Miss Universe Philippines 2020 Winners to be Announced on GMA-7 on October 25

Miss Universe Philippines National Director and Miss Universe 2011 3rd runner-up Shamcey Supsup-Lee announced that the much-anticipated coronation night of the first-ever Miss Universe Philippines will be aired over GMA 7 on October 25. 

“We’re happy to officially announce that Miss Universe Philippines 2020 will be aired this October 25 on GMA!” she said in an interview on 24 Oras. 

Shamcey also said that it will be a "mix of online and actual pageant." The pageant released the Ring Light series - an eight-episode series that brings viewers beyond the preparations for the pageant by featuring the passion, hard work, and the advocacies that each candidate stands for, to spread hope and inspiration to Filipinos especially during these trying times. They used the word ring light in the title since the candidates were given their own ring light and production team to shoot the needed footages for each episode. 

"People would always say that maybe pageants are not essential at this time. We are here to rally initiatives and spread kindness. We are not just glitz and glamour, we are harbingers of hope. But of course marami pa ding mga fun activities like makeup, runway. And eventually, on the finale, you will be able to watch the coronation night of the first ever Miss Universe Philippines." she added.

The Ring Light series is also a fundraising activity of the organization. Portions of the proceeds from the subscription fee will either be donated to a specific organization that the pageant has sponsored or a candidate's chosen beneficiary. 

Fans can check their chosen candidates' Instagram page for the referral code to use in buying their subscription. All episodes will be streamed on Empire.ph.

Who will be the Philippines’ next representative in the Miss Universe competition and maybe follow in the footsteps of former Miss Universe winners Gloria Diaz, Margie Moran, Pia Wurtzbach, and Catriona Gray? 

Catch the coronation night on GMA-7 on October 25.

In “The Comeback Trail”, two movie producers (Robert De Niro and Zach Braff) who owe money to the mob (Morgan Freeman) set up their aging movie star Duke Montana (Tommy Lee Jones) for an insurance scam to try to save themselves. The plan is simple: “accidentally” kill Montana during a stunt and then collect the insurance money. 

The big hitch in the plan, however, is that Montana can’t seem to die. In the trailer alone, the washed-up action star hilariously and impressively makes it out alive after each death-defying stunt. 

Hollywood screen legends and Oscar winners—Robert De Niro, Tommy Lee Jones, and Morgan Freeman lead the star-studded cast for “The Comeback Trail”. Other cast members include Zach Braff (TV’s Scrubs), Emile Hirsch (Once Upon A Time in Hollywood), Eddie Griffin (Undercover Brother), and Kate Katzman (This Is The Year). 

George Gallo directs from a script he wrote with Josh Posner in a remake of Harry Hurwitz’s 1982 film of the same name. 

Coming soon to Philippine cinemas, “The Comeback Trail” is produced by Storyboard Media and distributed by Cloudburst Entertainment in the US and TBA Studios in the Philippines.
