MANILA - Actor Piolo Pascual said it will be "a dream come true" for him if he is called on to play former Sen. Benigno "Ninoy" Aquino Jr. in an upcoming biopic about former president Corazon "Cory" Aquino.
Pascual, who is back in Manila after his successful Europe concert with other heartthrobs Sam Milby and John Lloyd Cruz, said that he will consider the project as "one of the biggest gifts" he will ever receive.
"If and when that happens (film role), you know, pangarap na natupad ‘yon at malaking regalo ‘yon para sa akin. It will be really, really interesting. But for now, I’m just focusing on what's at hand and doon muna tayo,” Pascual said on entertainment show "SNN: Showbiz News Ngayon."
Reports that Pascual will be part of the Aquino biopic surfaced when actress Kris Aquino announced that her siblings' original choices for the lead parts of the biopic were actress Judy Ann Santos and Pascual.
Now, asked if he will be willing to do the biopic film together with Santos - with whom he had a rift - Pascual said: "Who knows? I don't know. Tignan natin kung mangyayari. Sa kanila naman nakasalalay 'yon basta ako trabaho lang."
Previous reports said that Santos and Pascual fought over something that Santos's husband, Ryan Agoncillo, said against the actor.
At present, Pascual is back taping for ABS-CBN's series "Lovers in Paris" with KC Concepcion, with whom he is romantically linked.
