MANILA – Enrique Gil returned to the Philippines from Hong Kong on Sunday to tape their upcoming television series "Bagani" which will air early next year.
“Para siyang bayani. It’s the story about how the Philippines, ‘di ba archipelagic tayo, how the Philippines was born. It’s about our culture,” he said about the series, which will also feature superheroes and super powers.
Dishing more about his character, Gil said: “[Superhero ako] at ang pangalan ko po doon ay si Lakas. Diet diet na lang muna habang walang time mag-work out.”
According to Gil, his co-actors on the show include his regular partner Liza Soberano, Sofia Andres, Dimples Romana, Makisig Morales, Matteo Guidicelli and Albert Martinez among others.
Gil was in Hong Kong to attend a special screening of his movie “Seven Sundays” with the Filipino community in the former British colony.
In an interview with DZMM, Gil said he felt the genuine emotions of those who watched the film with him and the experience made him more proud to be part of the Star Cinema drama.
“Umiyak sila lahat pero lahat naman sila natuwa. Siyempre it’s a different feel kasi bihira lang sila makapanood ng movies natin and to see artists din. It’s a humbling experience to be here,” he said.
“Mararamdaman mo talaga how much they miss home. Iba sila kaysa sa Manila. They are more attached. It’s a very humbling experience. They work so hard here, malayo sa pamilya. Kaya grabe din sila umiyak kasi randam nila 'yung mga eksena,” he added.
Asked of his personal takeaway from the movie, Gil said “Seven Sundays” made him realize that he should put more effort to be closer to his mother.
“Sometimes we take it for granted because we know they are always there. They are not going to be there forever. A little extra work won’t hurt. It will actually be good for you,” he said.
