MANILA – Actor John Lloyd Cruz admitted he is considering taking an "early retirement" so he could spend more “quality life” with his family and would-be family.
During the press conference of his upcoming movie “It Takes A Man and A Woman” on Sunday, Cruz said he wants to spend more time with his loved ones – something he could not at the moment because of his hectic schedule.
“I’m thinking of early retirement. Gusto kong ma-enjoy ang buhay ko kasama ang magiging pamilya ko. I want to spend more years and quality life with my family and would-be family,” he said.
“It’s basically all about achieving quality in life. When you are in this business, talagang medyo toxic. Kung kakayanin na to have an early retirement and enjoy more quality time with my family, with my mom especially, with my love ones,” he added.
Cruz said part of this decision is making better choices when it comes to projects.
“Siguro kapag dumating 'yun, on the side, pili tayo ng mga projects. Kung mayroon tayong ganoong privilege, ‘yun sana ang magawa ko,” he said.
But at what age does he see this happening?
“Hindi ko pa masabi kung anong edad. Hindi naman age mo ang magdi-dictate noon. Kapag dumating na siya at naramdaman mo na, baka puwede na. Mahirap magbigay ng edad,” he explained.
Cruz just finished shooting his third movie with Sarah Geronimo, “It Takes A Man and A Woman,” which is set to be shown in theaters nationwide on March 30.
Prior to this, Cruz had a movie ("The Mistress" and a television series ("A Beautiful Affair") with Bea Alonzo, as part of their love team's anniversary celebration.
