Kapuso talent Rocco Nacino and Kapamilya actress Miles Ocampo are the stars of TBA Studios’ Write About Love, a romantic-comedy about characters who are struggling to write a romance film. 

In the story, Rocco plays a “veteran” writer who teams up with a newbie (Miles) to create the perfect romantic movie.

“But they have clashing views,” Rocco told Manila Standard in an interview. “We must work together to create a love story. However, our personalities, views, and styles make things difficult for us.”

Though the film’s main premise revolves around the romance that blossoms between the lead cast, Rocco said that the project is a perfect tribute for writers, the unsung heroes of every story that comes alive on the small and big screens.

According to Rocco Nacino, Jerold Tarog is his character's peg in 'Write About Love.'

“When we watch a good movie, we always ask ourselves, ‘How did they do it? How did they think of that? How were they able to weave the story like that?’ That’s what the movie wanted to answer. The movie shows how it’s done,” shared Rocco.

On working with a much younger female costar who’s apparently from a different network, the 32-year-old actor had nothing but good words for Miles especially on how she was on the set.

“We have a good working relationship. I manage to keep up with her despite the age difference. And she’s a pro, we didn’t encounter any problem because she’s very cooperative like everyone on the set,” he said. 

“ I think this is a good opportunity for all artists, not just for me. Excited ako sa proyekto na pagtutulung-tulungan ng mga artist from both networks to make quality films. That’s the goal of TBA kaya laging successful ‘yung mga film nila because they produce more quality films that touch the hearts of people through storytelling,” he added.
