Maricel Soriano's supposed comeback to ABS-CBN primetime television via
the upcoming teleserye "Bukas Na Lang Kita Mamahalin” has been nipped
in the bud.
According to reports, Maricel shouted at the teleserye’s lead actor Gerald Anderson on the set.
ABS-CBN Corporate Communications Head Bong Osorio’s statement, however, did not specify the reason for the network decision.
It
reads, "Due to the unfortunate incident between Gerald Anderson and
Maricel Soriano that transpired on the first taping day of “Bukas Na
Lang Kita Mamahalin,” the ABS-CBN management and the management of
Maricel Soriano have agreed that Maricel will no longer be part of the
cast. The teleserye starring Gerald Anderson will proceed as scheduled."
As
for who will play the role originally meant for Maricel, Osorio
promised that his office will make the “proper announcement when the
choice is made.”
"Bukas Na Lang Kita Mamahalin" also stars Cristine Reyes and Rayver Cruz.
