'My Little Juan' star says he idolizes Coco Martin

Kapamilya child star Izzy Canillo is thrilled over the success of his series on ABS-CBN, "My Little Juan."
 
"Masaya po kasi parang madami na rin kaming naiturong tamang asal sa bata," Canillo told ABS-CBNnews.com on Friday.

"Minsan 'yung mga bata kasi parang ang isip nila ay 'idol ko si Little Juan,' kaya magaling po talaga ang 'LIttle Juan,'" he added.

Canillo said it is a dream come true to be given the role of Little Juan, the younger version of the titular character portrayed by Coco Martin in the top-rating series "Juan dela Cruz."
He said Martin inspires him to do his best for the show, which airs on weekdays after the ABS-CBN noontime program "It's Showtime."

"Idol ko po siya (Martin) at magaling po talaga siya. Turo niya 'yung kailangan laging pa-bibo and focused," he said.

Meanwhile, "Juan dela Cruz" revolution is set to premiere on Monday (July 8) with the introduction of a new character and a new weapon for Juan.
