Do you know the movie Kambal Sa Uma? No?
It’s a 1979 film directed by the late Joey Gosiengfiao top billed by actress Rio Locsin and actor Al Tantay. It’s about twin sisters ‘Ella and Vira’ who were pinaglihi in rats. So when they were born the sisters both possess a rat’s characteristics.
After three decades, the movie will have its TV remake via ABS-CBN’s afternoon drama series. And Rio admits she was really surprised the first time she heard of the news.
“Kasi parang wala namang nagre-revive ng ganitong klase ng istorya. Usually drama ang nire-revive. Pero para i-revive ito, ibig sabihin, maganda at gusto nilang makita ng bagong henerasyon. Sa tinagal-tagal ng panahon walang nagre-remake, ngayon pa lang siya gagawin. Tingnan natin kung ano ang epekto nito sa kabataan ngayon,” says Rio
Kambal Sa Uma was based on a comic book of the same title. In the original movie, Rio played the dual role of the twin but now in its TV remake, the actress was very happy to announce that she will be playing the mother of the twin which will be portrayed by Melissa Ricks and Shaina Magdayao.
