On February 1, actress Bea Alonzo highlighted her role in the Royal Blood-Widows’ Web spin-off series, Widows’ War.
At the media event for the launch of Reno11 Series 5G, which LionhearTV covered, Alonzo hoped that people would love their upcoming series, similar to how Kapuso viewers appreciated Royal Blood and Widows’ Web.
“This will be a spin-off of the well-loved series Royal Blood and Widows’ Web. So, sobrang nakaka-pressure kasi sobrang minahal talaga siya ng manonood. So hopefully this one din.”
She then detailed the cast and director, including Carla Abellana and Manila International Film Festival 2024 Best Director Zig Dulay.
“It’s going to be a murder mystery din, it’s going to be directed by Zig Dulay. Of course, si Carla Abellana ‘yung kasama ko dito at marami pang iba.”
She then expressed her excitement about doing her first murder-mystery series.
“But, I’m very excited because it was the first time I’m exploring this genre on TV or–in anything f[or that matter.] I only did horror, eh? So that’s a different genre. But ito, murder-mystery, so posible isa ako sa mga pumatay.”
Alonzo also revealed her preparations for her role in the upcoming Kapuso spin-off series.
“Of course, I read the script already. And then, nagkaroon na kami ng meeting with Direk Zig. I’m doing my homework. I’m creating character background [and] character graph.
“But I know that kami ni Carla will meet because ‘yung characters namin were supposed to be best friends. Sometimes, you can’t fake history–you can’t fake the dynamics and the rapport. So, I think we’re [going to] do something together before we start.”
She then disclosed the reason why she accepted the project.
“I’m really excited about the script and the concept. Kasi, most of the time, ‘yung mga nagagawa kong story parang may malaking story arc lang, but on this one, maraming plots. Parang plots within the plots. So, I’m very excited na bawat character mayroong– may plot na sinusundan ng tao, hindi lang ‘yung main character.”
As for their latest brand endorsement, Alonzo joins Nadine Lustre in unveiling OPPO Reno11 Series 5G.
Alonzo and Lustre, as brand ambassadors, shot a TV commercial highlighting the camera capabilities of the mobile device and its standout Portrait Expert features.
OPPO Reno11 Series 5G debuts a 32-MP Telephoto Camera, which they used in making the film video for the advertisement.
Available Pearl White and Wave Green, OPPO Reno11 Series 5G launched this February 1.
