During the promo pictorial for the upcoming Star Cinema romance drama Forever and a Day, Sam Milby admitted that unlike his previous films, he considers it a bigger challenge to work and be paired with someone whom he considers as one of his best friends off-screen. Sam and KC Concepcion immediately hit it off as friends because of their shared love for outdoor activities especially motocross. “Medyo natakot ako nung nalaman ko na may movie kami ni KC. Kasi siyempre minsan mas madali sa iyo kapag kilala ninyo ang isa’t isa ‘di ba? Mas magiging kampante kayo sa isa’t isa. But at the same time it’s still work kaya hindi ko alam kung mahihirapan kami sa pagiging professional kasi minsan mag-jo-joke kami kasi magkakilala na kami.But it’s working out naman,” he said.

The Fil-Am actor admitted he enjoyed shootingForever and a Day because it also took him to different provinces like Bukidnon, Cagayan de Oro, and Lanao del Norte. The 26-year-old heartthrob admitted he and KC also enjoyed doing their own stunts while making the film even though director Cathy Garcia-Molina had given them the choice to have a stunt double. But Sam said that he was able to give KC the much-needed support that enabled her to go through with some of the stunts. “Sa rapids kasi tapos pati sa zipline medyo mataas yung lugar. Pero nagawa niya. No doubles. Okaynaman sa akin yung ganito, na kami talaga yung gumawa. Gusto kong gawin yun eh. I enjoy that, yung mga nakaka-adrenaline rush but si KC hindi ko alam (laughs). Natatawa ako sa kanya nun. Takot na takot siya. Yung obstacle course medyo mataas actually,” he recalled.
 
Although he is still hesitant to divulge any specific details about the film since they are still in the process of wrapping it up, Sam said fans can look forward to another compelling story of two people who are willing to go through a lot of sacrifices just for the sake of love. “When I read the script ang ganda. It’s very nakakaiyak. Kilig din,” he offered. Sam also wouldn’t disclose just how intimate his scenes are with good friend KC. “Abangan niyo na lang (laughs). Pero as of now, actually wala pa kaming na-shu-shoot na kissing scene,” he revealed.
