Since they signed up to be a Kapuso, new GMA Artist Center talents Jon Lucas, Ysabel Ortega, Angela Alarcon, Erin Ocampo, Faye Lorenzo, and Anjo Damiles all share a common ground. The five talented stars are excited for their upcoming projects in the Network.
Jon started in the show business with a dream to be a heartthrob. Now, he is no stranger to the limelight as he already established his talent in performing in the past years. He is now making a name for himself after being part of the star-studded cast of GMA's Philippine remake of the hit Korean drama series 'Descendants of the Sun,' as Benjo Tamayo, one of the members of Alpha Team led by the Captain Lucas Manalo aka Big Boss (Dingdong Dantes).
"Nakaka-relate po ako sa character ko kasi bukod sa medyo makulit po siya pag kasama 'yung mga kaibigan niya, hindi rin po niya hahayaang maiwan mag-isa 'yung kasamahan niya," Jon shared about his character. "Ako rin po ganoon sa totoong buhay, kahit anong mangyari, I'll be by your side."
Ysabel, on the other hand, came from a prominent family in the industry. Because of this, she was motivated to take on the legacy and pursue a name of her own. At an early age, she already gained experience through various drama projects. She will bring to life the character of Sabina, a loving and family-oriented girl in the primetime drama 'The Gift.'
She shared, "Excited po akong maging part ng isang teleserye na mag-iinspire sa mga manonood. Marami pong life lessons na mapupulot ang viewers from the show when it comes to life, family, and tiwala sa Diyos."
Angela is a cum laude graduate from the University of the Philippines whose passion has always been performing, inspired by her dad, veteran actor Jestoni Alarcon. An all-too-familiar face on screen, Angela has starred in a couple of short films and music videos when she was still studying. Now, she is ready to pursue a career on TV. She is Chloe in the Kapuso drama-action series 'Beautiful Justice,' the best friend of Brie (Gabbi Garcia), who will stick with her through thick and thin.
"I am looking forward to a strong friendship between Chloe and Brie. The show in general is full of surprises, has a good narrative and is action-packed; portrayed by really talented actors in the industry."
Erin, on the other hand, was 14-years-old when she began her acting career. Nine years later, she still loves what she does. Like Angela, she is also part of the powerhouse cast of 'Beautiful Justice,' where she plays the role of Maica, a strong-willed agent of the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA).
She is looking forward for the audience to watch her upcoming show, "I gave my all to every character I portray, I really focus on the scenes and the scripts. I hope the Kapuso viewers will love my character and support her."
Faye, blessed with abundant curves and radiant skin, is set to be the next exciting sexy Kapuso star. She will be joining the cast of the highly-anticipated GMA Afternoon Prime series 'Madrasta.' She portrays the role of a nurse named Joan, Audrey's (Arra San Agustin) officemate and close friend.
Faye feels blessed to be part of the soap, "Naka-relate ako sa character ni Joan dito kasi kalog na kikay siya, pati masipag and very friendly. Excited ako mapanood ito ng mga tao kasi hindi lang siya drama, may comedy din siya at ang gagaling ng mga artista dito at direktor."
Meanwhile, Anjo is a commercial model turned actor. His face has been the cover of multiple advertisements, even in print. In his previous projects, Anjo has played drama, romance, and fantasy roles. He will also be part of 'Madrasta', where he will play George, Audrey's (Arra San Agustin) ex-boyfriend, who took her for granted.
As a promise to the viewers, Anjo said, "Siguradong-sigurado ako na mapapasaya, mapapaiyak, at mapaparamdam namin ang sakit at hirap ng mga characters namin. Pinaghandaan ko rin ito sa pamamagitan ng series of workshops para mas mahasa ang talent ko."
Catch Jon, Ysabel, Angela, Erin, Faye, and Anjo in their upcoming shows on GMA Network.
