AS she embarks on a new chapter of her career, newly-signed Kapamilya actress Lovi Poe opened up about her dream projects with the network, which includes doing a remake of the action-fantasy film Ang Panday.
In a virtual media conference on Thursday, Poe giggled as she shared her dream of becoming a Panday or blacksmith, which was popularized by her late father, Fernando Poe Jr., who was first to portray the role in 1980.
“I would love to do Panday. That’s a dream,” she said.
And it appears that ABS-CBN executives, who were also present in the press conference, agreed with her idea, host Robi Domingo revealed.
“Abangan natin ‘yan, Panday, Lovi Poe? Why not?” Domingo echoed.
According to the veteran actress, she has yet to do an action series in her showbiz career that spans more than 15 years.
Poe was also asked about the possibility of joining the long-running hit series Ang Probinsyano starring Coco Martin.
“That would be a good experience. I hope, if given the opportunity if our schedules would permit, that would be a nice opportunity,” she said.
Poe earlier inked a deal with ABS-CBN where she was welcomed by ABS-CBN president and chief executive officer Carlo Katigbak, chief operating officer of broadcast Cory Vidanes, group chief financial officer Rick Tan, and Dreamscape Entertainment head Deo Endrinal.(ABS-CBN News)
