<p>MANILA – John Lloyd Cruz and Bea Alonzo are one of today’s most bankable pairings on screen but unknown to many people, their relationship as co-actors did not start off well.</p><p>In an interview with <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xEfqFwkNWLc">PEP</a>, Alonzo recalled how she and Cruz used to work in several projects back in the early 2000s without talking to each other except when filming a scene.</p><p>&quot;Hindi kami magkaaway, hindi lang kami friends. Nung time na nag-uumpisa ako, hindi niya talaga gusto na ako &#x27;yung nandun, alam ko. Hindi ko naman siya masisi. Mahirap pa ako makatrabaho kasi ang bata ko nun,” she said.</p><p>&quot;Biruin mo, never ako nakalimot ng lines. Pero biruin mo, lagi ako natatakpan ng camera niya, &#x27;yung ilaw niya. Kasi hindi ko alam kung paano, e. Umaarte na ako, wala na pala ako sa camera. &#x27;Tapos umiiyak na siya, natakpan ko pala &#x27;yung camera niya. So I had to do it again,&quot; she added.</p><p>Alonzo said it came to a point when Launrenti Dyogi, their director for “Kay Tagal Kang Hinintay” and “Now That I Have You,” had to talk to them so they could thresh out their differences.</p><p>&quot;Nung time na &#x27;yun, usung-uso nun &#x27;yung SCQ (Star Circle Quest) &#x27;yung mga talent shows. And then, meron ng Sandara (Park) and Hero (Angeles). Tapos nung time na &#x27;yun, kinausap kami ni Direk Lauren. &#x27;You have to step up. Hello? Kinikilig mga tao sa mga taga-&#x27;SCQ.&#x27; Anong i-offer niyo? Hindi kayo nag-uusap?’” Alonzo recalled.</p><p>Apparently, Cruz wasn’t too keen about Alonzo at that time because he found her hard to work with. Alonzo, on the other hand, felt Cruz was arrogant.</p><p>&quot;Parang feeling ko, ang yabang niya. Feeling ko, porke baguhang artista lang ako, hindi niya ako gustong kaibigan. &#x27;Yung isa naman, naiinis siya sa akin kasi feeling niya ang hirap ko katrabaho,” she said.</p><p>While their friendship did not have the best start, Alonzo said she is thankful that Cruz thought of her that way in the beginning.</p><p>“He helped me so much nung time na sinusungitan niya ako, hindi kami nag-uusap, hindi kami nagha-hi, hindi kami nagba-bye. I had to prove myself that I am worthy. So actually, he pushed me, without him even knowing about it,” she said.</p><p>&quot;Talagang ginawa kong fuel &#x27;yung pagiging ganun niya sa akin. Na parang, &#x27;Ah ganun ba? Papatunayan ko sa iyo. Gagaling talaga ako.&#x27; Kung hindi naging ganun relationship namin, baka mas naging relaxed ako. Baka hindi naging ganun kalakas &#x27;yung drive ko to prove myself,&quot; she said.</p><p>Cruz and Alonzo are set to reunite this year for a much-anticipated film project to be produced by Star Cinema.</p><div><strong>Related video:</strong></div><figure class="op-interactive"><iframe height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/WNuIvSaqPdQ?enablejsapi=1" width="560"></iframe></figure><div class="iwantbar">Watch more in <a href="//www.iwantv.com.ph/">iWantv</a> or <a href="//tfc.tv/">TFC.tv</a></div>
