This is with a vision of bringing the best of the Filipino talent on-cam and off-cam to the world.”

Sta. Maria said, “This collaboration will really bring in opportunities not only to the networks but for the people working in the network, for the people in the industry.”

Yap added, “I’m really proud, honored and excited to be part of this show which is history in the making since this is the first time that two network giants will be working with each other. Of course, I’m also excited to be working with Jodi again and all the other people in the cast.”

“I’m really honored to be part of this project. I can’t wait to give life to my character,” said Joshua Garcia.

Gabbi Garcia said, “It’s my first time doing this kind of role. You’ll see in this series the type of growth and depth my character exhibits.”
