While the entertainment landscape changes, here goes Cornerstone Entertainment providing what you need online as they release new vertical content particularly "123 Boyfriend Ni Marie" and "My Favorite Liar". These two shows will be seen on Cornerstone's YouTube channel and the Beetzee Play website (which you can watch at 1 peso per episode), making it extremely affordable for everyone to see.
"123 Boyfriend Ni Marie" will star viral live seller and content creator Perlas plus her attractive love team Niko Badayos, they hunky guy from boy group Yes My Love. They will be together with Aaron Gonzales and Eli Padilla as love interests plus Naia Ching, Zoozoo, Sofia Jarhling and Samantha Samarita who'll play interesting characters in the show. Meanwhile, "My Favorite Liar" will star new loveteam Patrick Rocamora from boy group VXON and Cheska Cabrera together with Kobe Michael Francisco and Angela Balagtas who's going to be another pair telling their lies in this love story. They talked about it lengthily during our interview with them, so please, watch this!
Although new to acting, these folks scream a very promising career because they put effort into it. They have undergone workshops and see what they need to do now that they are being paired. I also liked what Perlas said about just being chill about it, because it would be awesome to see it bloom into something else, they just need to be as natural as they can be. All these homegrown Cornerstone artists plan to do more of these shows on the same platform so if you want to see the vertical series and future ones, sub because it's going to be a great ride!
If you've seen the trailer, you would say Zaijan Jaranilla is not the same person. He's our Santino of course, but now that he's a wee bit older, wiser, more daring, you can expect him to deliver a different version of himself because the material was perfect.
This series is MOVIE quality. Made by Direk Dolly Dulu, it's going to be a coming of age romcom film which pairs Zaijan to a more experienced Jane Oineza. Zaijan and Jane read the script, and couldn't put it down so they started reading it from Sundown to Sunrise. This will probably be a weekly release starting from May 31st on the Purgold Channel YouTube Channel. No need to pay for a ticket because it's completely free to watch. Isn't that awesome?!
Here's the press conference held at the stage of Aling Puring Sari Sari Convention 2025:
I was also quite intrigued about Joao Constancia's character, will he be the third party or just a friend in this series? That's exactly what you have to figure out as Zaijan and Jane go through the ropes of falling in love, doing it, and see the intricacies of relationships, disappointment and hopefully fall in love again.
Would you want to be part of that journey? Make sure you subscribe to the Puregold Channel because I heard, there's certainly more to this story. Take note also of the color grading they are doing for this, because it's going to follow SOL and LUNA's lives in the series. Can't wait to see it!
I've had the pleasure of watching Seth Fedelin and Francine Diaz's recent MMFF 2024 film "MY FUTURE YOU" which won Seth "Breakthrough Performance for an Actor" and a nomination for Best Actor in the film festival. Star Magic recently put the SPOTLIGHT on him after the win and he told us how he felt right after that win because he told us it didn't really sink in til he went home and celebrated with his family. Seth felt it wasn't just his win, but a huge win for his dreams, and his family.
Seth told us how he was very eager to make this count especially since projects of this magnitude doesn't come so often. When they were making it, he talked to Francine about its importance and they knew they had to return the trust being given to them by the production because it was the perfect vehicle to showcase their acting strengths. It was initially set to premiere during the 3rd quarter of 2024, but then it got moved twice, then was sent to the 50th MMFF. Regal told them that this was going to be just something they'd send to the committee with a prayer, til they saw it being announced as one of the finalists in the 2024 Metro Manila Film Festival.
He even drove back home to tell his folks, Francine told him about it. And when they did the whole promotion thing for the movie, he wasn't ready about how BIG it is.
Here's the whole interview with him a few days ago, super thanks Seth for being so nice that day!
Seth says "In all the things I do, I am really too shy. I don't know how I do it when I'm in front of the camera especially when I do roles that are really important to me. When I do it, I try to toughen up because I'm my own critic. I just do my best, and when people see it, that's me. I really mix in my persona, I don't remove myself from scenes. I just tell myself that I need to do it, like self motivation. I am happy to do it even if I'm not in my best look in the studios, I just show my truth."
He adds "I've got so many actors I'd want to work with. I'd like drama, to have a bad boy flick, action or something like that. Still a hero but challenging, a different take to a character. I'd like to do that in a different project. I'd want to learn about it first because I know it is difficult to do that."
This isn't the last time you'll be seeing Seth because from the looks of it, he's going to have a few more projects this 2025 especially because of his recent win. He also is open to do projects with other stars, even if they won't be working with each other because he finds it limiting for Francine if the pairing is going to hold them back. But don't fret, because they still are eager to also work with each other (he says he's full tank). Who wouldn't want to see that!
Make sure you follow him and Star Magic's social channels because I'm sure they've got something up their sleeves! (TV series Nobody, shooting soon!).
