GMA Network’s Prime Time Queen Marian Rivera remains a loyal Kapuso. She also recently signed an exclusive contract for three years on February 5, Monday. She also answered questions from the press and media.
In the said signing, Marian declared: “Proud to be Kapuso talaga ako forever.”
Marian acknowledged that she never even thought of leaving the GMA Network.
“Wala naman kasi akong maisip na dahilan para hindi ako mag-renew sa GMA. Una sa lahat, sila ang bigay sa akin ng break… Pangalawa, parang forever ko nang tatanawin na utang na loob na kung ano naman ang meron ako ngayon is because of GMA yun… Dahil yun sa pagtitiwala nila, sa project na binibigay nila sa akin… So what else can I ask for, di ba? Binigay nang lahat ng GMA at saka wala nang ibang dahilan para di ako manatili dito.”
She started her career in 2005 as a Kapuso. Her most memorable projects also include Mars Ravelo’s Darna in 2009, Mars Ravelo’s Dyesebel in 2008, Amaya in 2011 and MariMar in 2007. She recently wrapped up her Super Ma’am and already has upcoming projects on the way.
“Sabi nga ni Atty. Gozon kanina, marami pa kaming dapat gawin… Kung akala nila, yun na yun, hindi pa kasi marami pa kaming dapat gawin.”
Marian gives her full trust to the network and her management when deciding for projects to pursue.
“For sure meron at meron. Siyempre, after ng contract signing, for sure after next month magmi-meeting kami, ‘O Marian, ito yung mga projects naming para sa ‘yo, ito ang gagawin natin.’ So palagi namang ganun ang GMA sa akin, e. Fair and square talaga sila. Lahat ng kung anong gusto nila, transparent sila sa akin. Parang lahat ng gusto nilang gawin hanggang sa nag-asawa ako, nagka-anak ako. At hanggang ngayon kaya very thankful talaga ako especially ‘pag nagko-collab sila ng management ko, with Triple A and GMA , parang panatag ang loob ko.”
Marian told the press that there will be a possibility of doing another heavy drama prime-time soon. However, she can’t confirm nor deny.
“Why not? Tignan natin, nasa plano kasi ng GMA ‘yan. Never kong kokontrahin ang plano sa akin ng GMA… Kung ano yung gusto nilang ibigay at makakabuti para sa career ko, e, magtitiwala ako sa kanila.”
Marian hopes to do a movie soon. When the press asked whether she could be open to working with new leading men from other TV networks. Although she prefers fellow Kapuso stars, she answered:
“Sila ang lumipat dito para makapareha ko sila.”
Marian explained, that GMA has a lot of developing stars.
“Napakadami nang artista ng GMA ngayon. Marami silang dinevelop na mga artista. So bakit pa ako maghahanap kung sa sarili kong network marami naman.”
Marian also jested that she and husband, Dingdong Dantes, can have a comeback project. In 2012, they starred as a love team in My Beloved in 2012.
“Malay niyo bigyan kami ng GMA ng sitcom, hindi namin alam.”
