Ex With Benefits brings Derek back to Star Cinema

MANILA, Philippines - Derek Ramsay, Meg Imperial and Coleen Garcia star in the big-screen for the very first time in Star Cinema and Viva Films’ upcoming romantic drama Ex With Benefits.

Ex With Benefits revolves around the story of former lovers, 35-year-old Adam (Derek) and 28-year-old Arki (Coleen). Adam and Arki went to school together and had a very promising relationship when Arki suddenly disappeared from Adam’s life.

Fast-forward to today, the two met once more that made all the pains of the past come rushing back. As they worked together, the two cover up the pains of their past by living for the moment and enjoying the newfound relationship — a relationship without label, that is.

However, pain is every person’s enemy and it’s bound to hit without any warning. Just as everything is getting on track, the secrets of the past will resurface, forcing Adam and Arki to discover if exes could really give each other a second chance or not?

Ex With Benefits is Coleen’s big movie launch and Derek’s comeback with Star Cinema after Praybeyt Benjamin and No Other Woman (and Corazon: Ang Unang Aswang under Skylight Films). This is also the second time that Coleen worked with Gino Santos as she was part of the ensemble cast of #Y where she received critical acclaim as her remarkable performance in the film gave her a Best Supporting Actess nomination in the 31st PMPC Star Awards For Movies.

Ex With Benefits is also the first movie of Meg under Star Cinema, who previously starred on ABS-CBN’s Moon of Desire. The film also stars Rayver Cruz, Tirso Cruz III, Carmi Martin, Kitkat, Juan Rodrigo, Nina Ricci Alagao, Jobelle Salvador and Mengge Cobarrubias.

Ex With Benefits is showing in cinemas nationwide starting Sept. 2.
