TV5’s “PS I Love You” is a sequel to the original ‘80s movie topbilled by Gabby Concepcion, who plays the role of Mark, and Sharon Cuneta, who plays the role of Kristine. The role of Kristine in the new TV series, however, is played by Dina Bonnevie.
The new series takes off from Mark and Kristine’s supposed wedding, where the latter does not show up. Mark finds out later that Kristine accepted the marriage proposal of a wealthy businessman.
Mark tries to move on from his sad fate and works his way to become a billionaire investment banker. Kristine, on the other hand, is happily married with two kids, but her picture-perfect life crumbles upon the death of her husband.
“P.S. I Love You” is not the first project to star Gabby and Dina together. They were first featured in the ‘80’s movie “Katorse,” which remake was produced by ABS-CBN.
“No'ng tinanong sa akin ng Viva if I wanted to work with Dina, I said, ‘yeah, great!' I really thought na gagawin namin na sequel is “Katorse” (pero “P.S. I Love You” pala),’” Gabby exclaimed at the press conference of “P.S. I Love You” held at the Renaissance Hotel in Ortigas.
Completing the cast of “P.S. I Love You” are AJ Muhlach, Nadine Lustre, Candy Pangilinan, Cheska Inigo, Michael Flores, Say Alonzo, Jaycee Parker, Melissa Mendez, Nikki Bacolod, Al Chris Galura, Sarah Polvereni, and Cogie Domingo, with the special participation of Lloyd Samartino.
Directed by Robert Quebral and Elaine Lozano, “P.S. I Love You” is co-produced by TV5 and Viva TV. It airs Monday to Friday after “Glamorosa” starting November 21 on TV5.
