A Filipino actor and model who earned his first film credit in Sundalong Kanin (Rice Soldiers) at just 14, this young hottie slowly made a name for himself on the film festival circuit with his star-making performances in Edward, Kalel 15, and He Who Is Without Sin. He appeared on television in Past, Present, Perfect? (2019), Unconditional (2020), and Paano ang Pasko? (2020-2021) but his most notable role is that of young Cairo Lazaro in Gameboys. A web series that was picked up by Netflix and then made into a feature film in 2022, Gameboys tells the story of Cairo and Gavreel (Kokoy De Santos), two gamers who meet and fall in love online, but when the two finally meet, their romantic getaway is threatened by family drama, distance, and the ongoing pandemic. Elijah and Kokoy’s Cairo and Gavreel do plenty of shirtless making out before consummating their relationship - though the emphasis is more on the intimacy than the skin-timacy. Let’s hope this franchise continues so this winner of CNN Philippines Actor of the year 2020 gets to show us even more sexy skin!
