“This 2025 is the biggest plot twist of my life.”

This was the statement of Angela Muji, who has successfully transitioned from being a member of the P-pop group P-pop Generation to becoming an actress.

Aside from the web series Seducing Drake Palma, Viva Films also announced that Angela, together with her love team partner Rabin Angeles, will headline the movie A Werewolf Boy. The Filipino adaptation of the Korean film will be the production's first movie offering for 2026.

The newbie actress said, “Hindi ko siya in-expect, it just landed on my lap. When I heard the news that I will be starring in a film, and not just starring, I'll be leading in it—sobrang hindi ako makapaniwala, natulala lang po ako, e. I had to snap back into reality. Parang, wow, ang galing.

“Lahat ng mga pinagdarasal ko noon, lahat ng mga pinapangarap ko noon na imposibleng makamit, biglang nasa harapan ko na.

“At that moment, I didn't know how to react. But now that I'm sitting here, in this press conference with everybody, it seems more real to me. Even though it's over, I'm still in a limbo.

“Hindi ko pa siya ma-process, but I'm just super grateful and happy. Tuluy-tuloy lang po yung blessings na dumarating sa akin. Thankful lang po talaga ako kay God, sa Viva, at sa lahat po ng nagtitiwala sa akin.”

When GMANetwork.com asked Angela if she felt that her decision to pursue acting was worth it, she replied, “Yes po. It's always been a dream of mine to be an actress. Passion ko rin po ang dancing and singing. Pero once I started acting, dito ko na-realize na mas love ko pala talaga ang acting—mas masaya sa feeling, mas fulfilling siya. Ang sarap sa feeling. I love acting so much po.”

Does this mean she is leaving her P-pop career behind?

Angela answered, “I'm torn because, like I said, love ko rin talaga ang mag-sing and mag-dance. Kaya as much as possible, tina-try ko siyang i-incorporate sa mall shows — sumasayaw ako at kumakanta ako — para ma-satisfy ko yung self ko na I'm still dancing and singing kahit I am no longer part of a girl group.”
