MANILA, Philippines - This August, Dennis Trillo (photo) returns to primetime TV on GMA 7’s upcoming series My Faithful Husband.
Dennis will breathe life to the character of Emman dela Paz, a devoted and doting husband to Mel and father to their children. He is willing to do anything for his family. However, he felt so much pain when he found out that his wife betrayed him.
According to Dennis, playing Emman is far from his previous roles. “Siguro hindi ’yung typical na lagi na lang porma, laging ayos. Dito medyo deglamourized siya ng konti kasi yung character ni Emman, mababa lang pinag-aralan niya. Hindi siya mayaman. Hindi siya maporma. Galing siya sa simpleng pamilya. Simpleng tao lang siya.”
Playing opposite him in the series is Jennylyn Mercado as Mel, Emman’s wife. They first teamed up in the drama series Gumapang ka sa Lusak and anticipation is high for their reunion project which will showcase their onscreen chemistry.
Dennis is excited to be working with Jennylyn again. “Last time ko siya nakatrabaho five years ago, Dramarama sa Hapon ’yung ginawa namin. Ngayon naman sa primetime. At hindi ito yung pangkaraniwang love story, love triangle. This time, makikita naman nila dito na hindi yung lalake ’yung nangangaliwa. Instead, babae yung nagkaroon ng affair sa ibang lalake kahit kasal na siya. Pero yung plot ng kwento, hindi siya yung typical plot ng mag-asawa na may kabit. Magsisimula siya medyo magaan, then pabigat ng pabigat.”
Bb. Joyce Bernal helms the teleserye and Dennis is also excited since this will be his first time to be working with her.
