On December 23, actor-director Coco Martin hinted at what was in store for FPJ’s Batang Quiapo for 2024.
During the visit of FPJ’s Batang Quiapo cast at the Blessed Family Elderly Care Facility and the National Children’s Hospital in Quezon City, which LionhearTV attended, Martin appreciated the support their Kapamilya action series had with Pinoy viewers.
“Natutuwa ako kasi kahit December ngayon, nakikita namin at nararamdaman namin na ‘yung suporta at pagmamahal ng mga tao hindi bumibitiw. Kasi talagang sinisigurado namin na hanggang matapos, dumerederetso, hindi kami bibitiw, hindi naman isho-short ‘yung mga tao.”
He then promised a more compelling concept and story for FPJ’s Batang Quiapo for 2024.
“Na patuloy ‘yung kwento kasi talagang napakaganda ng konsepto at sobra akong proud na napakahusay lahat ng mga artista. Kaya ‘yung ganda ng kwento, kahit ngayong ka-Paskuhan, ngayong New Year, talagang pasabog ‘yung dito, kaya mas-eexpect ninyo pa sa susunod na taon.”
He then revealed their production’s plan to tape episodes around the Philippines and out of the country.
“Kung panonoorin niyo, halos mag-uumpisa pa lang ‘yung kwento eh. Kumbaga pabunga pa lang eh. Next year, maraming complication, maraming palitan ng mga conflict ‘yung istorya. Kaya ‘yun ang dapat abangan.
“Oo meron, meron, kasi–meron na pero mahirap pang sabihin dahil marami pang inaayos. Pero tulad nga ng sabi namin sa Ang Probinsyano, iikutin din namin ang buong Pilipinas, at i-explore din namin ang ibang bansa para mabigyan pa ng magandang kwento ang mga Pilipino.”
As for their recent outreach event, FPJ’s Batang Quiapo cast members Coco Martin, Lito Lapid, Lorna Tolentino, and Mark Lapid joined their visit at the Blessed Family Elderly Care Facility and the National Children’s Hospital in Quezon City as part of their charity campaign for the Christmas Season.
FPJ’s Batang Quiapo airs Monday to Friday at 8 PM via Kapamilya Channel, A2Z, TV5, iWantTFC, and Kapamilya Online Live on ABS-CBN Entertainment’s YouTube channel and Facebook page.
