The Jesuit Communications finally announced the cast for the historical film ‘GomBurZa.’ Dante Rivero will play Padre Mariano Gomez, Cedrick Juan will be Padre José Burgos and Enchong Dee will act as Padre Jacinto Zamora.
The film will focus on the story of the three Catholic priests who were killed in 1872 due to charges of subversion.
The cast will also include Epi Quizon, Khalil Ramos, Jaime Fabregas, and Carlitos Siguion-Reyna among others.
Producer Pauline Mangilog-Saltarin said that they can now finally exhale as they’ve found the perfect cast after rounds of script reading and screen testing. “We are very confident that they will deliver and fulfill their roles to the best of their ability,” she said.
The film will be directed by Pepe Diokno and the screenplay is written by Rody Vera.
