa pelikula.“And she was super collaborative din. Tatanungin niya ako since ako yung nag-immersion. Tatanungin niya ako, ‘Anong kailangan mo sa akin? Anong gusto mong gawin ko for you?’ And she was the best, sobra,” pagmamalaki pa niya.Nanay na rin daw ang turing niya kay Dolly at happy siya sa tinatamasa nitong tagumpay sa Hollywood dahil sa Triangle of Sadness.“Nanay na ang tawag ko sa kanya ngayon. I text her from time to time. Sobrang proud ako sa kanya. She’s living the dream. Super proud of her, grabe, of what she’s doing right now,” lahad ng aktor.May balak din ba si Elijah na sundan ng yapak ni Dolly sa Hollywood?“Opo! Ima-manifest ko po ’yan,” mabilis niyang tugon. “I want to direct one day also. But to be a part of Hollywood production like Triangle of Sadness or anything of that caliber would be a blessing, a great blessing, and a dream come true, honestly.”And if ever daw na mabgyan siya ng pagkakataon ay hindi niya raw ito sasayangin.“I promise I won’t let you all down,” deklara niya.Ibinalita rin ni Elijah na nagpapadala na siya ng audition tapes sa mga production companies sa Hollywood.“I think it’s been easier, especially in this age dahil self-tape auditions na even in Hollywood, even in different countries. So I passed like mga tatlo, apat, ganyan. I met a couple of weeks ago international agents. Pumunta sila dito sa Cornerstone,” aniya.“Yeah, I’m just taking steps. Nagpapasa po ako. Hindi po pumapasa minsan but that’s the actor’s life. Parang right now, dahil kay Nanay Dolly, the dream is more alive more than ever,” huling pahayag ng About Us But Not About Us lead actor.Mapapanood ang pelikula simula April 8 bilang bahagi ng Summer MMFF. The film is written and directed by Jun Lana and produced by Idea First Company.<div><style rel="stylesheet">.scroll-wrapper {-webkit-overflow-scrolling: touch;}.scroll-wrapper iframe {border: none;}</style></div><div class="scroll-wrapper"><iframe id="MegaControllerIframe-1677806795789" style="width:100%;min-height:480px" src="https://controller.megaphonetv.com/?m=tqu4z&amp;iswebpoll=true&amp;poll_id=active"></iframe></div><script type="text/javascript">!function(){class e{constructor(t,s=null){this.type=null,this.fieldName=t,this.fieldValue=s,this.originMessageID=`${(new Date).getTime()}_${Math.random()}`,this.systemID=e.SYSTEM_ID}toPlainObject(){return JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(this))}}e.GET="GET",e.SET="SET",e.RESPONSE="RESPONSE",e.LOCAL_STORAGE_CHECK="LOCAL_STORAGE_CHECK",e.SYSTEM_ID="MP_FIRST_PARTY_DATA_BRIDGE";class t extends e{constructor(t,s,a=null){super(t,s),this.status=a,this.type=e.RESPONSE}}function s(){try{if("undefined"==typeof localStorage)return!1;try{return localStorage.setItem("testkey","testvalue"),localStorage.removeItem("testkey"),!0}catch(e){return!1}}catch(e){return!1}}if(window&&window.addEventListener){const a=document.getElementById("MegaControllerIframe-1677806795789");new class{constructor(){this.targetOrigin="*",this.bubblingMessages=new Map,this.beginListeningForMessages()}beginListeningForMessages(){window.addEventListener("message",this.messageListener.bind(this),!1)}messageListener(a){if(a.data.systemID!==e.SYSTEM_ID)return;let i=a.data.type,n=a.data.fieldName,r=a.data.fieldValue,g=new t;if(g.originMessageID=a.data.originMessageID,i===e.GET)g.fieldName=n,s()?this.handleGet(n,a.source,g):this.checkForBubble(a.data,a.source,g);else if(i===e.SET)s()?this.handleSet(n,r):this.checkForBubble(a.data,a.source,g);else if(i===e.LOCAL_STORAGE_CHECK)s()?this.handleLocalStorageCheck(a.source,g):this.checkForBubble(a.data,a.source,g);else if(i===e.RESPONSE){const e=this.bubblingMessages.get(a.data.originMessageID);null!=e&&(this.bubblingMessages.delete(a.data.originMessageID),e.source.postMessage(a.data,this.targetOrigin))}}handleGet(e,t,s){s.fieldValue=localStorage.getItem(e),s.status=200,t.postMessage(s.toPlainObject(),this.targetOrigin)}handleSet(e,t){localStorage.setItem(e,t)}handleLocalStorageCheck(e,t){t.status=200,e.postMessage(t.toPlainObject(),this.targetOrigin)}checkForBubble(e,t,s){!function(){try{return window.self!==window.top}catch(e){return!0}}()?(s.status=403,s.fieldValue=null,t.postMessage(s.toPlainObject(),this.targetOrigin)):this.bubbleMessage(e,t)}bubbleMessage(t,s){this.bubblingMessages.set(t.originMessageID,{message:t,source:s}),t.type!==e.GET&&t.type!==e.LOCAL_STORAGE_CHECK||setTimeout(this.handleBubbledMessageTimeout.bind(this),4e3,t,s),window.parent.postMessage(t,this.targetOrigin)}handleBubbledMessageTimeout(t,s){this.bubblingMessages.has(t.originMessageID)&&(this.bubblingMessages.delete(t.originMessageID),t.status=404,t.type=e.RESPONSE,s.postMessage(t,this.targetOrigin))}};window.addEventListener("message",function(e){e.data.hasOwnProperty("height")&&(a.style.height=(parseInt(e.data.height)+1).toString()+"px")},!1)}}();</script>
