ONE OF THE THINGS However, he was quick to dismiss the romantic speculations about their pairing.
In the Coco Martin-led show, the veteran action star, 69, plays Primo/Supremo, with Tolentino playing Amanda, with fans dubbing their teamup as PriManda.
Responding to a question from The STAR during a recent gathering with the entertainment press, Lapid said, "Siguro ako na ang pinakamatanda na may ka-loveteam. Buti tinatanggap pa ako na lolo na ako, senior citizen na, tinatanggap pa rin na may ka-love team ako. Isang karangalan. Parang ang tingin ko sa PriManda, teenager pa kami. Ang lakas sa online, laging napag-uusapan. Nagpapasalamat rin ako sa pamilya ko na naiintindihan naman nila yung trabaho ko.
("Maybe I'm the oldest actor with a love team. It's a good thing I'm still accepted even though I'm already a grandfather, a senior citizen. I'm still being accepted as part of a love team - it's an honor. I see Primanda as if we're still teenagers. It's strong online, always being talked about. I'm also thankful to my family for understanding the nature of my work.") Asked why the tandem worked, he said, "Sa istorya kasi may drama, may action. Ang galing talaga ni Coco mag-twist ng storya. Ako talagang inisip ko 'di kami mag-ki-click eh kasi may edad na tapos sabi ko sa sarili, cute pa ba ako, hindi na eh.
