Geoff Eigenmann Signs Contract With GMA

Geoff Eigenmann signed a contract with GMA 7 yesterday, March 11, 2009. No more a Kapamilya, Geoff says he left ABS-CBN peacefully, not burning any bridges. He doesn't have any existing contract with ABS-CBN, anyway, so he's free to sign with GMA. With regards to Star Magic, he says he was co-managed by the said management arm of ABS-CBN, but he never signed any contract regarding that.

Present in the contract signing were his mother, actress Gina Alajar, his manager Perry Lansingan, GMA execs Atty. Felipe Gozon, Mr. Jimmy Duavit, and Ms. Wilma Galvante.

Geoff says he feels very good to be coming back to the Kapuso network, where he actually started his career. He also says that he didn't transfer because of lack of projects because ABS-CBN offered him an acting job even before the talks of his transfer to GMA came about. But as his manager says, they accepted the Obra role instead.

Speaking of Obra, Geoff says he doesn't mind if he wasn't the first choice for the role. It can be noted that it was first given to JC de Vera, but his manager had to pull him out of the project. It landed on his lap, according to Geoff, and he will do whatever he can to give justice to the role.

He's talking like he really loves his craft. A role is a role and an actor will shine in whatever role he's in if he gives it his all. He's a son of two serious actors, anyway. What can we expect?

And is Geoff worried about getting enough projects now that he's with GMA? The answer is no. He is sure GMA will take a very good care of him.
