Three rising talents under GMA Sparkle — “Mga Batang Riles” stars Anton Vinzon and Raheel Bhyria, and “Sparkle Campus Cutie” winner Mad Ramos — are joining the cast of the youth-oriented series “MAKA: Next Chapter.”
These three fresh faces, collectively known as “The B-Boys,” are set to bring new dynamics and plenty of kilig to the beloved MAKA barkada.
Stepping into the role of Anton Mendoza, Anton Vinzon is a confident, charismatic Grade 12 transfer student at MAKA Academy. As the leader of “The B-Boys” basketball trio, he’s a star athlete and online sensation used to the spotlight. Yet beneath his perfect smile and swagger, Anton quietly longs for a complete home.
Raheel Bhyria plays Raheel Perez, the strategic mind of “The B-Boys.” He is a basketball whiz with a secret passion for science fiction, coding, and numbers. He uses basketball as his shield, a place where his intelligence and true self aren’t questioned.
Fresh from being hailed as Sparkle GMA Artist Center’s first-ever Ultimate Campus Cutie, Mad Ramos will surely charm viewers in his acting debut as Mad Sarmiento. The stylish and energetic third member of “The B-Boys,” Mad is a former star athlete and viral Taratok celebrity. Loyal to his friends and a self-proclaimed mama’s boy, Mad brings heart and excitement to every game.
These Sparkle heartthrobs join “MAKA” mainstays Zephanie, Marco Masa, Ashley Sarmiento, Josh Ford, Elijah Alejo, Chanty, John Clifford, Olive May, Shan Vesagas, Sean Lucas, Bryce Eusebio, Bangus Girl, Jennie Gabriel and Gladys Reyes.
“MAKA: Next Chapter” airs every Saturday, 4:45 p.m. on GMA.
