Princess Punzalan Back In Town For A New Movie, 'Diyos-Diyosan', And For A Soap, 'The Story Of Us'

LAST YEAR, we interviewed Princess Punzalan on the set of GMA-7’s “Yagit” where she played Alessandra de Rossi’s villainous lawyer sister. She only taped for a couple of weeks then returned to the U.S. where she is based and works as a nurse.

Now, ABS-CBN got her to play another villain role in “Story of Us”. She sort of goes back to her roots here as it’s also in ABS-CBN where she first made her mark as a contravida, the evil Celina, in “Mula sa Puso”. Princess is married to an American and they have a daughter, now two years old, who she brought with her to the Philippines. “Siempre, priority ko pa rin ang family ko,” she says.

Princess has also finished a new movie, “Diyos-Diyosan”, written and directed by Cesar Evangelista Buendia, which is socially relevant as it’s about Philippine politics and a perfect eye-opener for viewers in the coming elections. She co-stars with John Prats, Kiko Estrada and Tirso Cruz III. This will open in theaters on April 27, two weeks before we go out and vote for the election.
