WATCH: John Lloyd Cruz First Endorsement Appearance after 2 Years, Is He Coming Back to the Limelight?
In the past few days, photos
and videos of matinee idol John Lloyd Cruz have been surfacing after being on
hiatus from the showbusiness since 2017.
Cruz, one of the most
bankable actors of the Philippine cinema and very effective endorser once again
proved that his fans are still waiting for his return. In a teaser video, which
lasted only for a few seconds and only shows the back shot of Cruz’s, and
posted in the Facebook page of the number one selling shawarma Turks a few
weeks ago had been viewed 3.2M times, shared almost 800 times and gained a huge
number of comments.
Without any clue in that
teaser video, his fans already assumed that it was him in the video. Actress
Bea Alonzo on her Instagram also posted a screenshot of that teaser video,
which garnered almost a million likes.
This Monday morning
Turks finally revealed in the 1-minute and 17 seconds video of Cruz showing the
actor walking through different destinations, which somehow depicts Cruz’s
sojourn. The video is very simple, yet there’s drama the way it was created,
and in a very subtle shot, he stopped and took a bite of a Turks pita donner.
The rugged look of Cruz
in the Turks video titled Ang Pagbabalik is way too far from his guy-next-door
image and a lot of people in the industry are asking if this signals his return
to the limelight. His fans are still wondering about the life he’s been living
since his hiatus.
According to Turks
president Gem L. Zenarosa that during the course of his talks with Cruz, they
never talked anything about his showbiz career or plans. He added that he got
Mr. Cruz as the latest ambassador of Turks because of his great confidence
working with Cruz.
“I am really grateful that
John Lloyd trusts our company, he is a brilliant and very creative young man.
Aside from acting we have discovered some of his remarkable talents,” Zenarosa
stressed.
The Ang Pagbabalik
according to Zenarosa is actually about Turks Small Pita Doner, which will be
available again in all its branches.
“John Lloyd is the best
endorser for this because like him, despite his absence in the showbusiness for
a couple of years, the warmth and love of his fans for him never dwindles. With
our Small Pita Doner we believe that our customers will be happy to know that
it is back in our menu,” Zenarosa explained.
Just like Cruz who is
seen to have a different image since he last appeared in the big screen, a
clear indication that the actor is recreating himslef and exploring different
grounds, Turks is also doing the same thing to keep its customers excited
whenever they visit a branch.
In time for the
release of Cruz's endorsement video, Turks also released to the market its
newest offering --- Turks Rice Bowl, which is a complete meal. You can choose
beef or chicken for your rice topping, and it is priced at P50. The Small Pita
Donner on the other hand, is priced at P35.
"To keep up with
the demands of our customers, Turks continues to improve our menu and offerings
to satisfy the discriminating taste of our loyal patrons," Zenarosa
stressed.
John Lloyd Cruz now
joins the roster of endorsers of Turks such as Piolo and Inigo Pascual.
