How Donny Pangilinan, Belle Mariano pull off heavy scenes in He’s Into Her 2

“We talked about it but we don’t talk.”

Donny Pangilinan says that he and Belle Mariano comfort each other after doing heavy scenes: “When we get to the set, doon na namin ilalabas, and then after, we comfort naman each other kasi hindi naman puwedeng after noon, nakabukas lang yung door na yun ‘tapos hindi mo na isasara.”

The fans of Donny Pangilinan and Belle Mariano are in for an emotional roller coaster in the latest season of He’s Into Her.

Based on the trailer, the DonBelle love team’s characters, Max (Belle) and Deib (Donny), have matured and will be doing heavy scenes.

In contrast to their cat-dog relationship in season one, Max and Deib are now a couple facing relationship problems, such as trust issues.

One of their confrontation scenes, with both of them breaking down in the rain, was shot at the top of a mountain.

During a media conference for He’s Into Her, Donny revealed how he sees this transition for their love team.

He said, “…we enjoyed the challenge, we enjoyed showing a different side of their relationship, how mature they are now, the problems they go through with their family, even their friends.

“It was seen in the trailer with Deib going through all this stuff in school facing the bullying he did before, but we enjoyed, we enjoyed showing those sides.”

Belle volunteered that Donny as well as the show’s director Chad Vidanes and writer Vanessa Valdez have helped her ease into doing the emotionally charged scenes.

She said, “Noong una, siyempre, mas kinabahan ako kasi this time, yung characters namin, mas may depth, mas kita niyo yung layers ng character namin, mas makikita niyo yung challenges na pagdadaanan nila.

“But then, of course, with the help of Direk, Miss Van, and everyone, Donny as well, sobrang big help talaga once you’re in that kind of set-up.

“We’re just in one bubble being surrounded with same cast, the same people.

“It really helps you to be back on the zone, be Max again, talagang nakakatulong siya para ma-portray mo yung character mo.”

THE ULAN SCENE

In the intense scene on mountain top, Max is confessing her love for Deib, who refuses to believe.

Both are crying, with the rains adding dramatic effect.

When PEP.ph (Philippine Entertainment Portal) asked what it felt like doing that intense scene, Belle’s eyes widened while Donny blurted, “Oh my gosh!”

Belle related, “Oh my gosh, naalala ko lang, grabe yung eksenang yun, ‘no?

“Noong shinu-shoot namin, you can even ask Direk kung gaano yung blood, sweat, and tears na pinagdaanan namin.

“But, you know, after seeing the whole thing and after just seeing the scene, sobrang worth it talaga.”

Donny added, “Hindi biro.”
