Halik actress Almira Muhlach returns to GMA-7 after 12 years

Actress Almira Muhlach, who has been with ABS-CBN since 2014, will be seen in a GMA-7 drama series this 2019.

She is part of the upcoming afternoon drama series titled Madrasta.

A story conference for the series was held last July 5, which was attended by its cast members.

Madrasta will be top-billed by Kapuso homegrown talents Juancho Trivino, Arra San Agustin, Phytos Ramirez, and Thea Tolentino.

Madrasta is Almira's comeback teleserye with GMA-7. Her last Kapuso project was the 2007 action-themed series Lupin, starring Richard Gutierrez.

Almira temporarily took a break from showbiz, and returned to acting in 2014 via ABS-CBN's Forevermore.

Her last teleserye was the prime-time series Halik, where she played Helen, the manipulative mother of Sam Milby.

Almira is known for sharing scenes with Halik's trending character Jade, played by Yam Concepcion.

Last July 8, Almira gave a teaser for her look as Shirley in Madrasta on her Instagram account.

She wrote in her caption, "Meet Shirley... A new character for me to portray soon. Kontrabida or not, What do you guys think?!!"

Madrasta is also Thea's replacement project after her supposed prime-time series, Rosang Agimat, was shelved.

Last June 8, an accident happened on the set of Rosang Agimat involving Eddie Garcia. The veteran actor died on June 20, 2019.

Gladys Reyes, Manilyn Reynes, and Kelvin Miranda complete the cast members of Madrasta.

An airing date has yet to be announced for Madrasta.
