Brace yourself for another original fantaserye only from GMA Kapuso soon. “Sugo” will lift spirits and maybe even a few eyebrows.

Matinee idol, Richard Guietterez plays the highly challenging, leading man role. His new leading lady, pretty Taiwanese actress, Joe Chien will be working with cute Richard for long tapings to come.

There has been chemistry this early on and the team up is well working for the two. Joe finds Richard hot... and vice versa.

Sugo revolves around a legend that in a hidden labyrinth deep in a Philippine mountain range, an ancient tribal mummy is buried. Apo Apo Abukay was once a powerful chieftain who abused his magical powers. He lies at rest, just waiting for the right person to bring him to life again.

The shadows also whisper that in every generation, there is a girl whose blood shall be the key to awaken Apo Apo Abukay. She who brings him to life shall have immense dark powers. This key, it is said, shall come from the line of Apo Abukay’s wife. They are called the BINHIL-AN.

Standing in the way of Apo Apo Abukay’s awakening are the KARAG-AYAN. It is their mission is to kill the key and prevent Apo Abukay from coming to life again. For many generations and through many eras they have always succeeded…until now.

And so begins the story of Sugo, GMA’s latest venture into the tele-fantasya genre which guarantees an action-packed adventure that will keep you at the edge of your seat.

Many decades are encompassed as the story of the first Sugo and the first Key are brought to the fore. The tale will take you into the heart of the deep mountains… and across the ocean to mystic China.

SUGO will take viewers on a wondrous journey filled with mystery and action. In it, Richard Gutierrez steps into the roles of Miguel and Amante. They are twins -- one becomes the gatekeeper and slayer, the other becomes the protector of the key. Raised separately they are unaware of each other’s existence.

Joining him as Mei Li is Taiwan star Joe Chen (Joanne Zheng Zhi Qiao) who appeared in the popular Chinovelas My MVP Valentine and A Promise of Love at the Dolphin Bay, both of which were aired by GMA.

The cast of Sugo reads like a Who’s Who in the entertainment industry. Not the least of them are Lorna Tolentino as Amelia, a direct descendant of Karag-ayan who marries a descendant of the Binhil-an; Ronaldo Valdez as Arando, the labyrinth’s gatekeeper; Leo Martinez as Father Francis, who teaches Miguel all he knows about the art of war, and Gardo Versoza in his big return to the small screen as Apo Apo Abukay, the evil chieftain that lies in restless slumber. The younger set includes Chynna Ortaleza, Paolo Contis, JC de Vera, and Julie Anne Lee.

Catch SUGO when it airs on GMA… and find yourself in the middle of an ageless war between those that would protect the world, and those that would destroy it.
