Promising actor and “Hello Stranger: The Movie” lead star JC Alcantara then appeared to express his gratitude to the movie’s producers, Black Sheep, for his biggest break in showbiz. JC said he will always remember all the struggles he encountered in bid to become an actor. He said he never gave up despite all the rejections and trials he encountered. JC is also very thankful for the massive support that he gets from his family and from his fans, as well. At first, JC said he was worried that the public would rebuke the premise of the Hello Stranger series and movie, since same-sex relationships are still generally frowned upon in a very conservative society. But he is thankful that Hello Stranger was warmly received from the time it first streamed as a digital series up to the production of its film version. In answering the question on how important it is to have a big heart when it comes to reaching your dreams, he said, “Kailangan mahalin mo ‘yung trabaho mo para mahalin ka rin ng mga tao sa paligid mo.”
