Kapuso Princess Kris Bernal will stay on GMA Network.
She will be leading the cast of GMA Network’s retelling of “Impostora,” originally starred by Iza Calzado and Sunshine Dizon in 2007.
“Impostora” is about the intertwined lives and loves of conjoined twins but their parents agree to have them separated at the age of eight. The twins’ separation brings about a string of misfortunes that leaves their mother no choice but to put them up for adoption. Lara will be accepted by Betty, the wife of Henry’s brother Delfin, to live with them as playmate of her spoiled, mean daughter Nessa. But Lara will soon run away because she can no longer tolerate the cruelty and abuse of Betty and Nessa. A kind-hearted person, however, will find and keep Lara, who grows up to become a beautiful lady.
Sara, on the other hand, will be adopted by her aunt Gemma. Unfortunately, Sara’s presence in her relative’s household remains unacceptable, which even leads Gemma’s husband to distort and ruin her face. In spite of being unwanted, Sara stays in the house and grows up with a hideously distorted face. Lara vows to find her twin sister but to no avail. Unknown to Lara, her twin sister is hiding from the authorities after she accidentally injured and damaged a woman’s face. Fate eventually leads Sara to meet Leandro, a plastic surgeon who is willing to help restore her beautiful face. With her goal to evade the authorities and the desire to have a pretty face, Sara agrees to undergo plastic surgery.
But instead of seeing her reflection after the operation, Sara is surprised to find herself with someone else’s face! Sara is even stunned to find the woman who owns the face running away with the plastic surgeon. She tries to run after the couple but Nicholas suddenly arrives and calls her by the name Nessa! Sara is able to escape from the police but will she be able to evade her ill-fated situation? Will she choose to live and pretend as somebody else or will she insist on regaining her true identity? What if Sara is destined to cross paths with her twin sister Lara? Will the blood that binds them help her twin sister recognize Sara’s real identity? Or will Lara finally take her sweet revenge for her family but with the wrong Nessa?
“Impostora” could be GMA Network’s biggest drama offering for the first quarter since its original series made waves in television ten years ago.
