Former ‘Pinoy Big Brother: Celebrity Collab Edition’ housemate Shuvee Etrata is stepping into one of her biggest projects yet as she stars alongside Dingdong Dantes and Max Collins in GMA Network’s upcoming action-drama series ‘Master Cutter’.

Shuvee will portray Tonet Mendoza, a shoe keeper who secretly harbors feelings for Anthony (Dingdong), a former scout ranger turned low-key tailor who lives a double life as an elite hunter or man tracker. While Max Collins will play Anthony’s main love interest, Tonet’s quiet admiration for him will add depth and complexity to the story.
In an interview during the show’s story conference, Shuvee admitted she was overwhelmed upon learning about her role.
“Hindi ko po sukat na akalain kasi nga po sabi ko, of course I wanna hone my skills into acting. I know there’s like busy schedules now with brands, endorsements,” she said.
“Pero with acting kasi it’s part of me na gusto ko patunayan na lang ‘yung sarili ko na kaya ko. So sabi ko sa management, I’m willing to do anything kahit na anong ibigay nila sa akin. Kasi alam ko hindi nila ako bibigyan ng something na hindi ko kaya,” she added.

Initially, she expected only a minor part but was surprised to be cast as one of the lead characters.
“As long as I’m with Kuya Dong, it’s already a privilege, it’s already an honor. Rest assured, of course, now that they’ve given me this chance, I’m gonna do my best to help and improve and actually make the most out of it,” Shuvee shared.
The series, helmed by Dominic Zapata, will also feature Charlie Fleming, Sienna Stevens, Jo Berry, and Paolo Contis.
Apart from ‘The Master Cutter’, Shuvee currently appears in ‘Encantadia Chronicles: Sang’gre’ as Veshdita, a Mine-a-ve warrior. She and her fellow ‘PBB Celebrity Collab Edition’ housemates also reunited earlier this year for ‘The Big ColLove’ concert at the Smart Araneta Coliseum.
