After more than a year away from afternoon drama, comedienne, TV host, and former beauty queen Herlene Budol is set to return as the lead star in GMA-7’s latest series, Binibining Marikit. Herlene’s last teleserye, Magandang Dilag, aired from June 26, 2023, to November 10, 2023, where she captured the hearts of many viewers with her charm and comedic timing.
This new project, Binibining Marikit, derives its title from the pandemic-hit song of the same name by singer Juan Caoile. It promises to bring a fresh and exciting storyline to afternoon drama, with Herlene taking on a central role once again.
On Friday afternoon, October 11, 2024, the cast and crew gathered at the GMA Network Studios in Quezon City for the story conference of Binibining Marikit. The event saw the attendance of several notable stars, including Tony Labrusca, who joins the series in his first afternoon drama assignment with the Kapuso network.
Tony, previously known for his work in ABS-CBN programs, is making a significant move to GMA and is expected to add more star power to the series.
Also present at the story conference were veteran and popular actors such as Pokwang, Cris Villanueva, Jeff Moses, Ashley Rivera, Thea Tolentino, Almira Muhlach, John Feir, and Miggs Almendras, all of whom will play key roles in the series. Their combined talents are expected to create a dynamic and compelling ensemble cast.
The show will be helmed by Jorron Monroy, a seasoned director who has already established a solid reputation within the Kapuso Network. Monroy is no stranger to handling high-profile afternoon dramas, having previously directed Shining Inheritance and Abot-Kamay na Pangarap.
His experience and expertise are expected to guide Binibining Marikit to success, making it one of the most anticipated afternoon dramas of 2024.
Fans of Herlene Budol and Tony Labrusca are eagerly waiting to see how this fresh pairing will unfold on screen, as they bring a new wave of excitement to daytime television.
