Get To Know JC Santos, The Third Wheel To James Reid And Nadine Lustre Loveteam



The much-anticipated return of phenomenal tandem of real-life couple James Reid and Nadine Lustre on primetime TV starts tomorrow, August 29, via the romantic-comedy series "Till I Met You".

The series also stars fresh and upcoming Kapamilya young actor JC Santos who plays Ali, the third wheel to the love story of James and Nadine's characters Basti and Iris.

Speaking during the grand press conference for "Till I Met You" on Sunday at La Reve Events Place in Quezon City, JC shared a bit of information about his background.

JC started as a theater actor at the University of the Philippines-Diliman. He later on became a singer and dancer at Hong Kong Disneyland and at Universal Studios Singapore before going to New York to study musical theater.

In 2014, he decided to finally pursue an acting career.

"Gusto ko po maging working actor talaga sa TV and also film," he said. "Lagi po akong nag-a-audition. Kung alin po 'yung mauna, doon lang po ako."

JC also shared that he auditioned for his role in the series.

"There was this one day na in-invite po ako para mag-audition for this role. Nilatag po sa harapan namin 'yung requirements. Marami kami. On the second day, na-meet ko na si direk Tonet and binigay na sa akin 'yung script," he said.

Having played supporting roles in his past projects, JC said he was overwhelmed when he learned that he would be one of the lead stars of "Till I Met You."

"Actually nung time na 'yun, iniisip ko okay na ako kung aawayin ko lang si James dito. Gulat na gulat po ako at hindi ako makapaniwala na isa ako sa mga bida. Nagpapasalamat po ako sa pagtitiwala talaga. Punong puno ang puso ko ngayon," he said.
