ABS-CBN's hit television series "Imortal" is coming to an end this Friday, April 29.
In an interview with abs-cbnNEWS.com, Angel Locsin, John Lloyd Cruz's leading lady in the show, extended her gratitude to all the viewers of "Imortal."
"Maraming maraming salamat po sa patuloy niyong pagsuporta ng 'Imortal'. (Biyernes) ay huling gabi na namin. Ito na kung hindi niyo pa nae-experience ang mundo ng 'Imortal' o kung sakaling nakapasok na kayo sa mundo ng 'Imortal' eh huling beses na ito. Kaya sulitin natin. Sabay-sabay nating panoorin (ang ending)," Locsin said Thursday during the party for Avon's 125th year.
She also admitted that it's a bittersweet feeling for her now that their show is set to end.
"Mixed emotions po kasi almost one year po namin tinrabaho ang 'Imortal' at ma-miss namin ang isa't isa. Sa set nga nagkakabiruan na. Kahit pack-up na, hindi makaalis kasi nagkakaroon ng separation anxiety," Locsin said.
"Imortal" tells the story of how great love can stop the centuries-old war between werewolves and vampires.
Lia (Locsin), who is half human, half werewolf, was out to redeem the honor of her parents. She found herself falling in love, though, with Mateo (Cruz), the next most powerful vampire.
As fate dictates, the two were born with special birthmarks symbolizing their power. Lia and Mateo were destined to become mortal enemies, but love changed everything.
The pilot week was directed by Chito Roño, who was behind the box-office horror films “Feng Shui” and “Sukob.” Also at the helm of “Imortal” are directors Trina Dayrit ("Tayong Dalawa") and Jerry Lopez Sineneng ("Kahit Isang Saglit").
“Imortal” also stars Maricar Reyes, Rico Blanco, Jomari Yllana, Jake Roxas, Vivian Velez, Johnny Revilla, and Jaime Fabregas.
Show's ending from viewers' eyes
It's a given: "Imortal" will never be a hit without the support of its viewers. Some of them lost no time in telling abs-cbnNEWS.com how they would want the show to end.
"Patayin na si Rico Blanco ng bonggang-bongga. Tapos gusto ko either mamatay sila pareho o isa sa kanila mamatay para sad ending," said Pepper Cruz, 24, from Quezon City, referring to Rico Blanco's monster character.
Company receptionist Pam Castillo said she wants a peaceful ending. "Siyempre 'yung mabuo ang pamilya ni John Lloyd at Angel. Ang mga bampira at lobo sana magkabati na sila," Castillo said.
Fabegenne Pimentel, 22, who works at a law firm, said she wants to see the death of another antagonist, Magnus (played by Jake Roxas).
"Gusto kong mawala na ng tuluyan si Magnus. Siya kasi talaga ang masama," Pimentel said.
"Magtatagumpay silang mag-asawa. At mai-de-deliver niya ang baby nila. Tapos peace between the lobos and the vampires. Tapos 'yung baby, siya ang magru-rule na sa vampires and lobos. Siya na ang itinakda at punong bantay," Lia Cruz said.
"Imortal", which started airing last October 4, will be replaced by "100 Days to Heaven" on ABS-CBN's prime time block.
