TV5’s superhero series titled Kidlat is airing soon this January, reason why you’ve been seeing those big ads on EDSA. Also, the Kapatid Network has released a one-minute, thirty-second trailer of the series on Christmas day which allowed us to have an idea of where Kidlat’s powers came from, and a glimpse on how the villains look like.
Kidlat stars Kapatid hunk Derek Ramsay. His navy blue and yellow superhero costume was designed by a Hollywood-based designer who worked on X-Men and Daredevil.
TV5 has recently released a teaser for the upcoming superhero series Kidlat.
Derek Ramsay will play the title role in his first full series since he became a Kapatid. He is joined in the main cast by Wendell Ramos, Ritz Azul, Nadine Samonte and Baron Geisler.
Derek Ramsay is set to topbill Kidlat, an upcoming superhero series on TV5.
Kidlat will be Derek’s first full series since he transferred to the Kapatid network. He last acted on television via ABS-CBN’s Magkaribal in 2010.
The remake of the 90s drama Valiente will air second week of February on TV5. It will replace the series Glamorosa which is currently on its last few episodes.
The remake stars JC De Vera as Gardo Valiente and Oyo Boy Sotto as Theo Braganza. Gardo was originally played by Tirso Cruz III. Theo, on the other hand, was done by Michael de Mesa who is also included in the remake. This time, he plays the role of Gardo's father, Damian Valiente.
TV5 has released the full trailer of Nora Aunor's Philippine television comeback, Sa Ngalan ng Ina. The miniseries will premiere on October 3, 2011 at 9:00 PM on the Kapatid network.
Sa Ngalan ng Ina will only run for five weeks. It has been said that a big company has bought the entire pilot and succeeding episodes of the miniseries, reason why it will be shown with no commercial breaks. I'm just not sure if this big company has bought the entire series or just the pilot and the succeeding ones (the first week, perhaps?).
Nora Aunor is joined in the miniseries by her ex-husband, Christopher de Leon, and their child, Ian de Leon. Also in the cast are Bembol Roco, Rosanna Roces, Eugene Domingo, Nadine Samonte, Alwyn Uytingco, Edgar Allan Guzman, and Eula Caballero.

TV5 has already released a teaser for their upcoming television series, The Sisters, which is Nadine Samonte's first project in the Kapatid network.
The StarStruck alum will portray a dual role of twins in the said series. One good and one bad. Agua Bendita much? Yes, of course, because The Sisters was also created by Rod Santiago, creator of Agua Bendita and Buhawi Jack. All three were first published as comics novels. Agua and Buhawi were first two to be adapted on television by ABS-CBN.

Nadine Samonte is now with TV5 and she's starring in her first project with the Kapatid network – a drama series titled The Sisters which will be directed by ace director Bb. Joyce Bernal.
Talks about the StarStruck alum's transfer to another network surfaced last week. She was said to be choosing between ABS-CBN and TV5. The Kapamilya network was supposedly offering her the lead role in the Esperanza remake with Piolo Pascual as her leading man. The Kapatid network, on the other hand, was also said to offer her with one of the lead roles in The Sisters.
Nadine Samonte, one of the stars of the recently-concluded GMA-7 afternoon soap My Lover, My Wife, is rumored to be transferring network after not renewing her contract with her mother studio.
Samonte, who was discovered when she joined the Kapuso network's StarStruck, is reportedly being offered lead roles in major soap operas by TV5 and ABS-CBN – the Kapatid network with The Sisters and the Kapamilya network with the remake of hit 90s teleserye Esperanza.
Originally played by Judy Ann Santos, the role of Esperanza is a bigger opportunity for Nadine to showcase her acting capabilities. And not only that, the rumored leading man would be no less than Piolo Pascual! How could she say no to that? According to reports, Piolo will reprise the role originally played by Wowie De Guzman.
Piolo had also been part of the original Esperanza. He played the role of Bryan and it actually started the Judy Ann-Piolo loveteam.
