BEA ALONZO
WITH Bea Alonzo’s comeback to primetime teleserye, the Kapamilya actress promises a different take on a mistress story.
In a Star Cinema news article, Alonzo revealed that she will play the role of the second wife of Ian Veneracion while Iza Calzado will portray the role of the first wife.
“Kung paano ie-execute ni Direk Jerry (Sineneng) mas real, more than daring. Hindi siya campy. I guess kung totoo naman ‘yung pag-uusapan, totoo ‘yung pag-e-execute, siguro open na rin ‘yung minds ng audience right now,” she explained.
In an interview during the teleserye’s story conference, Alonzo could not hide her excitement on the new role she will be playing as well as working for the first time with the cast.
Veneracion, who starred in the remake of “Pangako Sa’Yo” last year and the upcoming film “The Achy Breaky Hearts,” is also excited since he has always wanted to work with Alonzo.
“Tired but happy. Excited! I’ve always been saying before na gusto kong makatrabaho si Bea and now it’s happening. Kami ni Iza matagal na kaming magkatrabaho,” he said.
Alonzo shared that some parts of the story will be filmed outside the country.
She also promised that “campy scenes” will be different this time, not the usual ones seen on TV.
On the other hand, Iza agreed by saying, “ ‘Yun ang gusto sanang gawin ng ‘The Second Wife,’ na magpakita ng conflict without having to be very physical about it.
“There can be tension in scenes but without having to have na parang sabunutan or kaya sampalan lagi. Pero tingnan natin kung saan tayo dadalhin ng storyang ‘to.”
“Pero definitely I think both characters are very mature beings and parehong subtle at hindi campy talaga. ‘Yun ang gusto talagang ma-achieve ng soap.”
“The Second Wife” will also feature Enchong Dee, Julia Barretto, Vin Abrenica, Hannah Vito, JK Labajo, Irma Adlawan, and Tirso Cruz III. This will be directed by Jerry Sineneng.
