CHRISTOPHER DE LEON is having a grand time playing chief villain Nero in “Captain Barbell”. “Iba ang challenge ng role ko as the leader of the bad guys as I want to demolish the indestructible Liga ng Kalayaan headed by
Richard Gutierrez. I start to do this by targeting the weaker members of the Liga,” he says. “Our group abducts Hekki (
Marky Lopez) and Janna (
Solenn Heussaff) to serve as bait for Captain Barbell, while Anino (
Mike Tan) agrees to help exterminate the ever-growing power of the Liga even if his own sister Blade Girl (Bea Binene) is a part of it.”
This week also introduces guest stars Jennylyn Mercado as Rose and Dino Guevarra as Dan, a wealthy couple who want to adopt Lelay (Jillian Ward) for their own evil motives. Captain Barbell thus faces a difficult situation: choosing to save the world or to keep Lelay, the only family he has.
