On October 27, actor Adrian Alandy admitted that it was challenging for him to take on sexy roles.
At the media conference for the Vivamax film Kara Krus, Alandy cited the challenge of keeping himself in shape to do sexy roles.
“Ang hirap masabi kapag ganitong mga role eh. Actually, this project just landed on my lap, last minute lang. So originally, I wasn’t the actor supposed to be playing doon sa role. Pero, thankful ako na when it was offered to me, inimprove ng Viva, and nagampanan ko naman siguro ng–kung ano ‘yung gusto ni Direk doon sa character, kasi very little time talaga to prepare for the role.
“Thankful din ako in a way na okay din ‘yung pangangatawan ko dahil noon sa pandemic, nakakapagwork-out din naman ako, for my age.”
He then noted that he found it ‘difficult’ to feel comfortable doing sexy roles, especially at his age.
“Mahirap maging komportable sa ganon, I cannot say that you know all the time nasa condition ‘yung katawan ko. Lalo na for my age, forty-two na rin eh, hindi na rin ka ano ‘yung metabolism ko.
“Pero, mahirap maging komportable sa mga ganyan, lalo na ngayon may asawa, siyempre pinapaalam ko sa kaniya lahat ng ginagawa ko at tatanggapin ko.”
He also confirmed how he discussed his projects with his wife, especially those that included intimate scenes.
“Although hindi naman siya nagsasabi na ia-approve niya, pero kinukuha ko ‘yung thoughts niya about a certain project, at kung maganda ‘yung istorya, wala naman siyang–kasi napanood naman niya ‘yung anino sa likod ng buwan eh, wala naman siyang nasabi na ano.”
Alandy stars in the upcoming Vivamax movie Kara Krus alongside Denise Esteban and Felix Roco.
The Vivamax film includes other Vivamax artists such as Joko Diaz, Ali Asistio, Andrew Muhlach, Garry Lim, Phoemela Baranda, Ali Khatibi, Billy Villeta, Raquel Monteza, Aurora Sevilla, Alona Navarro, Mickey Ferriols, Manu Respall, and Lhian Gimeno.
