Kyle Echarri goes solo in coming-of-age summer series

Kyle Echarri is on a quest to transform his image and with the approval of director Victor Villanueva who said that the teen star “does his homework really well,” he may succeed in doing just that. 

In iWanTFC original series Beach Bros, which premiered on July 16, the 19-year-old actor proved that he’s ready for the big league.

“I’m ready but whatever the management thinks is fitting for me, I will do. I’m ready for mature roles, not just showing my body but I’m looking to show my versatility as an actor,” Kyle told Manila Standard Entertainment during the series’ grand media conference held at the Dolphy Theater.

“I’m thankful to Dreamscape for trusting me with this lead role. It’s a very big career path change which I must admit, I initially got scared to accept but I’m happy and so grateful for this,” he added mentioning Dreamscape Entertainment head Deo Endrinal as instrumental for his transition into becoming a solo and mature actor.

Alluding to Beach Bros director, Kyle stated that he’s never content with his performance, which he carefully explained as being in a constant process of learning new things.

“I never want to say that I have perfected the role. Of course, I’d like to continue giving my best. With this series, I’m happy with my role. Actually, everyone in the series — from the cast all the way down to the guests — napakasaya at sobrang nag-connect po kami, and that I think made the show extra special.”

In Beach Bros, Kyle reunites with Chie Filomeno who attempts to win him over in the story. The iWantTFC series also stars Angelica Lao, Kira Balinger, Brent Manalo, Raven Rigor, Sean Tristan, and Lance Carr.

Kyle and Chie, who spread ‘kilig’ as former housemates of PBB Kumunity celebrity edition, play each other’s love interest. Dave (Kyle) is the charming leader of a group of happy-go-lucky teenage boys known as the “Baler Boys” – Billy, Jeremy, Jason, and Pete (Lance, Sean, Brent, and Raven). 

The five boys are working hard as waiters and pool boys at a luxury resort in order to fulfill their dreams of living a comfortable life and moving to Manila.

Despite their easy-going attitude, they are also dealing with their own inner struggles. Dave is trying to convince his mother to allow him to go to Manila for college; Billy is having problems with his goal-oriented girlfriend Yasmine (Angelica); Jason is secretly in love with rich girl Erika (Kira); while Pete has suppressed feelings for his best friend. 

The boys’ lives will change when they get entangled in the affairs of Nicole (Chie), an alluring, mysterious, and hot chick who will seemingly help them navigate through their teenage crises.
