Ariel Rivera, Sid Lucero, and Beauty Gonzalez uncover the truth in Afternoon Prime series ‘The Fake Life’
Ariel Rivera |
Such is the premise of GMA Entertainment Group’s latest Afternoon Prime offering, The Fake Life.
The upcoming series stars the Kapuso comeback of seasoned actor Ariel Rivera, award-winning actor Sid Lucero and multitalented actress Beauty Gonzalez.
With much enthusiasm, Ariel shares that he is open for more acting roles in the Kapuso Network, “I love GMA, I’ve always loved GMA. I have so many friends here. I hope we have future plans. I like how the atmosphere is here in GMA–how the staff are, the people we work with,…I am very happy to be here.”
For Beauty, there is nothing but gratefulness to the Network for entrusting her the role and pairing her alongside acclaimed actors, “I feel like I’m floating in the sky. I’m so thankful with GMA na binibigyan talaga nila ako ng magagandang story. I’m blessed kasi as an actor, gusto mo ‘yong gano’n eh. Iba-iba ang makikita ng tao sayo and I’m happy to do it. Whatever role na binigay sayo, makaka-relate sila.”
Meanwhile, Sid admits to feeling challenged as the story’s antagonist but enjoys his role nevertheless. “‘Yung usual emotional requirement for a protagonist is very heavy and demanding,” he said. “Tapos siyempre meron din tayong certain lines na hindi natin ma-i-cross because when you do that, it kind of disturbs the idea of a protagonist. That’s why I find it more fun to play bad guys kasi wala akong walls. I can do whatever I want.”
The story begins with childhood friends, Onats (Ariel) and Cindy (Beauty). Despite being inseparable as children, Onats had to leave and fend for himself when his abusive father finally became too much to handle. He eventually found a job in a honey stall at a market and continued to pursue his studies.
Years later, he crosses paths with Cindy again and meets her then boyfriend, Mark (Sid). Onats never liked Mark for her and proved his point when the latter left Cindy. The two friends kindled a new flame, got married, and had two children.
Much later in life, Onats and Cindy have built a good life for their new family. But the past was never truly forgotten; Mark returns and puts a strain on their perfect relationship. Secrets are brought to the surface, lies become exposed, and Onats finds himself living a fake life.
The thrilling series also stars Ms Tetchie Agbayani as Sonya De Guzman, the kind honey vendor who takes in Onats after running away from home; Rina Reyes as Jean Luna, Peter’s mother with a secret agenda; Faye Lorenzo as Jai, Cindy’s cousin who is very close to her; Jenny Miller as Margaux Nova, a former classmate of Onats who is now a successful doctor; Saviour Ramos as Caloy Luna, Peter’s cousin; Carlos Dala as Jonjon Villamor, Jaycie’s younger brother.
Featuring in The Fake Life is Sparkle’s promising star - Will Ashley as Peter Luna, Onats’ righthand man; and introducing Shanelle Agustin as Jaycie Villamor, Onats and Cindy’s daughter who is such a daddy’s girl.
The Fake Life features the special participation of Kapuso stars Bea Binene as young Cindy; Kristoffer Martin as young Onats; Jake Vargas as young Mark; and Candy Pangilinan as young Sonya.
The series would not be possible if not for guidance of GMA Entertainment Group SVP Lilybeth G. Rasonable; VP for Drama Cheryl Ching-Sy; AVP for Drama Ali Nokom-Dedicatoria; Program Manager Anthony Pastorpide; Executive Producer James Ryan Manabat.
