Produced by JG Productions of Rowena Jamaji and Rajan Gidwani, “When I Met You in Tokyo” is a romantic-drama shot in Japan, which also features Cassy Legaspi and Darren Espanto.

The acclaimed actress expressed her immense enthusiasm for this project, highlighting her eagerness since she hasn't worked on a film for six years.

“My last movie was ‘Everything About Her.’ When this movie was offered to me, tinanong ko lang kung ano ang synopsis at kung sinong kasama. When they said si Christopher de Leon, yes agad ang sagot ko,” she said.
