Gerald Anderson and Kim Chiu Reunited in Movie Crazy Love

Gerald Anderson revealed to ABS-CBN news that his role will be quite daring as he is set to play something he had never played before, a macho dancer and call boy.

"[Ang role ko] plain and simple - isa po akong macho dancer ni Ate Pokwang. Siya po ang suki ko," said Gerald during his first shooting day for the Star Magic movie last May 23.

Pokwang will play Kim Chiu's mother in the movie so Gerald will be coming in between the relationship of a mother to her daughter.

"Mag-nanay kami ni Nanay Pokwang, kino-control ko siya, kasi minsan mas matanda pa ako sa kanya. Maganda 'yung banter namin, funny and serious sometimes," Kim told ABS-CBN news.

How did Gerald prepare for the role? Well, in an interview with PEP, Gerald said that he did immerse himself in a gay bar so he can have a background of what to do. Of course, the hunk actor was in disguise all throughout, wearing a cap in the middle of the dark bar.

“Nag-immerse rin ako para dito. Pumasok ako sa isang gay bar, naka-sumbrero ako para hindi alam ng mga tao. Medyo madilim nung time na yun at pinanood ko yung mga sumasayaw sa stage. Para at least kahit papaano, may background ako.

The said movie, Crazy Love will be Kim and Gerald's reunion project after Till My Heartaches End in 2010. Gerald said that he is very excited to be paired again with Kim, knowing that both of them had already grown up as an actor.

"Syempre maninibago ka kasi last project namin more than a year [ago] pa. Pero more than ilangan, syempre mas excited, kasi 'yung mga natutunan namin last year, maipapakita namin dito," related Gerald.

When asked if there will be a kissing scene between him and Kim, Gerald quickly replied, "Secret" but added that he is very ready to do it again on-screen with his ex-girlfriend.

Kim and Gerald will be joined by an all-star cast in this 20th anniversary film offering of Star Magic,  including John Lloyd Cruz, Bea Alonzo, Maja Salvador, Diether Ocampo, Piolo Pascual, Jake Cuenca, John Lapus and Angelica Panganiban.

Aside from the movie Crazy Love, Gerald will be starring on his very first indie film entitled El Brujo with Jake Cuenca. The said indie film is an action-drama movie helmed by critically-acclaimed director Tikoy Aguiluz. El Brujo, which was shot on different locations such as Subic, Olongao, Antipolo and even Mt. Pinatubo required Gerald his fighting skills using a knife, gun and even hist fist.
