TULOY na tuloy na ang kauna-unahang primetime teleserye ng Phenomenal Kapamilya Loveteam na sina Donny Pangilinan at Belle Mariano, ang “Can’t Buy Me Love.”
Ang bonggang proyektong ito ng tambalang DonBelle ay ididirek ni Mae Alviar Cruz mula sa Star Creatives.
“You know ever since, this has always been a dream of mine. Growing up I used to watch primetime seryes nga and to be able to do one, oh my gosh with Direk Mae and him (Donny), grabe! I am so excited! I cannot wait,” sey ni Belle sa naganap na project announcement.
Para naman kay Donny, “I think it’s something we both have really prayed about, dreamed about and we can’t imagine na ito na ‘yon, we are really starting of course alongside an amazing director and person Direk Mae.
“And the whole cast, the whole crew, they started to tell us about like who is part of it already. It’s our first time working with Star Creatives as well, we are very excited. We just can’t wait. This is really a dream come true,” sey ng binata.
Tungkol naman sa magiging characters nila sa upcoming ABS-CBN series, kuwento ni Belle, “My character is a Chinese. She was born in a very rich and traditional family. So ‘yun lang po ang pwede kong sabihin. And my character name is Caroline. So that’s all I can say for now.”
Chika naman ni Donny, “Si Bingo ang pangalan ng ipo-portray ko. He is from a very poor family and he is very hardworking and his dream is just to provide for his family, be there for them.”
Ito ang kauna-unahang pagkakataon na maididirek niya ang DonBelle, “One of my routines when I am doing a project is to meet with the actors because I want to get to know them before we start the project.
“So, siyempre ako I’ve heard a lot about them. I mean I know Belle from ‘Four Sisters (Before the Wedding)’ and even before ‘Four Sisters’ I know of her na. But them as a love team that’s different. And I can say na yes they’re different.

“I’ve handled different love teams, so sila I can see the difference, why they are tagged as phenomenal and I see why they are the new gen love team. Kasi iba sila.
“I am not saying that one is better than the other, like the other love teams because they are unique in their own ways. And, sila mayroon din silang distinct flavor and distinct personality. Iba ‘yung mindset nila, iba ‘yung how they view love teams.
“Iba rin ‘yung they have their plans and how they see their future. So, I see why they are the new gen, very new gen and kanilang mindset,” sabi pa ng direktor.
Dagdag pa ni Direk Mae, “Na-impress din ako sa kanila kasi talagang they want this. Hindi sila ‘yung okay nagkataon sumikat sila, nagkataon hit ‘yung projects nila and then nandoon na ang yabang na, no. Sobra silang ano pa rin, they want to make this work. They want to make this work even more.
“Nabilib ako like si Donny, you would think that he is a nepo baby. You would think na parang mga ganun ang mga sinasabi but no. Nagulat ako na he really, really wants this.
“I never knew this about him. I never knew that he really went through workshops on his own to prove to his family that he really wants this. Hindi siya ‘yung type na ibinigay na lang sa kanya because just because of his background but he work hard for this.
“Si Belle, she’s been around for a long time so she knows what hard work is. Ito napaka-hardwoking na couple nila, na love team nila. And, together I know that they will go very, very far.
“You think that now malayo na ang narating nila, they will go even further because of the way they work together and the way they, parang ‘yung attitude nila and their values about work,” aniya pa.
