Chynna Ortaleza is used to playing the kontrabida role, and in The Last Prince, she will once again play the part para pahirapan ang buhay ng character ng lead star na si Kris Bernal. After Adik sa 'Yo wherein Chynna played a character na pseudo-kontrabida last year, nagpahinga muna siya pansamantala sa pananakit sa mga bida para mag-enjoy sa isang youth oriented program. Bukod sa kanyang weekly performances sa SOP Fully Charged, Chynna also got busy last year with a series of shows that honor kids who are achievers. She said to iGMA, "Yung mga first placers sa quiz bees, mga student achievers, mga ganoon, binibigyan namin ng award." Chynna said she doesn't know if the shows will continue this year, pero if she could have her way, it would. "It's a fun thing to do e." In the meantime, focused muna si Chynna sa kanyang bagong prime time project, ang The Last Prince, wherein she plays the role of Lourdes. Bilang si Lourdes, Chynna will be the antagonist sa buhay ni Lara (Kris Bernal) before and during the time she meets Almiro (Aljur Abrenica). "Basically, medyo mean siya kay Kris Bernal sa paniniwala na salot si Kris," kuwento ni Chynna. Sa istorya kasi ng The Last Prince, Kris's family gets involved in an accident, at madadamay din ang kasintahan ng character ni Chynna. According to the young actress, ito ang magiging dahilan kung bakit galit si Lourdes kay Lara. "Yun 'yung pinanggagalingan ng hate niya." Gray character Marami nang kontrabida roles na ginampanan si Chynna, but she noted na whereas her first two telefantasya serye, she played really evil characters, when she was given human roles, laging gray area ang morality nito. "Usually naman, ang [human] characters ko gray," aniya. Ang kaibahan nga lang daw nito sa kanyang previous gray characters is —"poor lang siya." As an example, Chynna cited Paano Ba Ang Mangarap? wherein she played the kontrabida whose anger and hatred "stems from 'yung love na hindi naibalik." For The Last Prince, Chynna said the anger is based on the "loss of a loved one naman." Pero gaya sa Paano Ba Ang Mangarap?, ang magiging kakampi ni Chynna sa Last Prince ay ang nanay ng kanyang former boyfriend who will be played by Jay Aquitania. "Ang lagi ko lang nakakausap is 'yung mommy nung boyfriend ko doon, si Angelu de Leon." Chynna saids her character is close to Angelu, "kasi hate din [nila] si Kris dahil nga doon sa nangyari." Ano nga ba ang nangyari sa accident na nabanggit ni Chynna? At bakit magiging magkakampi pa sila ni Angelu sa pagpapahirap sa buhay ni Kris? Find out on The Last Prince weeknights on GMA Telebabad, pagkatapos ng Darna. - Jason John S. Lim, iGMA
