MANILA, Philippines - Heart Evangelista (photo) has established herself as an actress. From portraying a clumsy wannabe writer in Full House to a strong-willed flight attendant in Langit Sa Piling Mo, the award-winning Kapuso star has proven that she is able to effectively bring life any role, any story, whether it be drama, comedy, romance, or fantasy.
But while growth has been a significant highlight in Heart’s burgeoning career in the previous years, her role in GMA 7’s upcoming original telefantasya literally lacks just that. On GMA 7’s Dwarfina, Heart will assume the character of a girl born with one glaring abnormality: Her height. Dwarfina is no taller than a finger as she was cursed by a black duwende after her parents accidentally destroyed a mound inhabited by the supernatural creatures.
Starring with Heart is Dennis Trillo (photo), who will play the role of Lyndon, Dwarfina’s childhood best friend. Dennis plays a pivotal role in helping Dwarfina cope with her physical limitation, protecting and supporting her in every way.
Heart and Dennis welcome this opportunity to work once again with each other following their team-up in an episode for Dear Friend (Edison at Anna) as well as in the movie Mano Po last year.
