Green Rose premieres tonight

MANILA, Philippines - ABS-CBN gives everyone another masterpiece starting tonight via Green Rose. It airs after Imortal.

A local adaptation of the Koreanovela with the same title, Green Rose stars Jericho Rosales, Anne Curtis, Jake Cuenca and Alessandra de Rossi.

Jericho, whose last teleserye was Dahil May Isang Ikaw opposite Kristine Hermosa, plays Jerome Delgado, a simple man with simple dreams in life. He will do everything to protect his name. “Maganda yung papel ko dito. I can say this is one of my favorite projects,” Jericho shared.

Meanwhile, Anne, whose last full-series was The Wedding in 2009, is excited to play the role of Angela Tuazon, the woman who will fall in love with Jerome. “Na-miss ko maging part ng teleserye talaga. Kaya now that I’m given the chance again, I will definitely do my best,” Anne said.

Jericho and Anne were paired in the film Baler in 2008 where Anne was nominated three times in separate award-giving bodies under the Best Actress category. On the other hand, Jericho won two Best Actor awards for his portrayal in the movie.

Jake, who was part of the Rubi remake, looks forward to the upcoming series. “Eversince we started taping for Green Rose, excited na ko na umere yung series dahil, walang bola po, ang ganda ng kwento. Kahit pa part ako ng cast, gusto ko rin mapanood sa primetime ito,” Jake said. Jake is Edward Fuentabella who’s aggressive in achieving his goals even if it means betraying the people who have trusted him.

Alessandra will portray Geena Rallos who’s willing to do anything for the love of Edward. Alessandra was last seen in Wansapanataym’s Cara.

Also in the cast are Susan Africa, Ping Medina, Smokey Manaloto, Kitkat, Gardo Versoza, Ricardo Cepeda and Janus del Prado.

Green Rose is directed by Dondon Santos, Manny Palo and Darnel Joy Villaflor.
