Mikael Daez renews with GMA Network

-

Mikael Daez renewed his contract with GMA Network last May 11.

“I love it here. A big factor for that is, I’ve grown here,” the actor said. “Going on my seventh year in showbiz, ang dami ko ng friends. It feels good when you mix your work and personal life. Your work is your life already. Nag-e-enjoy talaga ako.”

Mikael is one of the lead stars of the Afternoon Prime series “Legally Blind.” He said that he enjoys working with everyone on set and he feels challenged with his character’s transforma­tion. From being Grace’s (Janine Gutierrez) knight-in-shining armor, Edward became drugdepend­ent because of his brother William’s (Marc Abaya) manipulati­ve ways.

“Hindi ko alam na mangyayari ito sa character ko. I am super thankful because they gave me an opportunit­y to do something challengin­g.

I am even more thankful dahil Direk

Ricky [Davao] and the whole cast, they’ve been supporting me, at ang laking bagay nun. I think we’ve enjoyed and we’ve done our best to portray our characters in their truest sense.”

Senior Vice President Lilybeth

G. Rasonable has nothing but praises for Mikael.

“We noticed him in a commercial and we asked him to come in because we saw a lot of potential in him. We invested in him, in time, in giving him projects that would build him up. For his part, he improved as an actor and host, and it was a mutual decision to partner together. We are very glad that he’s happy with

GMA. Sabi nga niya sa akin, he’s not going anywhere, and we’re very gratified. Tayo rin naman, we will always be here to support him.” (PR)
