JC de Vera Soon To Be a Kapamilya?

In the past few years, JC de Vera has established himself as one of the most promising new talents in a series of TV dramas on GMA -7 which has discovered and groomed him. He showed his versatility in the four-episode Obra in which he played four different, challenging roles and easily acquitted himself.

His last soap was Lalola as the leading man of Rhian Ramos.

His contract with GMA is expiring on March but no news yet on what will be his next project.

According to Philstar's Funfare, JC is turning Kapamilya soon. Heard that his first assignment with ABS-CBN will be a soap with Judy Ann Santos, to be followed by another one with Shaina Magdayao.

"I have no idea sa plano ni Tita Annabelle dahil sa March pa mag-i-end ang contract ko sa GMA-7. Personally, ayokong lumipat. Para sa akin, dito ako nakilala at ayokong hindi maging loyal sa GMA-7. Sila ang nag-buildup sa akin at ayokong ibang network ang makinabang sa pagbi-buildup sa akin.

Anuman ang maging desisyon ni Tita Annabelle, rerespetuhin ko. May work pa naman yata ako kahit ilipat ako." according to JC.

Annabelle Rama [his manager] still remained mum about the issue.
