Ngayon naman, let&#x27;s be light, let&#x27;s have fun,&quot; Alviar told ABS-CBN News&#x27; MJ Felipe. </p><p>&quot;It&#x27;s age-appropriate and excited na ako kasi alam ko na magiging masaya kami habang ginagawa ito and I&#x27;m sure people will also have fun watching it.&quot; </p><p>Alviar also said that fans can expect something new from Bernardo and Padilla in the film, which currently does not have a final title yet. </p><p>&quot;How do we make it different? What haven&#x27;t they done? What haven&#x27;t I done? At kung ano na iyong babagay sa kanila given their maturity now,&quot; she said in explaining the inspiration for the project. &quot;There has to be something different the audience can watch out for.&quot; </p><p>Padilla and Berando said they&#x27;re excited to learn something new from Alviar. </p><p>&quot;Pahihirapan pa rin kami ni direk,&quot; Padilla quipped.&quot;Pero iyon iyung maganda doon, doon naman iyong mahahasa ka. Hindi naman puwede laging madali lang lahat para sa iyo, hindi ka niyan matututo.&quot; </p><p>Alviar&#x27;s &quot;Crazy Beautiful You&quot; made more than P320 million in the local box office, making it the most successful film of Padilla and Bernardo to date. </p>
