‘Start-Up’ remake offer a no-brainer for Bea
Award-winning actress and box-office star Bea Alonzo hasn’t done a remake of a popular Koreanovela. So when GMA Network offered her to do the Philippine adaptation of “Start-Up”, it didn’t take long for her management team to say yes.
This is the first team-up of Bea with Alden Richards. It is also Alden’s first Koreanovela remake. GMA Network has yet to reveal who will direct the series. Aside from the remake of “Start-Up”, Bea and Alden are set to do a movie to be produced by Viva Films and GMA Films.
The filming of the movie has yet to be set since Bea has some scheduling problems. But she has no complaints. She has several projects waiting for her availability. What is most likely to happen is that work for the Koreanovela will have to be finished first before filming for the movie can start.
Despite the slight delays in her projects, Bea remains thankful for the work coming her way. With some stars hardly getting jobs during to the pandemic, work knocking on Bea’s door are blessings indeed.
