\"\"<\/p>\n

The actor, who is marking his 19th year in show business, said the series aligns with his personal advocacy of choosing projects that promote social awareness, spark conversation, and empower viewers.<\/p>\n

\u201cLagi kong nirerequest sa ABS na pag may proyekto ako ay sana may social awareness at sana may mapupulot na aral yung mga tao pag pinanood nila because maraming distractions these days. We have scamming, we have social media, everything,\u201d Gerald shared.<\/p>\n

Adding more excitement to the series is the return of actress Jessy Mendiola, who makes her teleserye comeback after six years. \u201cSins of the Father\u201d also marks her onscreen reunion with Gerald, more than a decade after they starred in the 2011 drama \u201cBudoy.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cNatutuwa ako kasi no\u2019ng last ko siyang nakatrabaho, ang babata pa namin. Ang dami nang nangyari sa mga buhay namin, and I\u2019m just really happy to be working with Gerald again,\u201d Jessy said.<\/p>\n

\u201cSins of the Father\u201d is a gripping story about a bank manager named Samuel Trinidad, played by Gerald, whose life will turn upside down after the untimely death of his estranged father, who was involved in a scam.<\/p>\n

Esteemed director FM Reyes, who is taking the helm of the series with Bjoy Balagtas, is in full support of Gerald\u2019s goal to make a socially relevant and timely teleserye.<\/p>\n

\u201cHindi naman kaila na that\u2019s what\u2019s been happening sa hirap ng buhay, maraming manloloko, and I think malaking ginagampanan no\u2019n yung request ni Gerald na gagawa po ako ng project na may social relevance. His concern for the society is not just for showbizness. During moments of disasters you can see him saving people. It comes out naturally,\u201d shared Direk FM.<\/p>\n

Direk Bjoy, meanwhile, talked about the fresh and intriguing premise of the Kapamilya teleserye.<\/p>\n
