Bringing the kilig to more viewers.
Following its successful run on streaming platform Viu, the series Love, Siargao, which the first on-screen team-up of Filipino superstars Alden Richards and Nadine Lustre, will be expanding to another platform soon.
This, as the chart-topping program of the said over-the-top (OTT) service will be heading to free-to-air television via GMA.
According to a report on 24 Oras on Wednesday, August 26, the powerhouse collaboration of Viu and Viva Entertainment will soon be aired on the flagship network this September.
However, the time slot and other details are still kept under wraps at the moment, but will be announced in the coming days.
It was back in June when the series that sees people of different backgrounds coming together in the island due to their own circumstances made its digital premiere.
The series follows Jao (Alden Richards) and Kara (Nadine Lustre), whose lives will get entangled with one another because of the “Siargao curse.”
Kara decided to stay put the moment she set foot on the island, while Jao, who is broken upon his arrival on the island, had his relationship ended by his girlfriend.
Jao will then hire Kara as his tour guide to discover the island and find something he had lost.
Love, Siargao is under the direction of the tandem of Dwein Baltazar and Jade Castro, with the two actors joining an ensemble of cast featuring Kim Ji-soo, Kakki Teodoro, Kyline Alcantara, Gab Lagman, AZ Martinez, Vince Maristela, Adrian Lindayag, and and viral Kalokalike contestant Christopher Diwata.
Former It’s Showtime host Coleen Garcia also has a special participation in this project, marking her acting comeback.
Meanwhile, serving as the series’ official theme song is the song Alon, which is a single by Filipino K-pop star JL Gaspar—a member of the boy band AHOF.
