AFTER premiering and gaining recognition as 2nd Best Picture at the 2020 Metro Manila Film Festival, the boys’ love movie, The Boy Foretold by the Stars, transfers to the small screen as a six-episode series titled Love Beneath the Stars on iWantTFC. As their love story continues on the series, senior high school students Dominic (played by Adrian Lindayag) and Luke (Keann Johnson) officially become a couple. However, their relationship is threatened by scrutiny because of a scandal, a third party, and the disapproval of grown-ups. Writer and director Dolly Dulu said the movie focused on finding your soulmate and the love story. In the series, Dominic and Luke also deal with the relationship with their parents, and their characters’ commitment with each other. “This is where they will discover what it takes to be committed to someone. It is not all happy, kilig moments. There is also maturity involved with all characters,” Mr. Dulu said, in English and Filipino, at an online press conference on Aug. 9 held via Zoom. “Even if broader issues are tackled, it is still, at its core, a love story,” Mr. Dulu said.
