He shared how he became confused during a scene when the director appeared upset with him despite not doing anything wrong, only to discover that it was all part of a surprise birthday celebration complete with a cake. Beyond the prank, PJ added that he always looked forward to going to work, especially to bond and chat with <strong>Kim Chiu</strong>.</p><p><strong>Kim Tobiano</strong>, who first rose to prominence through It’s Showtime’s “Girl on Fire,” described the project as a meaningful learning experience. As it was her first acting role, she expressed deep gratitude for being welcomed into the ensemble and for the opportunity to grow alongside her co-stars.</p><p>Similarly,<strong> Angelina Cruz</strong> shared that the series marked her first time appearing in a television drama. One of her favorite memories was filming at the iconic Temple of Leah, which she described as a special experience.</p><p>Her on-screen partner, <strong>Robbie Jaworski</strong>, reflected on the unexpected earthquake they experienced during production. Like Angelina, it was also his first television series, and he described it as discovering “the true and major passion of storytelling.” He spoke about witnessing “a congregation of people coming together for one goal,” and seeing the beauty in that collaboration.</p><div><br/></div><div style="text-align:center"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1771443467108637067653_1350411120450064_6663972950742697457_n.jpg" style="width:960px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" width="960"/></div><div><br/></div><div style="text-align:center"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1771443634328633529451_1350412473783262_7145164402652970246_n.jpg" style="width:960px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" width="960"/></div><div style="text-align:center"><br/></div><div style="text-align:center"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1771443655266633941556_1350413273783182_8893564923795148043_n.jpg" style="width:960px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" width="960"/></div><div><br/></div><p><strong>Thou Reyes</strong> echoed the sentiment about the earthquake being unforgettable. While the incident was frightening, something heartwarming emerged from it—the cast and crew were able to gather as one family afterward, spending time together in ways they rarely could due to their different shooting schedules. Their lock-in taping in Cebu ultimately brought them even closer.</p><p>For <strong>Rafael Rosell</strong>, the earthquake was also a core memory from the shoot. Beyond that, he expressed gratitude for finally working alongside Sam Milby,<strong></strong> joking that people often mistake them for one another. “Finally, <em>nagsama na kami ni </em>Sam<em> sa telebisyon para malaman ng ibang tao na magkaiba kaming tao</em>,” he joked. He also fondly teased about a scene where <strong>John Arcilla </strong>repeatedly tapped the back of his head, humorously reminding him of childhood memories.</p><div><br/></div><div style="text-align:center"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1771443893930635023634_1350459823778527_6406545527966865745_n.jpg" style="width:960px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" width="960"/></div><div><br/></div><p><strong>Sofia Andres</strong> became emotional as she recalled a three-hour taping at the Temple of Leah with Kim Chiu. She praised Kim for being patient, supportive, and down-to-earth throughout the scene. “<em>Nahihiya ako sa kanya kasi parang nawala lahat ng</em> experience <em>ko.</em> It humbles you <em>talaga</em>,” she shared, emphasizing how Kim stayed by her side the entire time.</p><p><strong>Sam Milby </strong>noted that he particularly enjoyed the challenging scenes, as they strengthened his appreciation for his co-actors and the hardworking staff and crew behind the camera. He also shared a story about Kim’s kindness during a shoot in an underprivileged area, where she quietly assisted residents in appreciation of their cooperation.</p><div><br/></div><div style="text-align:center"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1771444126179636731196_1350415907116252_8192727295070552337_n.jpg" style="width:960px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" width="960"/></div><div style="text-align:center"><br/></div><div><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1771444096928633448384_1350416530449523_6812931164165913788_n.jpg" style="width:960px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" width="960"/></div><div><br/></div><p><strong></strong>Kim Chiu <strong></strong>clarified that it was simply her way of thanking the community for accommodating the production. “Very pleasant <em>kasi ang mga tao roon.</em> Support <em>talaga sila</em>. <em>Hindi mo na hihingin na tumahimik sila.</em> <em>Hindi mo na hihingin ‘yung suporta nila</em>,” she said. Since the shoot took place in her hometown and involved working with fellow Visayans, she added, “It feels like home… <em>parang kapatid ko silang laha</em><em>t</em>.”</p><p>For Paulo Avelino, the earthquake was likewise unforgettable. However, what he treasures most is witnessing the dedication of the staff and crew from start to finish. “<em>Ang kulay ng buhay lalo na kapag nagshu</em>-shoot <em>kayo</em>. <em>Ang kulay ng lahat ng nasa paligid at isa ’yon sa mga tine</em>-treasure <em>ko</em>,” he reflected, underscoring his admiration for the people who work tirelessly behind the scenes.</p><div><br/></div><div><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1771444393891632536845_1350420367115806_299213194159063354_n.jpg" style="width:960px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" width="960"/></div><div><br/></div><div style="text-align:center"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1771444414870637445448_1350419887115854_44299463479321410_n.jpg" style="width:960px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" width="960"/></div><div><br/></div><p>With added scenes and heartfelt stories from its cast,<strong><em> The Alibi: Ang Buong Katotohanan</em></strong> promises a deeper, more compelling experience as it transitions from streaming to free television this March.</p><div><br/></div><p>Photos from <strong>@starmagicphils</strong></p>
