Lovi Poe, Agot Isidro and Mara Lopez lead the cast of GMA News TV's Titser

Casting for GMA News TV’s female-dominated series TITSER -- topbilled by multi-awarded character actress Lovi Poe -- is now complete.  Lovi is joined by singer-actress Agot Isidro and by indie film darling Mara Lopez in the new series, which follows on the heels of GMA News TV’s hugely successful Bayan Ko.      

Lovi plays Michelle in TITSER: a poverty stricken high school girl who dreams of becoming a teacher, but whose only option after graduation is to work as a housemaid. Mara Lopez plays Rosa -- Michelle’s best friend and toughest competitor, who ends up a single mother.  The two girls struggle against fate and financial limitations to reach their goal of finishing school. Their mentor and inspiration is Teacher Sandra, portrayed by Agot Isidro, who leads her own fight against a corrupt principal. 

Actors Gardo Versoza, Arnell Ignacio, Irma Adlawan, Carl Guevarra and Rocco Nacino will also be starring in the series -- which will be shot on location in Boso Boso, Antipolo starting this weekend. 


TITSER is directed by acclaimed indie filmmaker and head of the Ateneo Filipino Department Alvin Yapan and written by Bayan Ko’s creator Nessa Valdellon. It will be filmed on high definition and go through the color grading process.

TITSER begins airing Sunday, August 11 on GMA News TV Channel 11 -- but already, production is in full swing.
