Through the years, other batches were introduced and the harvest included Piolo Pascual, John Lloyd Cruz, Kristine Hermosa, Jericho Rosales, Jodi Santamaria, etc. A lot of stars are introduced but as the saying goes, many are called but only a few are chosen to succeed. Some were never really given good breaks so they quickly faded away back to oblivion and anonymity. Now, Star Magic launches its latest batch that introduces the lucky 13 new talents, 5 boys and 8 girls, some of whom are not really new anymore.
Let's start with the ones who we've already seen in past projects.

| Anna Luna |
Anna Luna, 22 - She has appeared in many indie and mainstream films, notably in "Maestra" fo which she won the best actress award at an international filmfest held in Venezuela. It's her performance in "Changing Partners" that made Mr. M notice her enough to ask her to join Star Magic.

| Tony Labrusca |
Tony Labrusca, 22 - He didn't make it in Pinoy Boyband Superstar but he was cast in "La Luna Sangre" and that became his breakout role as the werewolf Jake. This made people take notice of him. He has also recorded his first single, "Tanging Ikaw".
