Will blood be thicker than water in ‘Las Hermanas’?
A tale of family and sisterhood awaits viewers in new series “Las Hermanas” starring Yasmien Kurdi, Thea Tolentino, and Faith Da Silva as the Manansala sisters Dorothy, Minnie, and Scarlet respectively. It airs weekdays after “Eat Bulaga” on GMA Afternoon Prime.
Dorothy, Minnie, and Scarlet’s lives are turned upside down when their father died and left their family bankrupt. From their ostentatious and glamorous home, they had to move to a fishing village in the province with their mother. But another scandal ravages their family when their mother was suddenly arrested for several counts of estafa.
Lost and still grieving, the three sisters will try to take matters into their own hands. But their personalities and dreams clash and one unfortunate incident follows another. Suddenly, sacrifices have to be made and not all of them are willing to make it. When worse comes to worst, can Dorothy, Minnie, and Scarlet prove that blood is indeed thicker than water?
“Las Hermanas” is made more exciting by the Kapuso comeback of Albert Martinez as Lorenzo Ilustre, the charming, self-made businessman who will captivate the heart of Scarlet and be the root of the sisters’ falling out.
Also in the cast are Jason Abalos as Gabriel Lucero, a handsome fish trader who eventually becomes Dorothy’s boyfriend; Jennica Garcia as Brenda Macario, Gabriel’s ex-girlfriend; Lucho Ayala as Ronald de Guzman, a street-smart orphan who will catch the interest of Minnie; veteran actresses Madeleine Nicolas as Josefa Manansala, the three sisters’ loving grandmother; Melissa Mendez as Divine Sarmiento, Josefa’s close friend; Rita Avila as Mildred Manansala, the matriarch of the Manansala family; and Leandro Baldemor as Fernando Manansala, the three sisters’ father who will meet a tragic end.
