Now that he is starring in a lead role in a film, his fans and friends had no words but positive feedback to his character in Papa Mascot.

During his online pocket interview to promote his latest film, Ken expressed his excitement and worries during the first day of showing of his latest movie.

“Every time naman po na may pelikula akong ginagawa, yung showing po ng first day, talagang nakakakaba. But at the same time, proud. Proud ako because alam ko na nakagawa kami ng isang material na quality. Isang material na matagal ko nang pangarap noon pa,” granted the actor.

He also expressed his thanks to all the people who supported him in the film.

“Nakakalakas ng loob, mas lalong lumakas ‘yung loob ko. Nabawasan ‘yung kaba ko because the executives of GMA-7, sumuporta po sila sa’kin, nandu’n po sila,” he said.

“Mas lumigaya ako. Mas naging masaya ‘yung puso ko kasi nakita ko ‘yung reaction nila, kung paano nila nagustuhan ‘yung pelikula. ‘Yung iba, humahagulgol, umiiyak after the movie,” Ken shared.

Now, going back to the question, the actor found it hard to answer and admitted that there are times he also thinks of what role he wants to do next. In the end, there is still a long list of roles he wants to do.

“I wanted to do so many things. Kahit ako nag-iisip, ano pa ‘yung teleseryeng pwede kong gawin. Actually,  marami pa. But I’m just so blessed that I was able to do such characters like Destiny Rose as transgender, si Boyet as a person with autism, si Nelson at si Tyler, a person with a split personality,” stated Ken.

“Gusto kong gumawa ng isang teleserye na may kinalaman sa kultura ng mga Pilipino, o sa mga pinagmulan nating mga Pilipino. For example, gusto kong gumawa ng mga teleserye na may kinalaman sa Indigenous People (IP) dito sa Pilipinas. Gusto kong gumawa ng mga teleserye na may kinalaman sa history ng Pilipinas. Gusto kong gumawa ng fantaserye. Gusto kong gumawa ng isang serye about heroism,” he continued.

The Papa Mascot actor shared that in every role that he plays, he always learns lessons that he applies to his personal life. 

“Ang takeway ko sa pelikula…’wag tayong huhusga agad ng tao hangga’t ‘di natin alam ang istorya at pinagdaanan niya sa buhay. Kasi we tend to judge a person easily especially we have social media now,” he explained.

The 30-year-old Kapuso actor also shared with the press that two films are waiting for him – one will be shot in Taiwan while the other is in Thailand and he later revealed that he will be working with a famous Thai actor.

“After this, in July, pupunta po kami ng Taiwan to shoot a movie. Makakasama ko naman po dito ang isa sa magagaling na aktres sa kabilang istasyon po, sa ABS-CBN,” said Ken.

Ken will fly to Thailand after his engagements in Taiwan. He said the details of the project are still under wraps.

Papa Mascot is now showing in cinemas nationwide.
