Joshua Garcia and Julia Barretto take on the roles of Apollo and Luna in Cathy Garcia-Sampana’s sweeping romantic drama about love, timing, choices, and destiny.
Joshua Garcia and Julia Barretto are back together on the big screen as the beloved JoshLia tandem in Always Yours, Never Mine, a sweeping romantic drama that asks a difficult question: What happens when two people keep finding each other, but life keeps leading them in different directions?
Directed by blockbuster filmmaker Cathy Garcia-Sampana and written by Vanessa R. Valdez, the Star Cinema and ABS-CBN Studios production follows Apollo, played by Joshua, and Luna, portrayed by Julia, whose lives repeatedly intersect across three decades. Each reunion brings them to another crossroads, where the choices they make shape not only their relationship but also the lives they ultimately choose for themselves.
The film's trailer offers a glimpse into the complicated journey of Apollo and Luna, showing the two characters meeting in different stages and circumstances of their lives. Their connection remains, but so do the obstacles that keep them from simply choosing each other.
Rather than telling a conventional love story, Always Yours, Never Mine explores how relationships evolve as people themselves change. The film moves through different versions of Apollo and Luna, allowing audiences to see how their hopes, decisions, relationships, and circumstances influence the kind of lives they build.
The JoshLia reunion is also surrounded by an ensemble cast that includes Bianca Umali, Chanda Romero, Joy Barcoma, Bob Jbeili, Karen Reyes, Migs Almendras, Paulo Angeles, Ina Raymundo, Franco Laurel, Reign Parani, and Jan Silverio.
More than a reunion vehicle for JoshLia, Always Yours, Never Mine puts love under the microscope, exploring whether two people who are meant to cross paths are necessarily meant to end up together.
At a time when romantic films often focus on the thrill of finally getting together, the movie takes a different route. It explores the possibility that love can remain significant even when circumstances, choices, and the passage of time lead people toward different futures.
Always Yours, Never Mine opened in Philippine cinemas on September 30, 2026. The film is also rolling out internationally, with screenings scheduled in the Middle East, Australia, New Zealand, North America, the United Kingdom, Austria, Spain, France, and Italy.
Sometimes, the hardest love story isn't about finding someone. It's about finding them again and again—and discovering that loving them doesn't always mean keeping them.
