Kapamilya star Jericho Rosales is set to headline Sellblock, an international prison action series from ABS-CBN International’s production and co-production division, BlackOps Studios Asia, Psyops8, Story Arch Pictures and Agog Film Productions.

“It’s always very exciting to do new things, especially groundbreaking projects, and I felt that Sellblock is one of those,” said Rosales. “It was presented to me at the time when I was looking for projects with more grit, projects that would push me, motivate me to try out new things, out-of-the-box stuff, even character roles.”

“Working on this kind of project would push me to prepare in ways that I haven’t done before, so I kind of love that fresh experience,” Rosales added. “There’s a little nervousness on my part, and when I get nervous about something, it means that it’s a good thing.

“My dream has always been to work with the best in the world. The best actors, best directors, best people in production, best scripts, the best locations. Who doesn’t want that, right? When an opportunity like this comes, you don’t sleep on it. You respond right away. When it was presented to me, I really liked it. Unfortunately, Covid-19 happened, but I’m really glad that Sellblock is back. And I hope this opportunity will open new doors in the international scene, not just for me, but for all the great Filipino talent behind this project.”

Rosales will be joined in Sellblock by Tirso Cruz III, Cherry Pie Picache, Ronnie Lazaro, Rosanna Roces, Mon Confiado, RK Bagatsing and Pepe Herrera.

Rosales added, “I’m excited that ABS-CBN is focusing on international projects and bringing talents, helping them get discovered and be seen not just in the Philippines but all over the world.”
