Kapuso star Derrick Monasterio will be playing the role of an extraordinary guy named Nonoy, a jeepney driver who turns into a superhero because of a mysterious object from a distant planet.
This will be Derrick’s first superhero role so he’s very grateful to GMA Network for this opportunity. He said, “It is my first time to portray a role like this na isang superhero. Nakakakaba talaga siya pero at the sametime nakakachallenge din kaya mas pagbubutihan kop o talaga yung trabaho ko. Nakakaflatter din po kasi dahil ako yung napili ng GMA to portray this role. So I have to work hard for this project.”
Nonoy’s journey becomes more interesting as he develops feelings for Eva played by Bea Binene, a barker who finds Nonoy’s kalye attitude irritating and endearing at the same time.
Joining them are respected actor Gabby Concepcion as Sgt. Cruz, Nonoy’s ninong who works as a cop; Alma Moreno as Aling Martha, Nonoy’s half-blind and loving mother; Albert “Betong” Sumaya as Julius, a small time crook; Philip Lazaro as Mang Pedi, the owner of the karinderia where Nonoy usually hangs out; Miggs Cuaderno as Bok, the alien who gives Nonoy his powers; Valentin as Polding, a cook;Annalyn Barro as Anna, the probinsyana niece of Mang Pedi who Nonoy becomes friends with; Jemwell Ventenilla as Choy, the street kid that Nonoy and Eva come across with; Kuhol as Mong, the tactless yosi vendor.
Under the helm of Direk LA Madridejos, “Tsuperhero” is an original concept of Kapuso comedy genius Michael V.
