Elijah Canlas is one Gen Z star creating a steady career in acting. With a new trending series under his belt, "Senior High," he continues to catch the public’s curiosity. And if you’re one of those eager to get to know this cute, talented, and smart guy more, you’ve come to the right place.

In this edition of High Profile, Elijah reveals facts about himself.

On August 16, 2000, a star named Elijah Luiz Madiclum Canlas was born, making him a Leo. There’s something about the Leo sign (known for being competitive, driven, and focused) that he’s embarrassed by, so he tends to always mention his rising sign, the Scorpio; and moon sign, the Pisces “para balance.”

We begin the favorites section with his go-to color, which is green at the moment because it’s his brother’s fave too. He likes sweet, spicy, and sour dishes – combine these and you get “sinigang na maanghang” plus chocolates as dessert. If you wish to give him ice cream, make sure it’s coffee crumble flavored.

When he’s not acting, Elijah is busy with sports. He grew up playing basketball and badminton and is currently into football. He also watches series and movies and writes music for pastime. Yes, one way to Elijah’s heart is through music. He has a vinyl records collection, as well as shoes.

This guy must be a super sweet ‘kuya’, as meeting his baby brother for the first time is his favorite childhood memory. He has traveled to a lot of places, but the best of them all was Amsterdam because of its chill atmosphere and rich arts and culture.

The qualities he looks for in a friend? “Empathetic, selfless, and not egoistic.” As a student, he is “behave dati perongayon hindi na masyado.” But for sure, he’s the friendly type. “Hindi kayo matatakot sa akin kasi ako ‘yung lumalapit lagi sa inyo.”

Catch Elijah in “Senior High,” which also stars Andrea Brillantes, Kyle Echarri, Zaijian Jaranilla, Xyriel Manabat, JK Labajo, and Daniela Stranner. It airs weeknights on Kapamilya Channel, Kapamilya Online Live, TV5, and A2Z.
