Jolo Revilla (mb.com.ph) Jolo Revilla Seemingly still reeling from his rumored breakup with “Sana Dalawa Ang Puso” star Jodi Sta. Maria, Jolo Revilla says he is “getting there” as cryptic as that may sound to those who don’t know what’s really going on between the two actors. “All I can say is that she brought out the best in me. I can’t say anything except that she made me a more responsible person. I love her, that’s all I can say,” he said in Filipino at a pocket presscon for “Tres,” a trilogy where he stars in the “72 Hours” episode. Jolo added even more enigmatically: “Let’s take it one step at a time. I’ll get focused on myself. I believe that the Lord will decide on where we will all lead to.” How curious. Studies Being a public servant of Cavite, Vice Governor to be exact, Jolo made it a point to earn a degree in Bachelor of Arts major in Legal Studies at the Lyceum of the Philippines University. In September, he will take a short course on Leadership for the 21st Century at Harvard University. Though he is arming up on knowledge through education, Jolo cleared, “I’m not running for higher position.” “I want to take it one step at a time. I’m doing this for myself, not for anybody. We make ordinances and resolutions as a vice governor and presiding officer of the Sangguniang Panlalawigan of Cavite. It is just but proper that we study and continue to study for our constituents. It is a must. Just because you have graduated from college it’s all okay. It should be a continuous process because people evolve. It’s like gadgets that keep on upgrading. We need to do the same,” he stressed. Full-blast Making a comeback in acting, first via Coco Martin’s “FPJ’s Ang Probinsiyano,” Jolo is glad to be quite active anew in show business. He started taping for “Ang Probinsiyano” two months ago and he immensely enjoys the experience. “It’s a complete story. There’s love story, drama, family and action,” Jolo enthused. He remembers an acting project with Coco Martin years ago. “We did a scene together in ‘Ang Agimat: Anting-Anting Ni Lolo.’” “I am happy for him because he was able to bring back the action genre. It’s a big thing because he is able to give opportunities for other actors to make a comeback, especially stuntment. Actually, he was able to give artists a chance to return to the industry.” Coco’s vision is something Jolo shares. “With our movie ‘Tres,’ we’d like to bring back action in the industry because most movies nowadays are love stories and rom-coms. I think it’s about time we return to doing, showing action films.” Playing a PDEA agent in “72 Hours,” the young actor-politician did some action scenes, himself, foremost of which is a car chase.
