Angel Locsin, Direk Cathy Molina and John Lloyd Cruz*

"Imortal"  lead stars Angel Locsin and John Lloyd Cruz will be reuniting in an upcoming romantic-comedy flick this 2012.

Directed by Cathy Garcia-Molina, Angel and John Lloyd's new movie has been officially titled "Unofficially Yours". It will be released under Star Cinema this January 2012, according to reports.

"Unofficially Yours" is about two people who found themselves falling in love with each other despite being not ready to enter in a romantic relationship yet. In the movie, John Lloyd is portraying as Macky Galvez, a depressed young man who can't figure out the reason behind his failed relationships. Angel, meanwhile, is Ces, a modern-day woman who is afraid of committing herself into relationships.

Angel recently revealed that their movie is not just filled with the usual "kilig" and laughter of movies of this genre but it has a unique story and there are daring scenes as well.

“Iba siya, ibang story. Usually, hindi siya pinaguusapan, pero alam natin na nangyayari siya sa paligid natin. Very interesting yung topic.Tapos yung love scenes namin hindi naman siya yung tipong nakakainis panoorin. Sakto lang naman po. First time namin pareho gawin yung mga medyo maselang eksena dito sa pelikula.” she said.

Regarding their love scenes, John Lloyd said "Iisipin mo yun, ulit-ulitin mo. Nasa taas kami ng hagdanan nun ‘di ba? Simulan mo sa baba, tapos baba kayo ulit, ganon. Hunk [ako dito]. Gusto ko i-maintain lang yung body ko e. Mahirap lang talaga. Yun lang ang ma-i-o-offer namin ngayon. Sana abangan niyo.”

The tentative release date of "Unofficially Yours" will be on January 18, 2012.

Just a little update on the two:

Piolo won the "Hottest Actor" award at the recently concluded Yahoo! OMG Awards 2011 (details HERE).

Angel is also said to play Darna again but this time it would be on ABS-CBN (details HERE).

Angel Locsin as Darna on ABS-CBN?

Angel Locsin is said to be playing once again the role of the Noypi female superhero Darna which would have to be one of the memorable characters Angel ever portrayed. But this time it will be on the Kapamilya network.

According to reports, ABS-CBN has finally acquired the rights to do a remake of "Darna" and Angel Locsin is again the one slated to do the role of the superhero.

"Darna" was remade by the GMA-7 a couple of times, with Angel Locsin taking the lead role in 2005 and Marian Rivera in 2009. Learning the news about ABS-CBN doing the show, was said to have made the rival network dismayed especially that another popular show on their network "Dyesebel" was also purchased by the Kapamilya.

Yes, "Darna" and "Dyesebel" reportedly will be on ABS-CBN soon!

Do you think Angel Locsin should take the Darna role once again? And who do you have in mind the best to play Dyesebel? Feel free to comment below.
