ICYMI, we will soon see Joshua Garcia and Julia Barretto in a zombie film called Block Z! According to director Mikhail Red, the film will feature a group trapped inside a university that's been quarantined due to a ~mysterious~ infection. Julia will play a medical student named PJ, while Joshua will play Lucas, a varsity basketball player. The movie is set to be released towards the latter part of 2019.
During an interview with ABS-CBN for their upcoming film, Joshua shared how he deals with bashers: That is, he straight up IGNORES them! Joshua said that for him and other actors, it's better to conserve energy, even if comments seem to be below the belt. "Siguro try lang nilang manahimik na lang, alam mo yun? Kaysa pumatol. Waste of energy e. Anong pupuntahan ng pagpatol mo sa kanila? O pagsabi mo sa kanila?"
He added, "Hindi ka nila kilala e. Ikaw lang yung may kilala sa sarili mo. So kahit ano pang sabihin nila sa 'yo, hindi ka maaapektuhan kasi kilala mo yung sarili mo. Never ako papatol sa ganyan."
He also talked about how he encourages his love team partner Julia not to reply to them. "Kahit si Julia minsan nakikita ko nga nag-ti-tweet siya e. Sabi ko, 'Huwag mo na patulan yun. Mag-relax ka na.' For example, ako pumatol, ang daming nakakilala sa akin, kung sino talaga ako. Yung family ko, friends ko, yung mahal ko sa buhay. Yun pa lang okay na ako e kasi yun yung mga importanteng tao sa akin. Okay na ako dun. Hindi ko kailangan yung opinion ng mga bashers."
