If there were rebel returnees, there are Kapuso returnees, too. And one of them is Empress Schuck. Her career in television started on GMA Network where she appeared in several soap operas, like Munting Anghel (2000) to Etheria (2005) before she hopped over to the Kapamilya lot after her stint in the costume drama on the network along Edsa.
Last year, she decided it was time to go home.
She was a Kapamilya (being under contract with Star Magic) for nearly a decade. She left as a prepubescent girl but returns as full-grown woman of 21.
In Kailan Ba Tama Ang Mali? Schuck plays the woman in between Eigenmann and Collins. Her desire to be the former’s woman causes Collins much misery and sadness.
Shuck said she is intrigued to play this kind of role as she has never been in a similar situation where she finds herself in between people she knows.
Will she settle being a Kapuso? “It depends on the projects or how many projects the network will give me.” Meanwhile, she is in the network as a freelance artist and the series marks her return as Kapuso.
