Miguel Tanfelix Grateful For New Show On GMA-7 But Pressured Because They'll Be Up Against A Toprating Rival On Their Time Slot

MIGUEL TANFELIX is very thankful for the new primetime show that GMA-7 has assigned to him and his ka-love team, Bianca Umali. Still untitled as of now, it will start airing on November 27 to replace “Alyas Robin Hood”.

“Sobrang nakakatuwa kasi right after ‘Mulawin vs. Ravena’, heto may follow up project agad kami,” says Miguel. “Ang bilis nga, wala pa kaming masyadong pahinga, tapos meron agad bagong show and we really appreciate it na hindi kami nabakante nang matagal.”

They will be up against “Luna Sangre”. How do they feel about it? “Siempre po, matindi ang pressure,” he says. “But we’re confident na maganda ang aming show. Sa story, nang makita namin ni Bianca ang makakasama naming veteran stars na sina Gloria Romero, Christopher de Leon, Jean Garcia, Alfred Vargas, Carmina Villaroel, Marvin Agustin at iba pang magagaling na aktor, sobrang


na-excite kami. Alam naming marami kaming matututuhan sa kanila while working with them, and at the same time, magsisilbi silang challenge sa amin para mag-level up kami at makasabay sa husay nila sa acting.”

They will play their most mature roles so far in this new show. “Sinabihan kaming malayo na ito sa pa-cute at pa-sweet roles na ginagawa namin before. Kaya nae-excite talaga kami kasi we’re all fired up to meet the demands of our roles and this new show, sa tulong ng director naming si Don Michael Perez.”

He’s glad that Bianca and he took the BOVA acting workshop offered by GMA Artist Center a few months ago. “It was conducted by the acting coach from New York, Anthony Bova, based on the works of Eric Morris at malaking tulong ito sa amin to come up with more authentic performances, para matuto rin kaming makipagsabayan at hindi mapag-iwanan ng veteran stars na kasama namin sa show.”

Miguel is also happy that he and Bianca are in the cast of a new movie, “Barbi, D Wonder Beki”, of OctoArts Films and T Rex Productions. “Sa story, si Bianca is Miley at ako naman, si Cyrus. Kaya kami si Miley Cyrus. Nag-enjoy po kami doing this is Paolo Ballesteros, Joey de Leon, Ejay Falcon, Joey Marquez, sa direction ni Tony Reyes, opening po ito on November 29.”
