Parang totoong mambabarang!
Wow, Salve A., let’s welcome anew Maricel Soriano, who seems eager na maging muling busy sa showbiz where she earned the title ‘Diamond Star’.
After all, most everyone will agree she was the reason why The General’s Daughter proved a must watch series ng mga nakaraang buwan, bukod of course kina Angel Locsin, Tirso Cruz III at Albert Martinez.
She was not just effective but simply amazing in her role as mom to an autistic son, played by Arjo Atayde.
Of Arjo, he admits na malaking tulong si Maricel kung bakit somehow ay gumaling siya as an actor, which he will prove, he said, in the part two of IWant series ng Bagman.
Maricel is back on the big screen this time, via Regal Entertainment, Inc.’s The Heiress, kung saan she’s playing a role of mambabarang.
Ang mambabarang ay isang Filipino folklore, as explained by The Heiress director, Frasco Mortiz, ay isang powerful dark spirit that can dictate to its victims kung ano man ang ipagawa niya rito, including the death of a person.
Inamin ni Direk Frasco na very powerful daw si Maricel in portraying her role, so much so, hindi lang siya ang naho-horrify tuwing may kinukunang eksenang nakakatakot si Maricel. Pati na rin ang co-stars nito na sina Sunshine Cruz, Janella Salvador at McCoy de Leon.
May special participation din si Jane de Leon, who has been chosen by Star Cinema to play Darna.
Of Direk Frasco, hindi lang ang The Heiress ang una niyang pelikula na idinirek.
Many will remember him as the director of the exceptional horror movie, Pagpag: Siyam Na Buhay, kung saan isa itong blockbuster sa Metro Manila Film Festival (MMFF) 2013.
No need to remind you either that he doubles in comedy, too. Siya rin ang nagdidirek ngayon ng gag show na Banana Sundae. Isa rin siya sa mga naging direktor ng now defunct gag program na Goin’ Bulilit.
Of showbiz royalty born, Direk Frasco is the son of top TV director/ producer, and once upon a time, a movie idol Edgar Mortiz.
His Mom, Milette Santos is the younger sister ng mga showbiz topgun na sina Charo Santos-Concio at Malou Santos.
Arjo gustong isunod kay Carlo si Jericho
Bukod kay Carlo Aquino na kanyang makakatrabaho ngayon, gustung-gusto rin daw ni Arjo na makatrabaho si Jericho Rosales.
Napanood daw niya halos lahat ng mga ginawang movies at TV shows nito. including Halik, na last TV series ni Jericho.
Of Carlo, he plays a hitman sa Bagman, at ito raw ang unang beses na gaganap siya sa ganung role.
Excited daw siya, since may action scenes siya na ‘di pa raw niya nagagawa sa previous movies niya.
Of Arjo, may mga action scenes na siya sa unang episode ng Bagman pero hindi gaanong pisikilan, unlike raw ngayon sa eksena nila ni Carlo.
Kung sa unang episode raw ay may boss siya played by Raymond Bagatsing, sa pangalawang episode daw ay governor na siya.
An eight part series, this new Bagman is written and directed by Shugo Praico, and produced by Dreamscape Entertainment and Rein Productions.
Also in the cast are Romnick Sarmenta, Irma Adlawan, Rez Cortez at Rosanna Roces.
Rosanna walang pahinga
Speaking of Rosanna, isa siya ngayon sa mga busy na artista at walang pahinga.
Aba, ‘di pa man niya noon natatapos ang Los Bastardos kung saan kasama niya sina Ronaldo Valdez, Jake Cuenca, Gloria Diaz at Joseph Marco, no less, nai-offer na sa kanya ang role bilang nanay ni JM de Guzman sa seryeng Pamilya Ko nina Joey Marquez at Sylvia Sanchez.
Pagsasabayin niya raw ang taping ng Bagman at Pamilya Ko ngayon.
In her time, as Seiko Films most important contract talent, (Circa 1994 to 1996), she was considered as local showbiz’s sexiest actress.
No, wonder, wala siyang inhibition na ipakita ang kanyang kabuuan sa big screen, lalo na she was flawless din naman.
May dalawang anak si Rosanna, sina Grace at Onyok.
Formerly married to Tito Molina (1993-2004), Rosanna has for her partner since 2016 Blessy Arias.
