Jolo Revilla, the son of Senator Bong Revilla (who also impregnated Rosanna Roces’ daughter) is today being called the ‘next action star’ because apparently he is doing many of his stunt in the ABS-CBN’s tele serye, “Pepeng Agimat”


Is Jolo Revilla the Philippine’s next big action star?

The 22-year-old actor, currently the lead star of ABS-CBN’s series “Pepeng Agimat”, has been executing action scenes extremely well, according to the show’s director.

This has led some to note that Revilla is an action superstar in the making.

In an inteview, “Pepeng Agimat” director Dondon Santos had nothing but praises for Revilla, who is the second eldest son of actor-politician Sen. Ramon “Bong Revilla Jr. and Lani Mercado.

“Bumilib ako kay Jolo. Hindi ko inasahang magiging maayos agad o smooth ang kalalabasan ng action scenes. (I was impressed by Jolo. I wasn’t expecting the action scenes to turn out so smoothly),” the director said.

Santos said the young actor is a natural when it comes to following instructions and executing action sequences.

Like father, like son

“Ang bilis niya makakuha ng instructions. Mukhang nagmana nga si Jolo sa kanyang Lolo (Ramon Revilla Sr.) at ama (Bong Revilla) pagdating sa acting. Pwedeng maging action star,” the TV director said.

(He learns instructions very fast. It looks like he’s taken after his grandfather, Ramon Revilla Sr., and his dad, Bong Revilla, when it comes to acting. Jolo can be an action star.)

Sen. Revilla recently starred in the fantasy action film “Panday”, while Ramon Revilla Sr. had played superhuman characters in the 1970s version of “Pepeng Agimat” and “Nardong Putik.”

Santos said viewers can expect more of Revilla’s thrilling action sequences in the remaining episodes of “Pepeng Agimat.”

This Saturday (December 19), an action-packed episode awaits the followers of “Pepeng Agimat” as Pepe continues to fight against the wicked henchmen.

Watch the action moves of Jolo in Pepeng Agimat, this Saturday on ABS-CBN after Cinema FPJ.
