Sunshine Dizon praises cast of upcoming series

 As one of the stars of the upcoming GMA offering Inagaw na Bituin, Sunshine Dizon is confident that the show will be a success once it starts airing.

The actress said that the program will surely have a recall among viewers since the plot is in the league of classic musical dramas like Bituing Walang Ningning and Sana’y Wala Nang Wakas.

“It’s very ‘komiks’ type. Apart from that, the cast is highly competent which includes the likes of Angelika dela Cruz, Marvin Agustin, Angelu de Leon and Gabby Eigenmann. The two junior leads Kyline Alcantara and Therese Malvar are also good,” she said.

“The line-up of performers is formidable and that’s what makes it interesting. Well, admittedly, the story is not new. We’ve seen stories of this kind before but there are exciting twists in here. Like viewers will hear me sing. Ha-ha-ha! You’ve heard it right. We’ll use our true voices and might perform original compositions in the soap,” she added.

Considering the cast and the story, it can very well be fielded in the prime time slot. But for Sunshine, she believes that it doesn’t matter if it’s in prime time or in the afternoon slot since it has been the trend of late that afternoon shows are as grand as those airing on prime time.

It can be remembered that she top-billed the GMA afternoon soap Ika-6 Na Utos, which aired for more than a year because of its consistently high ratings. With Inagaw na Bituin, does she feel it would surpass or at least equal her previous show?

“I don’t like to put myself under pressure. All I can say is that we have a good material. I think that’s a good start.”

Apart from acting, the award-winning actress recently ventured into film production through Sangre Productions, the outfit she put up along with fellow Encantadia stars Iza Calzado, Karylle and Diana Zubiri.

Angel Locsin believes that her latest project The General’s Daughter came at the perfect time. 

“Maybe if this was offered to me two or three years ago, I wouldn’t be able to do it. I felt I couldn’t. In fact, I already submitted my resignation letter then to the management of ABS-CBN because of the fact that I couldn’t do Darna anymore due to my spinal problem. I felt I didn’t want to be part of the business anymore during those times,” she said in a recent interview.

Angel further said that she felt she didn’t deserve the very nice treatment her mother studio was giving her because she couldn’t do her job as a talent. She also felt she was like a huge disappointment. 

“I’m paid but it appears I’m short-changing them. I thought resigning or retiring from the business was the most practical way to treat the problem. I was just thinking of attending to the farm I bought in Bulacan,” she mused.

It’s good her top bosses convinced her to still give it one more chance.

“I’m thankful I listened to their advice. Then, their business units started pitching in projects to me. I realized at that point that if I’ll resign, these are the type of people I’ll miss—supportive and caring individuals,” she ended.
