Coco Martin is a versatile Filipino actor, director, and filmmaker widely recognized for his record-breaking run as the lead star of FPJ’s Ang Probinsyano, which dominated Philippine television for seven years. After the historic success of the long-running action series, he took a short break before returning to primetime to lead another hit show, FPJ’s Batang Quiapo. Known for his gritty acting style and hands-on involvement in production, Martin has also built a reputation as a creative force behind the camera. He is now set to headline the upcoming light action-drama Sigabo alongside his real-life partner, Julia Montes.
In another report, real-life partners Coco Martin and Julia Montes have finally offered viewers a first glimpse of their highly anticipated television comeback, Sigabo. The new Kapamilya series is expected to take over the prestigious primetime slot currently held by Batang Quiapo. Unlike Coco’s previous heavy and intense action dramas, the actor revealed that the project will lean toward a lighter tone. The show aims to combine action, comedy, and romance, creating a more playful and entertaining viewing experience for audiences.
Meanwhile, Julia Montes also shared that she prepared extensively for the role, undergoing intensive physical training to keep up with the fast-paced nature of the series. Her preparation included stunt work and motorcycle handling to match the dynamic action scenes planned for the show. Julia has praised Coco’s original concept for Sigabo, noting its fresh approach to storytelling. The series will follow an episodic format featuring different missions each week, while Coco also plans to bring in a surprising mix of comedians and new artists to join the cast, promising viewers action, creativity, and a new style of primetime storytelling.
