CEBU, Philippines - Angel Locsin and Maja Salvador are both thrilled with how their slapping scene in “The Legal Wife†trailer became a hot topic among TV viewers and netizens. However, Angel confessed that it was difficult for her to do it.
“Slapping Maja, whom I consider like my little sister, was not as easy as it looked like on screen. Actually, I really avoid having scenes like that because I don’t want to hurt my co-actors,†said Angel, who will play the role of Monica in the story, the wife of Adrian, to be played by Jericho Rosales.
Just like the viewers who felt the power slap of Angel, Maja strongly feels that the brave, real-life plot of “The Legal Wife†will get primetime viewers hooked every night.
“My character and Angel, Jericho, JC’s (de Vera) all have their life battles. And I think every viewer can connect with any of them. Because in real-life, we all experience love, pain and fighting back,†said Maja, who will give life to the character of Nicole.
“The Legal Wife†gathers some of the country’s best drama actors including Joem Bascon, Ahron Villena, Rio Locsin, Mark Gil, and Christopher de Leon. It is under the direction of Rory Quintos and Dado Lumibao.
