Jennylyn Mercado’s most recent movies—Walang Forever and The Prenup in 2015, and Just the 3 of Us this month with John Lloyd Cruz—have all breached the P100-million mark in the box office. Also in the past two years, she has won back-to-back best actress awards at the 40th and 41st Metro Manila Film Festival for her movies English Only Please with leading man Derek Ramsay, and again, Walang Forever with on-screen partner Jericho Rosales.
