MANILA, Philippines – Young actress Julia Montes is set to take on another challenging role as she plays a 15-year-old dancer-prostitute in an upcoming episode of drama anthology “Maalaala Mo Kaya.”
According to Julia Montes, she was immediately drawn to the story of Diana when she first read the script of the “MMK” episode.
“When I learned that I’ve got a new ‘MMK’ project, I wanted to start taping immediately. Then when I knew about the story, I got more excited to do it because it’s a chance to show the TV viewers a different side of me,” she said.
“At first, I wondered how can I portray the role since it’s really different and mature. But I accepted the challenge,” the 17-year-old actress added.
Aside from Julia Montes, the “MMK” episode will also feature Kiko Estrada, Daisy Reyes, Mike Lloren, Giselle Sanchez, Wendy Valdez, Kazel Kinouchi, Madz Nicolas, Glenda Garcia, Joe Vargas and Alexa Ilacad.
Late last year, Julia Montes took everyone by surprise after she pulled off a remarkable performance in a rape scene in the top-rating series “Walang Hanggan.”
That episode showed Katerina (Julia Montes) being forced to have sex by her husband Nathan (Paulo Avelino).
After years of marriage without sexual intimacy, the "psychotic" Nathan was shown attempting to rape Katerina as she was held hostage by her brother Tomas (Joem Bascon) and Johanna (Melissa Ricks).
According to Kantar Media, that “Walang Hanggan” episode ranked first in the country's overall top 20 programs at the time.
