Atom Araullo on GMA: "This the best place..."

Jerome Ponce Plays The Perfect Son In 'The Good Son'. Is He Their Dad Albert Martinez' Murderer?

JEROME PONCE is not the original choice for the role of Enzo, Joshua Garcia's hot-headed half brother in "The Good Son", but Elmo Magalona, who begged off along with Janella Salvador. How did he get the role?  "I took the audition," he says. "Actually, marami kami. Pinagawa ako ng eksena with Joshua, nagbatuhan kami ng linya. Siempre, I'm glad na ako ang napili. Maganda yung role kasi si Joshua ang good son, si Nash Aguas ang lonely son, at ako yung perfect son kasi I'm doing very good in school, tapos top athlete pa ako and I'm being groomed to be an executive sa company ng aming family."

How is it being paired with ex-GF Elisse Joson? It's said they had a bad breakup because Elisse's parents didn't approve of him. Being an only child, Elisse dutifully obeyed her parents and she's now more identified with Mccoy de Leon who's paired with her in "The Good Son".


"Okay lang naman," Jerome replies. "When I got the job, hindi ko tinanong kung sino ba ang mga makakasama ko. But when I found out na magiging magkakatrabaho kami, iniisip ko na lang part of our job ito at kung anuman ang mga nangyari before, you should not allow yourself na maapektuhan noon. Chill lang. We just have to be professional about it. Sa set naman, kapag nagkikita kami, we're civil. We smile at each other. Basta ang mas concern ko, yung maging maayos at mapaganda yung work ko."

"The Good Son" will start as a family drama but later on, there will be a twist in the story. Albert Martinez as the father is initially believed to have died due to heart attack, but later on, there will be a shocking twist as the autopsy will show that he was deliberately poisoned by one of his sons.
