MANILA, Philippines – John Lloyd Cruz may have incredulously thrown his head back in mirth over the notion that he’d be taking more “daring” roles from here on, but he didn’t completely rule out leaving little to the audience’s imagination, if need be.
“Daring parang nakakadiri naman ‘yun,” Cruz said in jest to Bulletin Entertainment and other members of the press during Biogesic’s Thanksgiving Lunch for the success of the actor’s film “Unofficially Yours.”
Cruz, whose most recent blockbuster offering with Angel Locsin has been dubbed as his “sexiest” film to date, said that he’s still not too keen in shedding off his wholesome reputation.
“Ang intention naman sa akin ‘eh hindi para ipakita na maganda ‘yung katawan mo, hindi ‘eh. Kaya lang ‘yun talaga ‘yung hinihingi nung eksena so binigay ‘ko lang,” explained the 28-year-old star.
“And ‘yung sa sinasabi nila na magpapa-sexy ka na ba kasi nagpa-sexy ka ngayon, hindi ‘yun ang intention no’n,” he clarified.
Having suggested that he "delivers" whatever a film requires every time, Cruz was asked if he'd be comfortable doing a "butt exposure" scene for a film in the future.
To this he replied, “Siguro kung kailangan. Kasi parang you wouldn’t want to do something for the sake of doing it ‘di ba? Kailangan mo ng tamang motivation ‘eh para magawa mo ito ‘eh, otherwise, magmumukha siyang [pilit] na parang ‘bakit mo ginawa ‘yun? Para saan? Anung sense, ‘di ba?’ So ‘yun ang gusto mong i-avoid.”
So, that's something to hold on to for the fans of the rom-com superstar that, in due time and with a promising script, he could star in a sizzling sequence and bare his behind a la Derek Ramsay in the 2011 blockbuster film “No Other Woman.”
