'Mga Batang Riles' stars turn sentimental, share they'll miss each other as series nears end
"Mga Batang Riles" is nearing its end and its stars Miguel Tanfelix, Kokoy De Santos, Anton Vinzon, Raheel Bhyria, and Bruce Roeland are definitely feeling it.
In Lhar Santiago's report in "24 Oras" Tuesday, the cast members turned sentimental as they shared how much they would miss each other. The stars have been working together for a year, beginning with their acting workshops and action training up to the taping of the series.
"Nalungkot agad po ako nung nalaman kong malapit na magtapos kasi wala lang, parang bumalik sa 'kin 'yung mga memories ng mga nagawa namin from the start," said Miguel.
Kokoy also shared that he is not ready for their bond to end.
"'Di pa ko ready na matapos 'tong ganitong klaseng pagsasama kasi syempre alam ko pagkatapos nito magkikita-kita pa rin pero syempre iba pa rin 'yung samahan neto na nasa set kayo, 'yung mga ganap niyo during, after," he said.
Anton, for his part, said it hurts that the series is ending because he has found his true brothers in Miguel, Kokoy, Raheel, and Bruce.
"Masakit kasi nakasama ko na 'yung mga totoong brothers ko. Mga one year na kami magkasama kaya kahit minsan-minsan na lang kami magkikita andun pa rin 'yung samahan naming magtropa," he said.
Raheel added that he cannot help but think how their days together are becoming less, while Bruce said it has not sunk in yet for him that the series is about to end.
After "Mga Batang Riles" ends, Miguel shared that all the cast members plan to travel out of the country together, although they have yet to book any flights.
For now, the Riles Boys are focused on shooting their action scenes for the last few weeks of the series.
Fans have a lot to look forward to from the characters of Kidlat (Miguel), Kulot (Kokoy), Sig (Raheel), and Dagul (Anton), as well as Matos (Bruce), who is out to seek revenge against them.
"Sobrang intense po nung magiging last two to three weeks ng 'Mga Batang Riles.' Hindi lang 'yung aksyon pati 'yung mga emosyon namin ang tataas na dito dahil patapos na eh," said Miguel.
