Andrea Brillantes is stepping into more mature roles, as seen in her upcoming scenes with Jake Cuenca in Batang Quiapo. A teaser from ABS-CBN’s Dreamscape Entertainment revealed a bold transformation for the actress, featuring a steamy kissing scene with Cuenca.
In the clip, Brillantes appears in a red lingerie dress, approaching Cuenca in a bathtub before engaging in an intense kiss. The scene marks a significant shift in her career as she moves away from teen roles into more complex characters.
Brillantes expressed her readiness for this transition, emphasizing that maturity in acting goes beyond being daring or sexy. “For me, it’s about leveling up and working alongside industry veterans,” she shared.
Joining the new cast lineup are Albert Martinez, Angel Aquino, Michael De Mesa, Celia Rodriguez, and Chanda Romero, among others. Their first appearance in Batang Quiapo is set for March 3.
