The newest iWant program will feature Kapamilya stars Belle Mariano and Donny Pangilinan as they team up for the new series “He’s Into Her.”
Directed by Chad Vidanes and produced by ABS-CBN Films, the series is based on the bestselling book with the same title by Maxine “Jiji” Lat.
During an interview with ABS-CBN News, Mariano and Pangilinan shared their excitement of working with each other.
For his part, Pangilinan, who plays Dave, noted that although the book was written back in 2012, it remains relevant up to now.
After coming from a previous team-up with Kisses Delavin that formed the DonKiss love pair, Pangilinan is feeling the pressure with this new project considering the success of the book where the series was based. “Of course, pressured kasi ang daming fans ng book. We will really do our best. I want to tell everyone right now that we will really do whatever it takes to portray the Dave and Max that they envision in the novel to the show because we don’t want to upset anyone and ourselves as well,” he added.
According to Vidanes, “He’s Into Her” is coming-of-age romantic-comedy.
“It shows how Gen Z’s cope in their daily lives, kung paano sila mag-survive and to teach them na with their family and friends na they can [face] any obstacles they encounter,” the director added.
Other members of the cast features are Jeremiah Lisbo, Dalia Varde, Criza Taa, Melizza Jimenez, Vivoree Esclito, Joao Constancia, Ashley del Mundo, Kaori Oinuma, Limer Veloso, Gello Marquez and Rhys Miguel Eugenio.
The youth series will stream soon on iWant.
