MANILA — Showbiz neophytes Raven Rigor and Sean Tristan are off to a flying start, with magazine covers to their names after their breakthrough roles on the iWantTFC series “Beach Bros.”

On Tuesday, Rigor and Tristan were unveiled as the cover stars of pop culture publication PARCINQ’s “Fresh” issue. Actors dubbed “new to the line”, the two have been touted as some of the most promising of their generation.

Individually, they are both promising actors. Together they are much stronger. Breaking the Internet for their roles in #BeachBros, @seantristan_ and @kimchiraven give us a much-needed hook to encourage them.

In addition to their joint debut on PARCINQ, the two also posed for solo versions of the issue’s cover.

Rigor and Tristan, both 20, both became social media darlings in July with their portrayals of pals-turned-lovers Pete and Jeremy in ‘Beach Bros,’ a coming-of-age series that follows five teenagers as they meet new arrivals at their remote seaside resort.

The six-part title, directed by Victor Villanueva, is still streaming on iWantTFC.
