The last week of December saw a lot of unexpected plot twists and suprises—especially for Jadine fans! Yup, James Reid and Nadine Lustre will be starring again in what seems to be a very millennial film (based on the teaser photos). If this will be another heartbreaking film, we are yet to find out. For now, we’ll just wait for the full teaser to be uploaded soon.
After the box-office success of Heneral Luna, Artikulo Uno Productions has finally come up with its sequel, Goyo: Ang Batang Heneral. Based on the teasers, they gave a lot of attention to detail on this one: they have huge production sets (some even took months to make!) and even hired historians as consultants for the film. But of course, we’re also excited to see Paulo Avelino playing the title role!
