The internet has been buzzing with excitement after the much-awaited first shooting day of Kathryn Bernardo and Alden Richards in Canada for their highly anticipated project together. Fans have been eagerly waiting to see the two superstars work together on screen, and it seems their first day of filming has already given us plenty to talk about.
From emotional moments to unexpected surprises, the shooting day turned out to be far more than just the usual day on set. Let’s dive into what really happened behind the scenes and why their first day in Canada left fans in awe.
The Big First Day: Unexpectedly Heartfelt and Hilarious!
Kathryn and Alden’s first shooting day wasn’t without its share of surprises. The moment the two stars walked onto the set, their natural chemistry was undeniable. The director and the production team immediately noticed how comfortable they were with each other, despite this being their first time working together on a major project.
However, things didn’t go as smoothly as expected at first. Kathryn, who is known for her professionalism, was initially caught off guard by the cold weather in Canada. The crew shared a behind-the-scenes video of Kathryn bundled up in layers of jackets and scarves while trying to stay warm between takes. Alden, ever the gentleman, was seen offering her a heated pad to keep warm, sparking smiles from both the crew and fans watching the footage.
One of the crew members jokingly commented, “Alden, you’re not just a co-actor, you’re also the official ‘kamusta’ of the set!” referring to Alden’s warmth and thoughtfulness. Kathryn laughed and said, “Sana may heated blanket din for me!” This lighthearted exchange quickly went viral, with fans commenting on how sweet and caring Alden was.
The Emotional Moment: Alden and Kathryn Share Their Journey
As the day progressed, things took a more heartfelt turn. Between takes, Alden and Kathryn took a quiet moment for themselves, away from the cameras. Kathryn shared how grateful she was to finally be working with Alden, and expressed how much she admired his professionalism and kindness. In return, Alden complimented Kathryn’s dedication to her craft, admitting that he had always been in awe of how she handles her projects.
This moment was captured on camera by a crew member and shared on social media. Fans couldn’t help but notice the genuine respect and admiration between the two stars. One fan commented: “This is the energy I needed today. Alden and Kathryn are the perfect duo! So excited to see them on screen. #AldenKathryn #TeamWorkMakesTheDreamWork”.
Behind-the-Scenes Drama: The Funny Outtakes
At one point, Kathryn accidentally tripped over her costume during a dramatic scene, and in a moment of panic, she laughed and said, “Sorry, Alden! I promise I’ll stay on my feet for the next take!”. Alden, ever the comedian, responded, “I got you, Kath! I’ll catch you next time.” Their playful banter and easygoing friendship were clearly seen, and the entire set erupted in laughter.
The director even joked, “This is not a romantic comedy, you two! Save the giggles for the scene!”, to which Alden quipped, “Sorry po, pero feeling namin may comedy factor sa ‘min!” (Sorry, but we feel we have a comedy factor between us!) Their fun-filled dynamic made the set feel more like a family reunion than a professional working environment, and fans absolutely loved the genuine camaraderie.
