Marian Rivera "napakabait pala", says Tom Rodriguez

Kapamilya actor Tom Rodriguez is working with a bunch of Kapuso stars in the 2011 remake of "Temptation Island".

In the film, he plays one of Marian Rivera's two leading men.

It's their first time to work together, and Tom, who's still a newbie in the industry and has done only 2 films so far, admitted that he was really intimidated and scared the first time he met Marian Rivera during the story-con for the movie.

But his impressions with Marian all changed when they already started to film for "Tempation Island" last weekend.

Tom and the rest of the cast took a break from the shooting for the Holy Week observance and on Twitter (@akosimangtomas), Tom shared how he misses her co-stars, who are mostly Kapuso, and how he appreciates their being nice to him, most especially Marian who he finds as super nice and "kalog".

"Packup na ang temptation island for the holyweek...seryoso ako na mamimiss ko talaga ang buong cast at crew ng temptation island. Wala akong masabi sa kabaitan nila at kung pano nila akong tratuhing parang parte ng grupo :) lalo na si marian na natakot ako at naiintimidate nung una ko syang mameet eh napakabait pala at sobrang kalog :) ang astig nilang lahat :)," Tom posted on Twitter today.

Fans of Marian are happy to hear that coming from Tom, especially that Marian usually makes impressions as being "mataray", "maldita" etc.

A fan (@iamprimadona) even replied to Tom: "@akosimangtomas its nice that u had a chance to know the "real" marian. most of the time 1st impressions are really inaccurate."

And Tom tweeted back, ":) that is very true".

Aside from Marian and Tom, "Temptation Island" also stars Lovi Poe, Solenn Heussaff, Rufa Mae Quinto, Mikael Daez and Aljur Abrenica.

Mikael Daez starts shooting for 'Temptation Island' (Set Photos)

Mikael Daez has replaced Paulo Avelino as one of the leading men in Regal Film's upcoming film "Temptation Island".

Paulo's role in the film went to Mikael after the former begged off for the role due to health reasons, as what was revealed by his manager Leo Dominguez last Friday.

"Because @mepauloavelino fell ill and is still recuperating, he had no choice but to give up his leading man role in 'temptation island'.:(" Dominguez posted on Twitter.

Paulo was advised by his doctor to rest after he was diagnosed with pneumonia.

Cameras have already started rolling for "Temptation Island" since yesterday in Ilocos now with its new cast member Mikael Daez.

The newbie actor, who will soon play on TV as Marian Rivera's leading man in "Amaya", is playing leading man to Solenn Heussaff in his debut movie.

And guess what's Mikael and Solenn's first scene together? A kissing scene.

Check out fresh photos of the cast on the set of "Temptation Island":

Marian Rivera gets the most daring role in 'Temptation Island'

Marian Rivera, Heart Evangelista, Lovi Poe and Solenn Heussaff lead the cast of "Temptation Island" which will start shooting this month, April 2011.

And Marian reportedly has the most daring role of all, a role which was originally portrayed by Azenith Briones in the 80's version of the film.

When asked about it yesterday on Showbiz Central, Marian said it will be her first time to play such kind of role. "Talagang na-cha-challenge ako na gawin ito, kasi for the first time ko lang gagawin itong character na ito. Pero at least nakausap ko naman si Direk na gagawin ko sya na hindi naman as Azenith, hindi naman ibig sabihin na sobrang kokopyahin ko sya, gagawin ko pa rin as Marian pa rin."

Here's a video of the cast during the presscon for the film, as featured yesterday on Showbiz Central:


Playing their leading men are Aljur Abrenica, Joem Bascon, Paulo Avelino and Tom Rodriguez.

Temptation Island 2011 will be directed by Cris Martinez.
