On December 21, artist Kim Molina recounted working with Empoy Marquez in ‘FPJ’s Ang Probinsyano.’
At the media conference for ‘My Zombabe,’ which LionhearTV covered, Molina considered herself a fan of Marquez, citing their experience working in the Kapamilya action series.
“Ako po, masaya na naging fan ako ni Empoy, at tsaka dagdag ko lang po na, tama ‘yung sinabi niya na supposedly niyan, pareho po kaming nasa Probinsyano.”
She then recounted how they were supposed to be an on-screen pairing in FPJ’s Ang Probinsyano before the pandemic.
“Pareho kaming nasa Ang Probinsyano, so ‘yung track po ‘yung characters namin, parang kaming ‘yung ila-love team, tapos pumasok din si Je, so parang love triangle siya supposedly, tapos nag-pandemic. So nagbago na po, biglang pumunta sila sa rancho ayun, nagbago na po ‘yung story nun. Pero ‘yun po supposedly ang mangyayari.”
She then highlighted Coco Martin’s collaborative work ethic with his actors in the series.
“And we we’re very excited na ‘yung time na ‘yun ng Ang Probinsyano days pa lang. Ang dami na naming iniisip ni Empoy na naalala ko, na nagsho-shoot kami ng Ang Probinsyano, ang tagal na rin noon.
“Kasi si Kuya Coco naman, he’s very collaborative, hinayaan niya kami sa comedy, hanggang sa hindi siya natuloy.”
She then noted her excitement working with Marquez again in Viva Film’s 2024 opening salvo.
“Noong nalaman ko po na I’m going to be doing this project with Empoy, I was very excited kung ano pa ‘yung pwede natin magawa. Kasi nga napagusapan na namin beforehand so ayun po excited.”
As for his upcoming movie, ‘My Zombabe’ is Viva Film’s opening salvo for 2024 stars Empoy Marquez and Kim Molina with Yanyan De Jesus, Anjo Yllana, Andrea del Rosario, Gary Lim, Andrew Muhlach, Billy Villeta, Liz Alindogan, Shirley Fuentes, Marnie Lapus, and Mark Grabador.
