Albert Martinez (Manuel) is reunited with Kapamilya actress Yen Santos (Lena), his leading lady in the top-rating Kapamilya afternoon teleserye All of Me.
In his highly anticipated reunion with Yen and the rest of the cast of the teleserye, Albert says he is glad to be back in the series.
“It’s a happy set and I’m glad to be back because I like the people I work with. I truly believed in the project since day one because it’s not all the time that I see a material as good as this.”
Albert’s return and the challenges he will encounter in the succeeding episodes are the plot twists and exciting scenes viewers should expect in the show.
Albert was seen again in the teleserye on Nov. 2 after Edong (JM de Guzman) was transformed back into his 50-year-old self (Manuel) by the tagapagbantay (MJ Lastimosa) for breaking his vow. Manuel’s son Ivan (Dentrix Ponce) was also supposed to die as a painful consequence to his deal with the tagapagbantay, but he begged to sacrifice his own life for the sake of his son. Now, Manuel has to face the big challenge of spending his last moments with his wife Lena and son Ivan for a limited time.
Manuel’s brave move to sacrifice his life touched the hearts of netizens, making the teleserye’s hashtag #AllOfMeKwintas a trending topic nationwide on Twitter.
Albert also shared that Manuel’s selfless love for his family is something he can relate to as a family man.
“I really started from scratch when I got married and I devoted my time to focus on my family. I made my own personal sacrifices to make sure my family will have a better life and at least live comfortably, so that sacrifice is very similar to Manuel.”
Albert also revealed that the latest chapter is all about falling in love again. He remarked, “The story started with Manuel’s wife dying and now he’s given a second chance to fall in love again. In my personal situation, it’s somewhat too close for comfort. It’s like I’m telling my story in a teleserye.”
What will be Lena’s reaction when she sees Manuel in their much-awaited reunion? Will they have a second shot at love?
