It was a regular Tuesday afternoon last October 16, 2018, when Director JP Habac dropped the bomb on Twitter that got netizens buzzing with excited and confused tweets, gif images, and film memes.

For fans who still have a happy hangover from the announcement of a sequel, yes, to answer that boggling question in your hearts, the sequel to “I’m Drunk, I love You” is still about Carson and Dio.

Last year, Habac on Twitter teased fans with a shot of the script title page entitled “I Love You, I do,” a sequel to the 2017 film starring Maja Salvador and Paulo Avelino.

Co-written by Kristin Barrameda, the director on Saturday, January 5, on the sidelines of his new film “Sakaling Maging Tayo” confirms that the sequel will still star Maja and Paulo for the same characters.

“It will revolve around the two of them seven years after ‘I’m Drunk, I Love You.’ It’s set in 2022,” Director JP shares in an ABS-CBN report.

In the same report, JP also says that the script is still being finished and they are hoping to release it “soon.”

No other details like plot or the much-anticipated development and status of Carson and Dio’s relationship are bared. However, based on the teasing that the director did to tickle the movie’s fans last year and the title of the sequel, it can be traced to be about tying the knot.

His tweet last year, along with the script photo was captioned, “Magandang araw, mga bata (Good day, kids).” And because that is not yet enough to get people’s hearts rising, he also included hashtags in the form of emoticons – the iconic beer, a broken heart, and a peace sign. The second hashtag included a heart and an engagement or wedding ring.

The said tweet is pinned to the director’s Twitter profile.
