Katrina Halili joins Dennis Trillo anew in this graphic novel turned TV series as a sexy actress who possesses deadly powers.
One of the newest female superheroes in town will soon be seen on national television via GMA's newest primetime offering, "Carlo J. Caparas' Gagambino." Katrina Halili joins Dennis Trillo anew in this graphic novel turned TV series as a sexy actress who possesses deadly powers. Text by Loretta G. Ramirez, Photos by Connie M. Tungul Carlo J. Caparas' Gagambino stars a powerhouse cast headed by the award-winning heartthrob Dennis Trillo. Opposite Dennis is one of the hottest leading ladies in the land - Katrina Halili. Katrina is no stranger to the spotlight, having already appeared in hit shows such as Magdusa Ka, Marimar Majika and Obra Not Just a Sexy Actress Katrina Halili plays the role of Lucy, one of Bino's (Dennis Trillo) childhood friends. Lucy is also a sexy actress who has been given the powers of a praying mantis. At the press conference last October 13, 2008, she jokingly said that the press kit had it all wrong. "Tinatawag nila akong sexy star. Pero sinasabi ko, 'Hindi ako sexy star, actress ako!' (laughs)." "Sobrang character ko po siya. As in palaban din siya, pero, mabait din. Tapos, makulit din. Pero hindi siya sobrang kulit, tama lang. As in, parang ako lang. Matapang din siya. Although 'yung totoong Katrina, hindi naman siya pumapatay. Pero dito, si Lucy, pumapatay siya ng mga bad na tao," describes the real life sexy siren. She continues that her character has the ability to jump high and possesses large blades on her arms as protection, just like the insect she is supposed to be influenced by. Back with Dennis Gagambino is a reunion of Dennis and Katrina on primetime television. After their successful Dramarama project Magdusa Ka, the Network deemed it a good idea to reunite their team in GMA's newest telefantasya. Katrina confesses that she is happy that she is with Dennis again and that she appreciates the Network's decision to have them both in this big project. She said that she has established a good rapport with the Gagambino star and that this will definitely make their work a lot easier. "Feeling ko nag ji-jive kapag nagbabatuhan kami ng lines and sa tingin ko may chemistry kami onscreen," shares Katrina with iGMA during the show's pictorial. She also said that she is enjoying her role in this program and that compared to her previous shows, she is more relaxed now. "Hindi ito sobrang bigat. Kasi, from Magdusa Ka, nagdusa po talaga ko dahil sinabayan ng Obra, so, na-drain po akong talaga. Pero after, sobrang gaan na po lahat ng trabaho ko. Pati sa Sundo, kikay lang ako. Tapos sa One Night Only, ganoon din, gold digger na kalog at kikay," declares the young actress. Watch this sexy siren unleash her powers starting October 20 when Carlo J. Caparas’ Gagambino starts spinning its web of adventures right after Codename: Asero on GMA's Primetime Telebabad block.
