- Andrea Torres wouldn’t make ratings of Victor Magtanggol as her main goal.
- She recently bid farewell to two things as Sif: her long hair where her powers come from and her sidekick.
- She noted how those two things are important to her character and sacrificed those just to help the titular character.
Andrea Torres portrays the Norse goddess Sif in GMA Network’s fantaserye, Victor Magtanggol. The show has yet to catch up with its Kapamilya rival, FPJ’s Ang Probinsyano when it comes to ratings and its most-watched show status.
Andrea, however, noted that she would panic if ratings become her main goal.
Andrea on ratings as main goal.
Although they didn’t intend for the show to continuously lose against FPJ’s Ang Probinsyano, Andrea wouldn’t make ratings as her main goal.
“Ang hirap kasi pag ginawa mong goal ‘yung ratings, ‘yung main goal ha, parang mapa-praning ka? Na yung attention mo nandoon sa numbers, imbes na dun sa istorya, sa role mo. Happy naman kami, at least nakikita namin ‘yung mga tweets nila, na-aappreciate nila ‘yung story, ‘yung ginagawa namin, yun.”
Andrea on heartbreaking scene.
Andrea recently had to say goodbye to her creature friend, Ratatoskr, and Sif’s long hair where her powers come from. She noted how heartbreaking it was for her to shoot the scene as she grew an attachment with the stuffed toy.
“Naaalala ko kasi nung shinoot namin ‘yung scene… actually nakita ko pa lang ‘yung script medyo kinilabutan na ako. Atsaka parang days [‘yun] nasa utak ko siya, kasi nga ang bigat nung eksena, eh. Parang siyempre puputulin ko ‘yung hair ko, tapos mawawala si Ratty, so ang bigat.”
“Dalawa ‘yung nangyari dun sa isang eksena. Tapos naaalala ko nag-tweet pa ako kasi the next day dala-dala ko pa din siya, ang sad, sad ko. Parang tinuweet ko lang na abangan nila ‘yung eksena, kasi nga nafi-feel ko pa rin lahat ng na-feel ko nung shinoot ko siya.”
Andrea shared the importance of Ratty and her long hair to Sif’s character.
“Siyempre ang laking part nung buhok si Sif sa kanya, eh. ‘Yun ‘yung powers niya, eh. Tapos siyempre, si Ratty… kami ‘yung inseparable… Nagulat lang din ako, kasi late din nasabi sa akin, eh. Parang hinabol siya, surprise ganyan.”
