Jake partners with Marian

MANILA, Philippines - There is no denying the fact that Jake Cuenca is smitten with the charm and beauty of new screen partner Marian Rivera.

Jake and Marian are paired for the first time in Regal Entertainment’s Metro Manila Film Festival entry, Super Inday.

The production staff and crew can attest to how extra sweet Jake is to Dingdong Dantes’ real-life girlfriend.

“Tuwing may shooting sina Marian at Jake, lagi itong may dalang pagkain para sa aktres. Kung wala lang Dingdong si Marian papasok sa utak ng mga nakakakita na nagkakamabutihan na ng loob ang dalawa.

“Minsan nga, sumama ang katawan ni Marian sa shooting at tipong lalagnatin. Aba, to the rescue naman agad si Jake at binilhan ng gamut si Marian.

“Ganoon katindi ang pag-aalaga ni Jake sa kanyang leading lady. No wonder, madaling magustuhan ng mga babae si Jake. Ang sarap siguro talaga niyang magmahal,” relates a staff.

In the 2010 remake of the classic Maricel Soriano starrer, Jake plays the role of Amazing who, like Super Inday (Marian), has supernatural powers.

Together, Amazing and Super Inday battle evil doers and fall in love in the process. The two are yet to shoot their “sizzling” kissing scene, though.

Providing the film’s comic touch are Pokwang and John Lapus (as the Golden Bibe).

Super Inday is one of Regal matriarch Lily Monteverde’s favorite Regal productions. She and daughter Roselle Monteverde-Teo gave the movie a more contemporary feel coupled with state-of-the-art special effects for kiddie viewers and the entire family to enjoy this Christmas season.

Super Inday will hit the screens starting Dec. 25.
