Joining Richard in this new endeavor from the Kapuso network is Heart Evangelista, one of GMA’s newest additions to its roster of stars. Says the grateful Heart, “I’m very, very flattered [to be part of the show.] Thank you for giving me a chance with this wonderful project [where I’m] getting to work with great actors and actresses.”
“Lahat ng naipon kong passion, ilalabas ko dito,” the actress promises before ending with: “God bless this show.”
Also joining the show are Richard Gomez, who also expresses his excitement for working with a new team and some old faces, Janno Gibbs, Michael V., Caridad Sanchez and Ramon Christopher. Ehra Madrigal, Bubbles Paraiso, Rhian Ramos, Elvis Gutierrez, Rocky Gutierrez and Paolo Contis round off the cast.
“Napakalaki ng cast, nakakalula!” Supervising Producer Lilybeth Rasonable happily says. “Pero napakaganda, sobrang exciting.”
She also reveals that Codename: Asero is Richard Gutierrez’s baby, “since conception, talagang involved na siya dito. [And] we’re very happy.” The young Richard will also serve as a stunt director for the show. Program Unit Manager (PUM) Redgie Magno announces that “GMA is so excited with this project.” But she also warns the production team to spread out the budget, and “not just focus on the pilot.“I’m challenging my two directors here. I’m challenging my creative team.”
