Kapamilya star Anthony Jennings revealed that he wanted to do more roles to boost his acting career at the media conference for Love Bites with the press, including LionhearTV, on September 14, 2022.
Jennings said he wanted to become an action star.
“Ang dami ko pang gustong gampanang roles like ngayon nga parang naiisip ko nga na gusto kong mag-action star. Isa rin ‘yun sa mga pangarap ko din gawin in the future. Hopefully, ma-experience ko rin siya. Gusto ko rin matuto.”
He then noted that he still had a lot about his acting career.
“Ang dami ko pang hindi alam gawin, ang dami ko pang character kailangan ko talagang aralin. So I think kailangan ko rin mag-workshops and mag-aral ng ibang tao, ng mga nakakasabay ko sa buhay ko. Feeling ko isa rin ‘yun sa magpapaangat sa craft ko, sa acting.”
As for his chemistry with his co-star Vivoree Esclito, he cited how their friendship helped remove feelings of awkwardness between them.
“Doon mamamatay ‘yung ano eh–papatayin niya ‘yung awkwardness. Mas magiging like–pag kilala mo na ‘yung tao, alam mo na ‘yung kung ano ang joke na ibabanat mo sa kaniya sa eksena. Alam mo na kung paano siya papatawanin. Kung ano ‘yung mas patok na humor sa kanya. So I think mas maganda kung kilala ninyo na ‘yung isa’t isa. And si V (Vivoree), alam ko na kung paano siya pasayahin eh.”
He then voiced his thoughts on how meeting people could help a person know themselves better.
“Ako kasi, parang hindi pa ako naha-heart broken, wow pogi no? Wala pa naman akong na-experience na ano– pero minsan may times na parang pag may makikilala ka na someone, mas magiging comfortable, ka rin, mas makikilala mo ‘yung sarili mo.”
Jennings stars in the first episode of the ABS-CBN and RCD Narratives creation, Love Bites, alongside fellow Kapamilya star Vivoree Esclito.
The made-for-YouTube series streams on the Kapamilya YouTube channel starting September 16 and lasts up to November 2022.
