Nadine Lustre and James Reid with JC Santos
“TILL I Met You” actor James Reid has expressed his support for same-sex marriage.
“I’m all for it,” the actor was quoted as saying in a PEP interview.
James is one of the lead stars of ABS-CBN’s latest drama series “Till I Met You” which, he said, would “discuss LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender) issues.
“A person should not be afraid to show who he really is and should be free to do what he wants,” said James.
The 23-year-old actor also revealed that a gay friend had expressed his romantic feelings for him and that he found nothing wrong with it.
“Since he is a good friend, he understood when I told him that I’m OK to just be his buddy,” he said.
The new teleserye stars the love team of real-life couple James Reid and Nadine Lustre, along with newcomer JC Santos.
“The story is one of a kind—I don’t want to give it away. The love triangle is uncommon,” he said, adding that the plot is “more mature” compared to their past drama
series, “On the Wings of Love.”
“Till I Met You” is under the direction of Antoinette Jadaone.
The series was shot partly in Greece. James and Nadine, collectively known as
JaDine, spent two weeks in the European country, specifically in the city of Athens and on the islands of Santorini and Mykonos.
