Angel Locsin is more than ready for her teleserye comeback after five years.
She is gearing up for ABS-CBN's upcoming series, The General's Daughter.
Through her Instagram post yesterday, January 4, Angel promoted the teaser of her new Kapamilya teleserye. Her caption summed up the past five years of her life when she did not have her own teleserye.
She wrote, "2015 challenged me.
"2016 broke me.
"2017 changed me.
"2018 opened my eyes.
"2019 I’M COMING BACK.
"After 5 years.... This is Angel Locsin, reporting for duty as Rhian Bonifacio."
Angel did not explain why she felt "challenged" in 2015 and why she felt "broken" in 2016.
However, she emphasized that she is "COMING BACK" this 2019 as Rhian Bonifacio on television.
The General's Daughter is Angel's first full-length teleserye after five years.
The last TV series that she top-billed was the 2014 hit series, The Legal Wife.
Her last teleserye apperance was in the 2017 fantasy series, La Luna Sangre, where she played a special role as Jacintha Magsaysay.
Angel is also set to celebrate her 12th year with ABS-CBN in 2019, after transferring from GMA-7 in late 2007.
The other TV shows that Angel top-billed in the Kapamilya network were: Lobo (2008), Only You (2009), and Imortal (2010-2011).
She was also part of the sitcom Todamax (2012-2014) and served as a judge in Pilipinas Got Talent seasons 5 and 6.
The General's Daughter is also Angel's first teleserye under ABS-CBN's Dreamscape Entertainment, as her previous teleseryes were produced by Star Creatives unit.
