Jennylyn Mercado Fanblog

Jennylyn Mercado is happy to have finished filming Eternity, but she admits that it was hard to part with the movie’s cast and crew.

“Malungkot dahil medyo magkakahiwa-hiwalay na kami,” she shares. Jennylyn plays Maegan, who falls in love with Cholo (Mark Herras). The two later discover that they knew each other from their past lives as Milagros (Iza Calzado) and as Crisanto (Dingdong Dantes). “I’m a simple girl who has this simple family na may past na related din sa past ng family ni Mark,” Jen says. For Jennylyn, some of her most memorable moments while filming were in Vigan. “Maulan doon pero kahit na umuulan, enjoy na enjoy kami,” Jen says.

“Nafi-feel namin na kaming lahat, magkakasama. Tapos ‘yung ulan, habang nagshoo-shoot kami, ine-enjoy din namin, kahit na nababasa kami, okay lang.” Unlike her co-actors, Jen didn’t have to learn any special skills to play Maegan. “Wala namang (challenge) kasi hindi ako nag-train ng Spanish, so for preparation, script lang, nagbasa ako ng script,” she says. Jen also says that what made her role stand out from all the other roles that she has played are the people that she’s working with. “Different lang dahil sa mga kasama ko, si Ate Iza and Kuya Dingdong, first time ko sila makasama sa movie,” she says.

Eternity opens in theatres on September 6, 2006. Catch it and find out if Maegan and Cholo will be able to make right the wrong done to Crisanto and Milagros one hundred years ago. “Iniimbita namin kayo manood ng Eternity, napakagandang pelikula,” says Jennylyn. “Pinaghirapan naming lahat ito. I’m sure mag-e-enjoy kayo at kikiligin kayo.”
