Former on-screen and off-screen partners Joshua Garcia and Julia Barretto, collectively known as “JoshLia,” are set to return as a loveteam in an anticipated comeback film UN/HAPPY FOR YOU, as announced by Star Cinema and Viva Films.
In a media conference streamed by STAR MAGIC on Facebook, they both shared their excitement about working with one another after a few years, considering that their last project together was the “Paubaya” music video with Moira dela Torre.
“At some point, you know, when a good material comes along—and a great team— of course, being reunited with Joshua is such an exciting idea. It almost felt like, maybe it’s the right time, it’s the right material,” said Barretto.
“I’m happy na magtatrabaho tayo ulit,” she added.
Along the interview with MJ Felipe, Joshua also remarked: “Ang exciting lang na, ‘di ba nagkanya-kanya kaming journey, and then parang ngayon magbabalikan kami…sa pelikula.”
It can be recalled that both stars dated from 2017 until 2019.
If you’re missing JoshLia projects, here are a few that would take you down memory lane:
Vince, Kath and James
In this movie, Vince (portrayed by Joshua Garcia) agrees to help his cousin James (played by Ronnie Alonte) by texting Kath (portrayed by Julia Barretto) on James’ behalf. However, as Vince continues with the charade, he finds himself developing genuine feelings for Kath.
This was released on theaters on December 25, 2016, as part of the 2016 Metro Manila Film Festival.
