"The fear is that there is so much pressure, so many people that I can let down. You know when you are given this opportunity and you are around so many amazing actors you don't want to mess up," Labrusca told ABS-CBN News at the sidelines of the back-to-back press conference for "Nag-Aapoy na Damdamin" and "Pira-Pirasong Paraiso" on Thursday.

"This is a make or break situation. So I think the fear is what's gonna keep me alive," he added.

Labrusca personally considers "Nag-Aapoy na Damdamin" as his comeback series after all the controversies that he faced.

"So gagalingan ko to prove a point," Labrusca vowed.

In March 2022, Labrusca was cleared of a long-pending acts of lasciviousness case filed in 2021 in Makati.
