Enchong Dee and Janine Gutierrez team up for a movie that brings a true-to-life comedy drama in the movie ELISE. This is Regal entertainment's opening salvo for the year 2019.

ELISE is Enchong Dee and Janine Gutierrez's reunion in the big screen after their previous movie in 2016 entitled Lia.


This time, Enchong, a Kapamilya star, and Janine, a Kapuso star, pair up for a movie that tackles about finding your soulmate and seeking your purpose in life.

What is special about this movie is that it is based on real life events, which was revealed by director Joel Ferrer.

"It's a biopic romantic comedy that depicts events in the life of Bert (played by Enchong), who is quick-witted but sickly emotional and independent guy, who falls for Elise (played by Janine), who is a strong tough, independent woman."

Early on since childhood, Bert developed feelings for Elise. But puppy love is not yet something that should be taken seriously.

Later on, they get separated to pursue education, chase their dreams for a bright future. In short, both of them move on with their lives.

But years after, their paths cross and old feelings get rekindled. Unfortunately, their situation is different now, they are not young kids anymore and love is not a children's game.

New struggles arise when their situations and people around them do not work in their favor.

Are they willing to beat the odds to be finally together?

Direk Joel clarifies that ELISE is not just a love story.

"It's a long journey from start to finish. This is a story of finding your purpose in life. We start from naging sila na bata, ganyan."

"It talks about love, moving on, loving again, chasing, and finidng your dream , and your values."

Janine explained, "ELISE is a lifelong love story about these people na parang their whole lives parang nag-i-intertwine ang mga buhay nila. Ang tanong ay magkakatuluyan ba ang first love nila o hindi."

For his part, Enchong points out that the fact that this happened in real lfie makes it a movie worth watching.

"Nangyari siya sa tunay na buhay. it's a biopic. ang hirap kasi minsan tatanungin ng tao, 'Posible ba 'to? nangyayari ba talaga ito?' The fact taht it's a love story na coming from a person na specially close to Direk, I think yun yung part na maganda kasi may pinagkukuhaan kami ng tunay na kwento."

Movies like this touches me very much because first I'm a woman and knowing that things like this could happen. From the serial comics written by Carlo J. Caparas and a film directed by the National Artist for Film, Lino Brocka, Oro De Siete Films Production, Inc and Viva Films produces the movie,  Angela Markado. Through the eyes of its writer Carlos J. Caparas directs this year's remake of the film with Andi Eigenmann plays the role of Angela's character. Together with the great casts like Epi Quizon, Paolo Contis, Felix Rocco, Polo Ravales, CJ Caparas, Mika Dela Cruz, Isabelle Peach, Bugoy Carino, Buboy Villar, Anna Roces, Marita Zobel, Bembol Rocco and Bret Jackson.


The film is about the story of Angela who was forced to work as a waitress in one of the classy bars in Manila when her mother suffered stroke and so she could continue her school as well as her siblings Imee and Jmmy. During her work at the bar she meets five patrons of the bar, who turn out to be her rapists led by Leo, a rancher; Tory, a drug dealer; Garrix, a drug courrier Jack, a drug user; and Bren, a tattoo artist. She was later on kidnapped, raped, tortured and beaten by the five men and worse they tattooed their names on Angela's back. She was able to escaped with the help of Sabel but what happened to her mother and boyfriend made her have a life's mission to kill the five men with their own brand of brutality by wearing wigs and costumes, and stalking the men with a handy switchblade.

I have been watching teleseryes when I'm at home and I have seen how Andi Eigenmann play the roles of the characters. She's indeed a controversial hit maker and made a remarkable portrayal of the characters she played. According to Director Carlo J. Caparas Andi's acting prowess will make the Angela Markado he imagine will come alive in this movie remake. A vengeful victim unmerciful and most brutal woman.

This movie genre is going to be a big mark for Andi not only that the movie is a multi-awarded movie by Lino Brocka but it is also from the renowned multi-awarded filmmaker Carlo J. Caparas. According to Andi "I believe in the project, a byword and multi-awarded movie by Lino Brocka, and now, to be handled by another mulit-awarded filmmaker Carlo J. Caparas... this is really a big one for me ! A different kind of drama-thriller-shocker movie... a dream role and project... hindi ko po pakakawalan at sasayangin ito... matagal kong hinintay ang role na ito... it's worth the wait!"

For mommies and fans of Andi Eigenmann here's a chance to see her on a different kind of role that will surely give you mix emotions with the character Angela. Is she a criminal to be convicted or a victim to be symphatized? Watch the movie on December 2, 2015 know what happens at the end of the movie.

For a mom who's always on the look for what's new and what's trending, here's something that will surely let every one get their butts pinned on the couch with their unusual TV Series.  Yes, TV5 will be having a series that is breaking boundaries of Philippine television. 

The highly-anticipated TV5 series, ‘Jasmine’, is ready to give audiences an exciting new way to enjoy TV. It premieres on Sunday, June 1, at 9:15PM.

Breaking away from the traditional romance/drama genre, ‘Jasmine’ is a show full of mystery and suspense that blurs the lines between reality and fiction. It stars Jasmine Curtis Smith, who plays a fictional version of herself: an indie actress who is on the verge of becoming a mainstream celebrity. She faces the usual challenges in the show biz industry: failed relationships, rivalries, the pressure to win awards, and unsuccessful auditions. Amidst all this, Jasmine begins to receive mysterious messages from Maskara, an obsessed fan who is willing to do anything to make her happy—even if it means hurting everyone around her.
A creation of award-winning advertising agency Ace Saatchi & Saatchi, in partnership with Unitel and TV5, ‘Jasmine’ brings the story to life 24/7 by also making its characters exist online—and in person.

One example is how supporting character Wendell Bautista, a famous entertainment blogger and friend of Jasmine’s on the show, has an actual blog, Facebook Page, and Twitter and Instagram accounts—all of which are regularly updated. Wendell has even appeared in blogger and fan events to support Jasmine’s endeavors.

Honesty is very important, especially in our daily lives.  We should train our kids to portray honesty all time.

Raikko Mateo is the newest child wonder of ABS CBN, he's so cute and consistently saying that he just want to see his self on TV, that's why he wants to be a child actor.
According to Direk Jerry Lopez Sineneng, Raikko went through an audition and one of the trait made them choose the kids is because of his eyes.  The eyes is very important for this drama series because as a kid it reflects the sincerity and honesty innate in him.

It is topbilled by award winning and seasoned actors such as  Paulo, Eddie Garcia, Janice de Belen, Angel Aquino, Nonie Buencamino, Joel Torre, Melissa Ricks, Joseph Marco and introducing ABS-CBN's newest Kapamilya child star Raikko.
