On February 12, Viva artist Vince Rillon admitted that having feelings for his co-actors is necessary for their scenes.
During the media conference for L (Larawan, Liko, Lipat), Rillon noted that kilig is valuable for his chemistry with his co-stars.
“Siguro po makakaramdam po talaga ako ng love, kasi kailangan po pumasok ‘yun sa character, kailangan po maramdaman ‘yun bilang Lucas so pag hindi ako makaramdam ng kilig o something na maaring madevelop, siguro hindi ako masa-satisfy sa character. Hindi ko po binibigyan ng limitasyon ‘yung sarilli ko pagdating sa acting.”
However, he clarified he knows his boundaries as an actor.
“Dahil alam ko ‘yun ‘yung trabaho ko bilang Lucas. Alam ko naman po ‘yung hangganan ko bilang Vince Rillon at bilang Lucas. Maaring pwedeng madevelop pero sa ngayon hindi ko po iniisip ‘yun dahil gusto ko po muna magtrabaho. Dahil ineenjoy ko po muna itong industriya na ito, ‘yung binigay sa akin ng Viva.”
He then shared his preparations for the role as a young freelance artist.
“Hindi naman po ako graphic artist, sa akin po ang way ko, bumili po ako ng paleta, bumili ako ng board kasi kailangan ko humawak ng totoong brush kung paano ang hagod. And then pagdating sa aktingan, lahat, nagpaalalay ako kila Direk Roman, Direk Topel Lee, Direk EJ, and lalo na po kay Direk John. So nagtiwala po ako sa kanila. ‘Yun po.”
Rillon portrays the role of Lucas, who tries to overcome his loneliness after his girlfriend Lana leaves him.
He shared his opinion of men using sexual trysts to get over their heartbreak, noting that it seems unfair for women.
“‘Yung iba pong lalaki malamang–kawawa. ‘Yun ‘yung masasabi ko na kapag nangyayari sa totoong buhay na naghahanap sila ng rebound. Parang doon po nila ine-express ‘yung galit nila. Pero ang sa akin naman po, malayo po sa sarili ko ‘yan.
“Kasi kawawa naman ‘yung babae. Kasi biruin mo ‘yun, maloloko ka sa isang girlfriend and then may lumandi sayo or may opportunity ka na landiin ‘yung babae, pag-ginawa ko ba ‘yun or nailabas ko na ‘yung gusto kong mangyari, nakabawas ba ‘yun sa problema ko siguro hindi. Hindi ko gagawin ‘yun.”
He noted that he’d rather not have a rebound relationship with any girl, especially he wouldn’t want his sisters to go through the same experience.
“Hindi ako naghahanap ng rebound or parang landiin ‘to or ito, lalandiin, maglalandi ng maglalandi, hindi po. Ako nirerespeto ko ‘yung ganon, ‘yung ganong tao, kasi marami po akong kapatid na babae, so ayaw ko po sa kanila mangyari ‘yun. ‘Yung ginagawa-‘yung ayaw kong mangyari sa kapatid ko, ayaw kong mangyari sa iba.”
