Rhian Ramos talked about her role in ‘Encantadia’
Kapuso actress Rhian Ramos believed that there is more beyond a person being a “kontrabida” onscreen and in real life.
Rhian has done various projects and roles in TV series and movies. She has played protagonist roles in the past and she was able to deliver what the character needed.
For her most recent project, she portrayed the biggest “kontrabida”. She is part of the Kapuso fantasy series Encantadia Chronicles: Sang’gre.
In a recent interview, based on the article in the Philippine Star, Rhian Ramos believed that villains are made and not born. For her, outside factors and circumstances can make someone an antagonist.
“I believe that all people are intrinsically good and that no one is born to do bad things. It comes from a place of pain, of trauma, and for me to understand my character, was my biggest challenge,” Rhian said.
She added that even though situations might create negative things for people who would commit mean actions, it is still important to choose the good side because, for her, being good amid challenging times can define a person.
“I don’t think that our situations will ever justify our actions. It’s always still a choice of what you choose to do and how you react to what happens to you. You can’t say that I did this because this happened to me. So, yeah, it’s still a personal choice,” the Kapuso actress said.
In the new season of Encantadia, the character of Rhian Ramos will go against the Sang’gres as she tries to take over the throne of Lireo and all the Kingdoms of Encantandia.
Rhian’s character is a cursed child, Mitena, who promised vengeance from her parents and twin, Cassiopea (Solenn Heussaff) if she would break free from her icy fortress in Mineave.
The actress mentioned that this is her first antagonist role. She jokingly said, “I really do believe that the bad guys have more fun.”
