<p>MANILA — Director Boy 2 Quizon described the upcoming film “Home Along Da Riles: Da Reunion” as an “accidental plan,” as the beloved sitcom returns to the big screen nearly three decades after its original run led by his late grandfather Dolphy.</p><p>The comedy-drama, set to hit cinemas on June 17, in time for Father’s Day Weekend, is a continuation of the iconic Kapamilya sitcom.</p><div><iframe class="instagram-media instagram-media-rendered" id="instagram-embed-8" src="https://www.instagram.com/p/DYZTHXuTeNv/embed/captioned/?cr=1&amp;v=14&amp;wp=594&amp;rd=https%3A%2F%2Fod2-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com&amp;rp=%2F#%7B%22ci%22%3A8%2C%22os%22%3A24303616.799999952%7D" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="1131" data-instgrm-payload-id="instagram-media-payload-8" scrolling="no" style="background:white;max-width:540px;width:calc(100% - 2px);border-radius:3px;border:1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219);box-shadow:none;display:block;margin:0px 0px 12px;min-width:326px;padding:0px"></iframe></div><script async="" src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script><p>“Nakaka-excite kasi  hindi ‘yun intention namin. By accident siya, hindi sinasadya. Nag-umpisa ito ng nag-reunion buong cast. Tapos sabi, what if gawin natin? And ayun,” he said in an interview held in Taguig City, during the launch of Haydee Garcia’s latest collection &quot;Petals and Poetry.”</p><p>“Gusto lang namin pakita ano nangyari sa mga anak ni Tatay Kevin,” he added.</p><p>Quizon explained it took them about two years to complete the cast for the reunion film.</p><p>“It took some time. It did not happen in a snap — kinumpleto namin lahat. It took awhile, two years. Iba kasi &#x27;di na ganoon ka-active. May iba based sa Canada. Iba magkaiba ng network. Sinama-sama namin lahat — ultimo Sunog Baga. It took a while maghanap. Pero masaya kami kasama namin lahat,” he said.</p><div><iframe class="instagram-media instagram-media-rendered" id="instagram-embed-10" src="https://www.instagram.com/p/DYrVNKAk9PS/embed/captioned/?cr=1&amp;v=14&amp;wp=594&amp;rd=https%3A%2F%2Fod2-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com&amp;rp=%2F#%7B%22ci%22%3A10%2C%22os%22%3A24325390.599999905%7D" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="1125" data-instgrm-payload-id="instagram-media-payload-10" scrolling="no" style="background:white;max-width:540px;width:calc(100% - 2px);border-radius:3px;border:1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219);box-shadow:none;display:block;margin:0px 0px 12px;min-width:326px;padding:0px"></iframe></div><script async="" src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script><p>Quizon added that the script also took time to complete, as they consulted the creatives behind the popular 1990s sitcom to ensure the film does not stray from the original.</p><p>He also thanked ABS-CBN, who owned the rights for “Home Along Da Riles,” for allowing them to make the film.</p><p>“Kinailangan namin i-consult mga tao na involved noon — including OG writers. Hindi basta basta. We are definitely grateful for Tita Cory (Vidanes) and ABS-CBN for allowing us,” he said.  “Natutuwa kami tinutulungan kami ng ABS-CBN.”</p><p>Quizon stressed that it was worth the wait as more than just a nostalgic revival, the filmmakers are looking forward to bring to the big screen the sitcom’s timeless values that older generations grew up with while introducing them to younger audiences.</p><p>“It is a nice way of going back to that time. Feeling namin millennials and Gen X — it is the best time to revisit,” he reasoned. “Makaka-relate ka kasi alam mo may mahal ka sa buhay nakasama mo noong time na &#x27;yun. Matagal na rin na nawala ibang core values as a family.”</p><p>Quizon, however, highlighted the cast and production’s main drive to pursue the film was to pay tribute to King of Comedy Dolphy.   </p><p>“Pinaka nag-drive ituloy movie is to pay tribute. It is a Father’s Day movie,” he said. “Hindi namin ginawa to para surpass &#x27;yung dati. Walang makakatalo doon.”</p>
