MANILA - The first official synopsis of the much-anticipated Star Cinema film "Just the 3 of Us" has been revealed.

Set to be released on April 27, the romantic comedy stars for the first time together Kapamilya actor John Lloyd Cruz and award-winning actress Jennylyn Mercado.

It will be directed by Cathy Garcia-Molina, who helmed the highest grossing Filipino film of all time "A Second Chance."

The official logline begins: "Just the 3 of Us" is centered on an unlikely love story between polar opposites Uno (Cruz) and CJ (Mercado) – two strangers, and how one night changes their lives forever.

"Unforeseen circumstances collide and force Uno and CJ to live under the same roof as they both deal with their sense of responsibility and their yearning for security."

"Uno is motivated by his sense of family while CJ is governed by an unconditional love that should put her first above everything else."

The unlikely thing that binds Uno and CJ together paves the way for them to find in each other the kind of love they never thought they needed," it concluded.
