Jao Mapa, Gio Alvarez share experience working with Ruru Madrid, Will Ashley

Jao Mapa and Gio Alvarez have nothing but praise for their young co-stars, Ruru Madrid and Will Ashley.

On "Fast Talk with Boy Abunda" on Tuesday, Gio, who is one of the cast members of “Delivery Boi," shared that Will is "very respectful."

“I’m like his father figure in ‘Delivery Boi,’” Gio said in Filipino.

Meanwhile, Jao, who is set to appear in “Hari ng Tondo,” described Ruru as “a nice guy.”

“You gotta love him. I mean, he’s really cool, very professional,” Jao said.

“And being an action star, he has a lot of accidents happen to him but he still fights. I’m impressed by him,” the actor added.

Gio also talked about how young actors now navigate different territories compared to their time in the '90s.

“These factors that make them these heartthrobs, modern, it’s different now,” he said. “When it comes to social media, every person has a camera on their phone. I feel bad for them.”

Jao likewise noted that young actors have different talent fees now, sharing that he used to earn P2,000 per taping day.

“Delivery Boi” airs Mondays to Fridays at 3:20 p.m. on GMA Afternoon Prime. “Hari ng Tondo” will premiere soon on GMA Network.
