Gerald Anderson, Jessy Mendiola team up in 'Budoy'

Gerald Anderson and Jessy Mendiola will try out their chemistry in the upcoming teleserye on ABS-CBN titled "Budoy."

Via ABS-CBN News, Gerald had said he is excited to be having Jessy to be his leading lady.

"Sobra siyang beautiful. Excited akong makatrabaho siya kahit magkasama na kami sa isa pang soap ('Kung Tayo'y Magkakalayo')," he said.

Jessy, on the other hand, is feeling the pressure of the new team-up.

“Pressured din ako na sana ‘yung love team din namin maging okay. But I guess as individual artists mas maganda kung solo-solo tapos magsasama kami (at) magugustuhan nila kami,” Jessy told Push.

Gerald Anderson and Jessy Mendiola will be working along with veteran actresses Zsa Zsa Padilla, Janice de Belen and Mylene Dizon in the series.

Budoy (ABS-CBN) is series about mentally-challenged people. It is said to be an "advocacy-serye."
