Julia Barretto comes back on her own terms.
Famous actress Julia Barretto is embarking on a new journey in her career after she decided to leave Viva’s management.
Julia Barretto is now an independently managed actress. She marked this significant step in her showbiz career after leaving Viva to take full control of her professional journey. She recently revealed this while promoting her upcoming Metro Manila Film Festival (MMFF) 2026 entry, Haunted Carnival, describing the decision as both exciting and empowering.
After years of being represented by talent management agencies since she started her career, she is now handling her own career with the support of a trusted team. She said the move allows her to make decisions that are more aligned with her personal goals and artistic vision while remaining open to projects that challenge her as an actress.
Despite this, she stressed that she continues to enjoy a strong working relationship with Viva, which remains her home for film projects. According to her, the decision to go independent does not affect her collaborations with the entertainment company. She remains grateful for the opportunities it has given her throughout the years.
While taking charge of her own career comes with greater responsibility, she sees it as an opportunity for growth. She is now at a stage in her life where she feels more confident making important decisions and navigating the entertainment industry on her own terms.
“Ginusto kong mas maingat sa susunod kong gagawin. Gusto kong maging masaya sa proyekto na gagawin ko. I want to finish the project na fulfilled ako na may impact siya sa akin. So naghintay ako ng tamang timing. You just have to be patient and God is good, dumating ‘to and I have an exciting project also with this,” she explained.
