Bea Binene and Wilbert Ross get close while filming ‘Golden Scenery of Tomorrow’
MANILA, Philippines — Bea Binene and Wilbert Ross have grown closer since working on the romantic series “Golden Scenery of Tomorrow.” The Viva One series, produced by Studio Viva in cooperation with OC Records, is an adaptation of the best-selling Wattpad novel by Gwy Saludes.
“Golden Scenery of Tomorrow” is the fifth installment of the phenomenal “University Series” after “The Rain in España,” “Safe Skies Archer,” “Chasing in the Wild” and “Avenues of the Diamond.” The latest offering is helmed by Victor Villanueva (“Patay Na Si Hesus” and “Kidnap for Romance”).
“We’re friends,” Bea stated during the presscon when asked about the nature of their relationship. “I think with Wilbert, especially in this series, we got to know each other more. And I think we’re still getting to know each other more. But I admit, we became closer while working on this series.”
“Are we opposites? Parang sakto lang. It depends. He’s into arts, ako po, medyo maarte lang. He’s also into a healthy lifestyle, ako medyo lang. But I think there are things we’ll agree on,” added she.
Wilbert, on the other hand, shared they have different interests but they try to influence each other with positive things. “Like I encouraged you to try healthy things. Lagi niya akong pinapakain sa set. Lagi siyang may pinapatikim na pagkain sa akin. We’re OK. We’re friends, like what she said.”
They initially felt a bit of awkwardness before because they didn’t have the chance to share many scenes in the previous series, Wilbert added. But now, they have an easy working relationship and have gotten to know each other better as they headline the series, now streaming on Viva One.
Regardless of their status, the onscreen partners consider each other girlfriend and boyfriend material.
“Yeah, Bea is very caring,” described Wilbert. “She shows her concern for us whenever something happens. She’s motherly in the way she shows care. She’s also a good cook and I love to eat. She’s definitely girlfriend material.”
“I will think about it,” quipped Bea. “Of course, he is (boyfriend material). He takes care of you. He makes sure you’re comfortable.”
Bea and Wilbert star as Avianna “Via” Diaz and Larkin “Arkin” Sanchez in “Golden Scenery of Tomorrow.” They are best friends who have always been inseparable.
According to the media release, Via, an architecture student, is introverted and cautious of the spotlight — scarred by how fame consumed her mother and left their family neglected. Resilient yet conflicted, she shoulders the burden of caring for her siblings while quietly searching for her own purpose in life.
Arkin is a film student who embodies charm, wit and an easygoing nature. Protective and devoted, he has always centered his world around Via. With a passion for storytelling and music, his path unexpectedly leads him into showbiz, where he rises to fame as part of a popular love team.
As Via and Arkin’s friendship deepens into love, their bond is tested when Arkin’s new life in the entertainment industry collides with Via’s fears and insecurities. The glare of the spotlight revives Via’s deepest traumas, while Arkin struggles to balance his career with his devotion to her. Together, they must face the question: is their love strong enough to withstand the pressure of fame and the wounds of the past?
Reprising their respective roles in the series are Heaven Peralejo, Marco Gallo, Krissha Viaje, Jerome Ponce, Hyacinth Callado, Gab Lagman, Aubrey Caraan, Lance Carr, Nicole Omillo and Jairus Aquino.
Meanwhile, Marco was queried if there’s a possibility of him and his former partner, Heaven, getting back together.
“I don’t know what I’ll do tomorrow. So, I don’t know how. Let fate decide. I honestly don’t know. I’m just living life at the moment,” replied Marco, who seemed caught off guard by the question.
