Gerald Anderson is Budoy

MANILA, Philippines - All is set tonight for the premiere of ABS-CBN’s Budoy.

Gerald Anderson shares excitement over his latest Primetime Bida series. “Napakaganda ng paglalakbay na ipakikita sa atin ni Budoy. Aside from the powerhouse cast, there are a lot of values in life and family that the viewers can learn from the story.”

Playing the title role of a boy suffering from mild retardation, Gerald says he is blessed to have been immersed in Budoy’s character. “Napakalaking tulong sa pagganap ko ang immersion na ginawa namin. Mas lumalim ang pagkilala ko kay Budoy at na-inspire ako sa pagmamahal niya sa pamilya at sa sipag at determinasyon niyang harapin ang buhay.”

Gerald has worked his way up to be one of this generation’s most sought-after leading men through Sana Maulit Muli, My Girl, Tayong Dalawa and Kung Tayo’y Magkakalayo.

Witness a different Gerald in Budoy and see how he portrays the role which he describes as “different and refreshing.”

How can a family blessing turn into a family shame? How can a family disown their own flesh and blood in the name of an unblemished reputation? Can a mentally-challenged boy survive the discriminating eyes of the society? 

Also in Budoy are Jessy Mendiola, Enrique Gil, Dante Rivero, Gloria Sevilla, Barbara Perez, Tirso Cruz III, Zsa-Zsa Padilla, Mylene Dizon, Christian Vazquez and Janice de Belen, who makes a comeback in the Kapamilya network.
