MANILA — Another Donny Pangilinan and Belle Mariano title is headed to Netflix, the streaming giant has announced.

On Monday, Netflix released the trailer of “Love Is Color Blind,” indicating its March 1 release on the platform.

Originally released in December via KTX.ph, the film follows the story of the headstrong Cara (Mariano), who makes it her mission to help her best friend Ino (Pangilinan) regain his happiness, after an accident impaired his vision.

Produced by Star Cinema and directed by John Leo Datuin Garcia, “Love Is Color Blind” is billed as the highest grossing local film of 2021.

Its Netflix debut follows the massive success of “He’s Into Her,” Mariano and Pangilinan’s previous title together, as a trending offering on the streaming service.

The successive successes of Mariano and Pangilinan as a tandem — which also includes music and brands — have earned their tandem the moniker, the “New Gen Phenomenal Love Team.”

Karina Bautista is once again paired with leading man Jeremiah Lisbo in the upcoming romantic comedy film My Love Will Make You Disappear.

In an exclusive interview for PUSH ABS-CBN, the Pinoy Big Brother alumna shared how grateful she felt upon learning that Jeremiah would be her co-star in her very first film.

"We didn't know who my partner would be. And thankfully, it was Miah (Jeremiah’s nickname). Since nagka-work na kami, medyo mas madali na lang to work with, comfy na rin kami sa isa't isa. So parang yung naging dynamics namin is supportahan, if kailangan mo ng help, nandito ako, and vice versa,” she explained.

Karina and Jeremiah first worked together on the online series Halfmates, where Jeremiah starred alongside Kaori Oinuma.

Despite being in the industry for quite some time now, Karina admitted that she doesn’t want to be complacent and always feels like it’s a new experience whenever she gets teamed up with someone new.

"Parang hanggang ngayon naman nasa process of learning pa rin ako. Hindi pa rin ako yung nakakampante. Nagugulat pa rin ako sa mga nangyayari, sa mga bagong mga aktor. Kasi lahat naman iba-iba ng personality, iba-iba ng atake sa pag-arte, sa craft, ng dedication, pagmamahal, iba-iba din. So, yung pakikisama ko, nagba-vary rin siya kung paano mo ako pakikitunguhan. Kung mabait ka naman sa akin, ako naman, wala naman akong any bad blood kahit kanino. So, I'm just here to always support, love, be happy, ganyan," she shared.

Karina is known for her performances alongside her former love team partner, Aljon Mendoza, with whom she starred in several series, including the 2021 primetime drama Viral Scandal.

In this upcoming film, Karina plays the mischievous Lyka, cousin of Kim Chiu’s character Sari. 

Karina expressed how she enjoyed the role, "Dito po kasi natuwa ako kasi may pagka-comedic po siya kasi rom-com. So, ibang atake naman po and dahil ibang mga katrabaho naman din is panibago yung feels, yung vibe, yung craft na binibigay namin. And dito, si Lyka, basta may pasabog siyang ibibigay na hindi niyo iniexpect.”

The actress, who is currently studying Multimedia Arts, shared how much she enjoys seeing the behind-the-scenes process of making this film.

"Watching it happen on set, napapabilib talaga ako. And I'm trying to soak it all in. Kasi siyempre, gusto ko rin matutok. Alam ‘yan ng mga castmates ko lagi. So very supportive naman sila. Kaya nga narinig mo kanina sabi niya, galing pa kasi siyang school. Kasi alam nila," she said.

Karina also revealed how supportive her co-actors have been, understanding her commitment to her studies.

"Parang may times na I'm late, or nag-hahabol talaga ako, natataranta talaga ako, and kinakabahan. So nandon naman sila to always calm me down. Tapos parang ano naman, parang inaano nila ako na ‘hindi, okay lang.’ Like, nagugulat ako walang nagagalit sa kanila. Sobrang understanding nila," Karina shared.

Aside from My Love Will Make You Disappear, Karina is also set to appear in two more films including The Last Goodbye and a thriller titled Deadline.
