Iza plays a woman in an incest relationship in “MMK”

CEBU, Philippines - For the third time, highly acclaimed Kapamilya actress Iza Calzado will showcase her remarkable talent once again as she stars in another heavy drama episode of “Maalaala Mo Kaya” tonight. Iza will give life to the character of Rowena, a woman who unexpectedly fell in love with her cousin Alex (Joem Bascon) after being cheated on by her husband. Despite the disapproval of their family and the criticisms of their neighbors, Rowena and Alex continued their relationship and formed their own family with their children. However, Rowena and Alex’s lives changed when they noticed something different with the physical appearance of their two daughters. Is the suffering of their children God’s way of punishing Rowena and Alex for their forbidden love? Or is this just an important test that will strengthen their relationship as a family? Joining Iza and Joem in “MMK” this Saturday are Andrea del Rosario, Celine Lim, Art Acuña, Dianne Medina, Maliksi Morales, Nanding Josef, Veyda Inoval, Kyline Alcantara, Janine Berdin, and Marikit Morales. The story was researched by Alexandra Mae Martin, written by Nikki Bunquin and Arah Jell Badayos, and directed by Nuel Crisostomo Naval. Don’t miss “MMK” today after “Wansapanataym” on ABS-CBN.
