Handang-handa nang mag-all out sa pagiging daring ang dyowa ni Billy Crawford na si Coleen Garcia. Pagkatapos ng ginawa niyang pagpapaseksi sa pelikulang “#Y” na showing na sa Dec. 10, sasabak na rin sa paghuhubad sa bagong serye ng ABS-CBN na Passion de Amor.
Ayon kay Coleen, mas naging confident siya sa pagiging palaban sa hubaran dahil sa “#Y”, “I feel like this movie did more good to me than bad. And dahil doon, mas naging kampante ako as an actress to accept roles that are beyond my comfort zone. If I know that it’s worth it.
“Pero hindi naman yung porke’t like… kasi, I have a soap now and I did something sexy. Actually, ano siya, e, although it’s revealing, it’s not sensual. Ang Pasion de Amor naman is sensual.
So, may slight difference pa rin iyon. Kasi, other people the way they see it, parang it’s revealing. ‘A, you’re a sexy actress!’ I don’t wanna be limited to that, e,” sey ng It’s Showtime host.
Pero ayon sa dalaga, ayaw niyang matawag na sexy star, “I don’t wanna be limited to that. I wanna look beyond that and think, is this role worth it? Kung anong makukuha ko from this role, what I will make people feel.
So I guess it is worth it, di ba? Parang to step out of your comfort zone. And I’m gonna continue to do that as long as I know that it’s worth it.”
Bukod sa nabing serye, gagawin din ni Coleen ang pelikulang Ex With Benefits kung saan makakasama niya si Sam Milby.
“Yung ano kasi, iyong Ex With Benefits… Arkisha ang name ng character ko dito and ex siya ni Adams to be played by Sam Milby. Based ito sa Wattpad story kasi, pero they changed it up a bit to add more emotions to the story.
And that’s why na tinanggap ko iyan. “Kasi when I read the book, parang ang daming parts na parang sexy-sexy lang. If it’s sexy-sexy lang, I don’t want naman ng role na ganoon.
Gusto ko naman ay iyong may substance,” kuwento ni Coleen.At marami raw silang bed scene rito ni Sam, “Yes, ang daming love scenes at kissing scenes dito. But I accepted it, iyong una kasi ay hindi ko ito tinanggap dahil may limitations ako noon.
But this one, I feel like it’s worth it. “Kasi, there’s so much room for emotions. Alam mo iyong… I feel like that it’s something that will really help me grow as an actress. Then, I’m willing to step outside of my comfort zone, for a certain things.
If I feel like that it’s really worth it and I feel that it will really help me grow,” esplika ng TV host-actress. Nagpaalam daw talaga siya kay Billy bago niya tinanggap ang nasabing proyekto, “Kasi noong una, nabasa niya ang script at nanibago siya. ‘Ha, are you sure you’re willing to do that? Parang hindi ako sanay na ganyan iyong role mo.’
“Pero after naman the film, masaya siya. Sobrang… siya iyong the first to congratulate me and he was the first to let me know how I did. And he is very honest, hindi ba? So, I trust his opinion. And ayon, just to see that he was happy, I guess na we did something right with the film.”
