Paulo Avelino, Kylie Verzosa detail the experience after being paired in new OFW-themed film
Paulo Avelino and Kylie Verzosa are paired in a new series dubbed “Elevator” after six years the two were paired in a romantic drama, “Kasal,” a 2018 movie directed by Ruel Bayani.
The new movie which is directed by Philip King saw Paulo and Kylie playing the main roles as Jared and Bettina who were overseas Filipino workers (ofw) and fell in love but their love was put into a test to an extent that they had to choose either their career or love.

Speaking in an interview with the media, Kylie expressed happiness to have once again met Paulo on screens for them to work together on one project.
She indicated that the movie produced by Viva and Rein Entertainment saw Paulo playing the quiet mysterious role.
“He kept the same persona all throughout the shoot. I really respect him as an actor. I really love working with him. I think he’s one of the hottest actors out there. He cares about the scene and I think we worked together well,” she added.
Kylie commended Paulo for exhibiting a different character from all the other projects she saw him undertaking.
“He’s very diverse! With the story, we were able to showcase our respective characters,” she stated.
Paulo also confirmed that filming “Elevator” was not an awkward moment for him and Kylie.
“Since we filmed in Singapore, I discovered with Kylie, she is really a head-turner. Sometimes, I’m ashamed to stand next to her because I might get into a fight,” he said.
Paulo was excited that things were returning into normalcy after the pandemic took him off the set.
“During the pandemic, we missed acting. We missed working. We needed to work to also earn.
I’m very grateful that I have two TV shows that are now airing: ‘What’s Wrong With Secretary Kim’ on the Kapamilya Channel and ‘Linlang’ on Prime Video. Our shooting for ‘Elevator’ went well’ last year,” he shared.
Paulo thanked the audience for their support and hoped “Elevator” would be one of the most loved series by the audiences.
“This wouldn’t have happened if the audience didn’t accept me. That’s why I’m thankful to our TV audience. I’m hoping this film will also do good and I’ll be able to thank the moviegoers properly.”
