In the series, Kazel Kinouchi portrays Zoey Tanyag, one of the antagonists in the life of Jillian Ward’s character, Analyn Santos. The show features intense cat-fight scenes, but the actresses assure their real-life relationship is amicable and professional.
During a Fast Talk segment with Boy Abunda, Kazel discussed how they prepare for their intense scenes and what unfolds once the cameras stop rolling.
She mentioned that Jillian Ward is incredibly supportive during their fight scenes, often encouraging Kazel to give her best performance. If the director identifies any shortcomings in their acting, Jillian promptly suggests they redo the scene and stands by Kazel throughout the process.
