In an announcement on Saturday, it was revealed that the respected Head of Dreamscape Entertainment at ABS-CBN Deo Endrinal has passed away at the age of 60.
The heartbreaking news was conveyed by his son, PJ, through a Facebook post:
“This has to be the hardest caption that I will ever post. Thank you daddy for everything, you have been the best father not just to me but to everyone that has known you. We will always remember how fortunate we are that you were in our lives. For now, Rest in Paradise Daddy, I love you so so much.”
Endrinal, an executive producer, writer, and creative director, left an indelible mark on the entertainment landscape, contributing significantly to the success of hit TV series such as ‘FPJ’s Batang Quiapo,’ ‘Dirty Linen,’ ‘Linlang,’ ‘Flower of Evil,’ and ‘The Broken Marriage Vow.’
Dreamscape Entertainment, the platform through which Endrinal showcased his visionary leadership and dedication to storytelling, issued a statement mourning the loss of a beloved leader. They extended their heartfelt condolences to the grieving family.
Colleagues, actors, and close friends who had the privilege of collaborating with Deo Endrinal have come forward, offering their sympathies and reflecting on the profound impact he had on the Philippine entertainment industry.
Shocking. RIP, Deo. https://t.co/ihBSm2TM6S

One of my mind-blown realizations about our backyard was that Dreamscape Entertainment had the same initials as its head.
What a sudden loss. RIP to one of ABS-CBN Entertainment’s creative pillars. https://t.co/LM4JJdZmrr

Deo Endrinal, salamat sa lahat! Sinimulan mo ang pagtitiwala sa akin nung 1992 sa “Showbiz Lingo” hanggang sunud-sunod na ang mga teleseryeng kabilang ako. Salamat, Deo! Mahal kita.💔💔💔

Sir Deo you changed so many lives, helped so many people. I would know because he is one of the reasons why I am where I am right now. Pinag katiwalaan niya ako sa mga project na meron ang Dreamscape. Sir Deo, your legacy will live on FOREVER. We will look after Peej, don’t worry…
